Description One of the transients of the AT1 group, which is unlike any other transient orca groups. They differ in genetics, social behavior, roaming behavior, and vocalizations. Unfortunately, many orcas from this group disappeared in 1990, possibly due to the Exxon Valdez oil spill. This is possibly AT13.

Thanks!

That's just pencil, though I think I used a 6B for parts of it.

Thanks! I'm not entirely sure, since it's been awhile, but probably five or six hours. I remember the white bits of sun reflection were a pain, heh.

hmmm, I just read what I wrote to you and think it could be taken as somthing other than what I meant... let me try again.

Your work is so good, I see myself adding quite a number of your pieces to my favorites' folder. I hope deviantART doesn't limit that number on me.

Keep up the awesome work.
