So I'm not a very skilled drawer, but I practice when I get the chance, and this is one of the few drawings I'm pretty pleased with. The whole picture is 30 inches long, and was drawn with Prismacolor pencil crayons.
Might post more later. :V

Just finished this little guy:

He turned out a bit earth wormish but I think he's quite adorable. :D

I have no idea what the standard measurement is in NZ, but 30 inches would be a little over 2 ft, 76 cm, or 760 mm. :3

(little info fact here, only the U.S. uses inches, the rest of the world uses CM.)

I'm Canadian, but I primarily use inches :V I think it's a habit from being a pet hobbyist, fish/lizards/arachnids/etc are always described in inches instead of CM.

Thank you for the kind words, everyone :D

If you play any warhammer game they move in inches. Thats english too. Oh well it's still a good picture!

He's very cool :) nice work!

Growing up in Australia, at school our rulers always had cm on one side and inches on the other so most people are used to it. In fact it's still really common here to refer to someone's height in feet and inches even though we're fully metricated.

I love it :) Of course if it's a gentleman seahorse he'd have a pouch. He'd probably sport a pocket handkerchief in it or something ;)
