I love the way you've done the skin of Humpback Whale as well as the the line work of Humpback him/herself. The colours are stunning as well.

Aw awesome, actually the skin itself started out as a mistake, and then I fixed it. Sometimes the best looking things start out as mistakes.

Lovely work! Great job on the whale's pose and colouring. I also like how the background patterns are positioned - makes it look like it's under the ocean, and the swirls coming off its head give me an image of a whale spurting water out. Nice little touches.

The swirly water is the best. It's so stylish.
The whale has so many different colors; it reminds me of a kaleidoscope.

I adore that. I love the colours and the sort of stylized, pudgy look of the whale. Instant

Oh how divine. I love the textural effect to the colouring of its skin, and how the graphic elements represent water so beautifully
