So this is my tied for favorite painting I've ever done. It is a mosasaur. This painting is like 3 feet tall. I should have shaded the face last but I didn't and so it kept staring at me. 2 color painting, as it turns out, is like five thousand times easier than infinity color painting. It seems obvious but I never thought about it. I think I want to make a few other skeletal extinct aquatic megafauna creatures on canvases the same size. I am hoping that horrible black blotch (where I put the tail at first) will go away when it dries.

Wow, very nice. It looks really realistic and matches the background perfectly. One of my favorite pieces you've done, hands down.
