Albino Kraken

Since this week’s Illustration Friday topic is “punchline”, I figured it was a good time to post my latest comic.

This week’s Illustration Friday topic is actually one that I’ve already visited on occasion (baby dragon, baby gryphon), and even this one, while new, is based on a sketch I did almost ten years ago. Rather than just post the sketch, though, I thought it might be nice to take this opportunity to practice getting a somewhat painterly style out of Photoshop. It sort of worked, I guess.

This week’s Illustration Friday topic, worry, describes the appropriate response one should have when approached by a shadowy figure wielding a rubber duck.

So, I get to be efficient here. Not only is mermaid our current topic for Barefoot Kraken, but it also fits in nicely with this week’s Illustration Friday topic, “Tales and Legends”.
