Based on a Sea Leviathan attacking a group of Akhlut. The thumbnail was drawn from a photo I took in Ingleton Falls, for the texture I could see in the rocks. Moving from long images to A5 hurt the composition a little but quickly came through again.
Partially phototextured. Every major part is on a separate layer for ease of change but the overlayed white seafoam complicated things a little. It was very fast to complete though, compared to the others. The idea was solid and it was mainly environment details more than difficult creature textures or poses.
Final. The seaweed at the front does not look entirely as I wanted, but the colours are pleasant and it does look rather like it fits in at the ocean. The Sea Leviathan takes main focus and the Akhlut running are noticed second. I had wanted something to show the scale of the Akhlut compared to humans, as well, for a better sense of scale, but I could not happily find somewhere to fit that in. Instead, scale has to be based on the Leviathan and the Akhlut alone, but it does show the significant difference between them and that works as the main element of the piece.
