Description An anthro orca working underwater, soldering some metal pipe. All those white dots floating around are supposed to be whatever the heck that detritus is that one sees floating around in underwater films.

I'm not happy with the coloring, but that is as far as my self-taught skills will go. I will call it "finished" just to get it out of my queue.

The underwater-breathing-apparatus thing attached over his blowhole is a very creative touch.

Anthrosaur, Why you draw often the Anthropomorphic animals with Human-likes feature ?

Hope that a plasma torch he's using not an arc welder cos you arc weld underwater without a suit you get a nasty dose of EST (electro shock therapy)!

Nice. As far as what the white things could be I think that it's plankton, since those are small animals they'd probably only show up as little dots on a film. Also seems like that fin should be a bit further down his back almost near the center of it.

Looks very nice. I like the tribal looking markings on the dorsal fin. The armor pieces are really nice too. The dotty floaty light effects are great, and I know what you mean about seeing them in underwater films. I think the color is quite good, especially the sharp highlights coming from the sparking soldering tool. The only thing I migt suggest, and I might be dead wrong, is that his tail wouldn't be lit up by the sparks, but since his tail might be to the side and back rather than straight back behind him, it could very well be getting hit by the light too. Just a random observation. Doesn't take anything away from it though. Awesome work as usual.

Good muscle orca, keep it up :3

I think it was done very well, with the exception of the "pants'' (for lack of a better word) being a bit...bulgey. O.o

Other than that, this is a great piece with wonderful details.

I like it, even if you think the coloring wasn't up to par. The composition and concept are quite nice, too

Nice, but I personally prefer the previous one for 2 things.
1- Underwater, the light wouldn't be that reflective, especially with the texture the orca's skin has.
2- It look like he's wearing a billiards ball in his trouser.

Nice anatomy neitherless.

Well, I know nothing of how light would be affected by the environment. That is why I said that it was colored as far as my skills go. I know it is bad. I don't have the knowledge to fix it.

Nevertheless, it's still good I like the details in his body too. The whole picture reminds me of the movie 'Atlantis' 83 Great job!
