@softomon just realized I got this on my Makani art and it took me forever to get the proportions proper, I still mess up from time to time, which is rich coming from me because I grew up around killer whales and other various cetaceans in real life blah blah blah.

Being serious, try your best to use real-life photos as reference and pay attention to the photo more than the art, it's something I learned a while ago thanks to an amazing art teacher I had in highschool, 9 times out of 10 it worked for me and now I can draw killer whales and other cetaceans comfortably without worrying too much about messing up the anatomy

Posted too much homestuck as of recent, have to level it out with some whale art

Beluga! Get a load of that melon. :-)

[ID: an illustration of a white whale with a pronounced forehead. Its mouth is open in a toothy smile and it is in a joyful pose against a stylized water background. End.]

I love Risso's dolphins because they looked like someone started drawing a dolphin but ran out of time and rushed the face

"The marked similarity between the shape of the body of the Shark (above), the Ichthyosaur (centre), and Dolphin (below) does not mean that they are all related, but is only the outcome of complete adaptation to the environment, with the same mode of life (convergence)."

Prehistoric Sea Monsters. Written by Dr. Josef Augusta. Illustrated by Zdeněk Burian. 1966.
