Description and now to present to you my latest animal obsession, the gulper eel...
one of the creepiest, weirdest and most intriguing inhabitant of the deep, dark parts of the ocean....
(too much BBC Blue Planet and marine biology...)
yeah, I know the one in the drawing isn't accurate, let's skip that part.... I just wanted to have a play of shadows...

besides, you knew I had to have a deviation in my gallery with that name .... case closed....

no, really, since nobody caught the kiriban, at least I wanted to make something for you guys... now almost 7k, heh....

and thanks for your comments, lately I've been kind of lazy with the replying... not to worry, I'll be back .... (winter vacations soon, oh yeah...)

When i was a sweet little girl in middle school, I used to draw creepy deep sea fishes, including the gulper eel! So creepy, so cool.

I love how happy this is.

p-korle In reply to LuPY [2007-12-27 21:16:13 +0000 UTC]

ahahaha, yeah, I though you might like the title

I should stop with these shadows and actually draw something with normal lines and colours, starting to feel I'm neglecting those too much XD...

I should also stop using quotes from the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy..... someday...

LuPY In reply to p-korle [2007-12-28 03:47:42 +0000 UTC]

bah idk, i still thing is cool!

excellent combination if you ask me XD....

but really, even though I'm not a big sea fan, the creatures surviving in the deep sea under the light zone are damn interesting...

not quite sure....
it seems they they are somewhat related, being in the same class, though different order....

though I find the deep sea relative of the gulper eel, the swallower eel, to be much more disturbing and gruesome that both gulper and moray combined.... besides the fact it is some freaking 1,6m long....

the faces are just some mask-like shadow structures, lately I've been drawing quite a lot of those....

cool subject to play with, you never know what might come out of it

makes you wonder about the rest though....

when i saw the title i was just thinking "has P-korle become a godzilla fan?" XD

Gulper eel, never heard of it but sounds cool. and the shadows are pretty cool to look at.

p-korle In reply to emolsifier [2007-12-18 18:49:02 +0000 UTC]

godzilla? hehehe, nope, just some more hitchhikers' quotes....

As for the gulper eel, I would advise google, though most of them seem like they came from an alien movie, so here is a rather nice one: [link]
