Thank you! Yea I was looking at franklin booth for inspiration. I always wanted to try and animate clouds like these. And yes, I tend to prefer to work out the details of a drawing in the linework and keep the sketch rather rough. I find it keeps the process more interesting and the linework fresh!

Gorgeous -- the clouds remind me a bit of Franklin Booth. It seems you don't do a lot of construction/underdrawing but head straight in with exterior/contour lines?

Thank you!!! Im glad you like it. The water is a scrolling texture with some deformers applied. Basically the same way a lot of video game textures work using displacement maps. Btw the clouds work the same way, just with a different texture and more deformers.

Holy crap, lovely work. The colors are gorgeous and I think you nailed the timing on the tail flip. How'd you pull off the white foam in the water? Is that hand drawn too?
