This was such a fun project! I love being a big friendly sea monster... being in the water feels so freeing and joyful! ^w^One of my favorite games to play at the pool was chasing little rubber submarine pool toys, imagining it was a rapidly sinking or out of control submersible. I'd grab the toy in my jaws from the depths of the clear blue "sea", bringing it to the surface, & placing it ON the port as terrified but grateful sailors stumbled out onto dry land. That's basically most of what I wanna do as a kaiju! Slumber in deep underwater canyons, explore the worlds oceans, and patrol my territories to rescue sinking vessels and stranded survivors. I also wanna eat those invasive sea urchins like sunflower seeds, they look sooo crunchy and yummy! Maybe I'll make overpopulated and invasive species my main food source. I'm pretty big, I could probably balance some of it out! :p
ALT TEXT: Feral/quad Neph is sitting on their haunches, webbed paws posed to show front & back. Body is longer, almost otter-like. Legs are also otter proportioned. Their tail is as long as their body, thick like a seal or whale tail. The tailmaw at the end is a combo of a whales fluke & a leopard seals back flippers w/interlocking ridges that form a mouth when closed together. Nephs colors haven't changed except for a spot of pastel blue-green on the back of their head around their blowhole, the front of their neck/throat (ridged & expandable like a whale), & their lower belly & tail underside. Their head is more domed w/smaller eyes, somewhat orca-ish. Mawshot shows sharp interlocking leopard seal teeth, blue maw w/spots.
TEXT: Can briefly stand & sit bipedally. Mainly quadrupedal on land. Heart shaped blowhole. Uvula cavity (contracted). Prehensile uvula (extended). Forked tongue (extended). Feeding strategies: lunge feeding (surface) filter feeding (open ocean) active hunting (deep sea).

Kaiju/feral Neph is such a very cute and super huggable kaiju, I wannt give them all the pets! I'm just loving how they're just being like an adorable little puppy/cub in this and I'm hoping/ excited to see so much more of them in comics in the future, especially in your astonishingly detailed artstyle! Keep doing great!
P.S. I have a fun idea for a future concept: Kaiju/Feral Neph attacking some cold-hearted pirates, because they were trying to feed some little mouse anthro prisoners to you as sacrifices! I'm sorry I thought it was a fun idea, plus it might add some Character-LORE!
