Shark tail

Here's a question for ya, if a shark were big enough to swallow the sun… how long would it's tail be?

Deep in the sands of the Sahara lurk great beasts, prehistoric monsters that move through sand as though it were water.
Swimming this way, under the desert, has made them almost impossible to study. However, they have at times been spotted by the occasional wary Bedouin traveler as they breach, but why they do so is still a mystery.

Just...

...do it.

Layers

Here's a peek at something I've been fiddling with recently, you may even recognize this guy from an earlier post, I thought it suited the 'Layer' theme of Illustration Friday this week:

A giant shark in a gorilla suit (layer 1) breaking atmosphere (layer 2)

Wait 'til you see where it goes from there….

Couldn't resist using this one again…

I wish everything was this fun to draw :)

Covers

I like sharks, all the bad publicity they've been getting since 'Jaws' is a real shame.

Still, they are pretty scary and I was happy to draw them when Tom asked me to do the cover for the first issue Semiotic Cohesion a while back...

(This isn't the final cover, I changed the shuttle to a more recognisable angle)

My delight doubled when, last year, he asked me to draw issue 5's cover! Rarely does a drawing exude this much fun from end to end, what a pleasure!
