Very nicely done. The way you simulated the light rays in particular is very good.

Humpback :D

Thank you! You are such an amazing artist and awesome friend. But I am sure you have heard that enough times from more qualified judges than me.

They might be giants...

This is really cool! what a concept! I guess a human would be quite small in comparison

Better than porn.

Awesome, love underwater things and unlikely allies :].

Hopefully, this will be constructive:

I recommend choosing a light source and go with it. I know underwater is very reflective, but shadows will still cast (do not be afraid to push the shadows darker than you'd want!). Please refer to references such as http://www.fanimages.com/Animals/Do.....r%20Shadow.JPG (if the link works; otherwise, Google! :P ). From top to bottom, it goes from lighting to shadow, then the very underbelly is the color from the water, or ground, reflection from underneath.

I also recommend using the color "black" if you can help it.

Another would be composition; you could shave off some of the borders, especially, on the left side and a little from the bottom.

Obviously, some of this can be discarded under certain scenarios such as styles and such, but it seems you are attempting to shoot for a more painterly style, so I put in my 2 cents.

I hope that was helpful!
Still a cool looking image! I especially love the whale! :3

PS: ALWAYS use reference! :D

lol, if this wasn't a piece that took me two hours maybe i would have spent the time to do better shading XD but no, i was not going for realism with this, and I dont ever use black in images. Pure black is ugh.

DANG! You draw whales phenomenally! Beautiful work! 8D
