Octopus attacking ship

The photo will be late- I took one but can't be bothered to download it right now. Such things happen, no one is perfect. And I was busy drawing an octopus.

A few days ago I noticed that on Linlen's blog people had been drawing octopi attacking ships. I said, can I draw one? And the reply was 'Yes.'

You know I can't resist a nautical theme.

I couldn't decide whether I wanted the drawing to remain black and white or whether I should colour it, so I scanned every stage just in case. Here are the results:

Octopus attacks ship

Octopus attacks ship (in a blue sea)

Octopus attacks ship (in full colour)

I'm really happy with all three of them- now, if I could only manage to draw the things I have actually promised people I would draw...I have three such orders on my plate and yet every time I approach them I fail. But I can draw a useless octopus just like that.

Well, we shall see, maybe this week will bring great works to my paper.

  4. Hello,

    I just wanted to let you know I got this tattooed on me (We've chatted off the FlicR Account) and here are the results:

    I was wondering if you could do more? I bought this painting this week and I would like to add on the full moon, and 'end of the earth' water. Could you do that in the same style? (Black and white?)
