- Chimaera (Ghost shark) - Study / drawing
I often think of fish in polka dots.
I wanted to draw more sharks this month. I thought about cartilaginous fish with polka dots.
Polka dot cartilaginous fish is too long for title, so I just named it shark, but there are exactly ray and chimera.
The size of the actual whale shark is much bigger than the zebra shark or eagle ray, but I couldn't place it too big on the canvas, so I only made it about twice as big.
I want to emphasize the polka dot pattern in this illustration, so I'm thinking of using only two or three colors without using too many colors.
I want a simple yet cute feeling. like a polka dot :D
I'm thinking about the series as well. As you know, there are so many animals with cute spotted patterns...On the one hand, I also think that update by making an animated shark sticker π₯Ή

It's easier to understand the form when you see them in motion :D

Cool! Didn't think about videos. Good idea
pikaole
I look up information (wiki), photos and videos of real animals at every stage of the study. Understanding their anatomy is the first step and fundamental.
D'yani Wood
Do you look at pictures of the animal to make sure you get the shapes right while you draw them the first time?

Whale sharks with polka dots~!
pikaole
you're right. If the time zone is right and lucky, can see it. I never saw them yet but it's definitely the closest place for me to see dolphins.Hm.... will consider going to Jejuπ

Isn't the Galapagos too perfect? I hate that it's so far from where I liveπππ
pd
oooooooooooooh. I think you can do that in the Galapagos too O:
pikaole
Yes, someday in the future! I heard that we can take a tour on a transparent bottom boat and see the fish and corals π₯Ή
pd
hope you get to go as well! the Great Barrier Reef is so cooool (I've just seen pictures haha)
pikaole
Awesome, I hope you make it happen! (My dream trip is to go to Australia and see the Great Barrier Reef)
pd
yeah seriously...definitely a dream trip!
pikaole
Oh... if you can go to the Galapagos, it must be a very special experience. There are so many wonderful animals there, I've only seen it in documentaries, and it feels like animal utopia π₯Ή
pd
hehehe these are all so cute! I love whale sharks, someday I want to go to the Galapagos and swim with them π₯Ί
