There's not much time left and I'm kind of slow, so I don't want to go for something too complex, so here's a what I'll probably be going for. I might change some things as I go along
Wow I love the design of the claw! Your penguin looks like he's ready to kick some butt 
@alinabeska Thanks 
I started painting!
This is amazing and I still love his face lol
Oh my god this is the funniest project I've seen, keep it up !
@nesokaiyoh @Oceane_Roh @mr_dessin Thank you all
Here's where I am right now. I still need to figure out what to do with the background, probably some sort of beach since he's a beach defender. And also I need to correct the perspective on the arm and find a design for the monster he's shooting.
Hopefully I'll manage to do all that in time 
I would assume he's pointing that gun at the shark right? Currently it looks a bit disjointed, there does need to be something between them connecting them in the composition, and the gun's perspective could be changed to point at the shark correctly (that's if I'm even reading it right lol)
I am curious tho, what are his trousers being held on by with? his feathers? xD
@nesokaiyoh Yeah, you're reading it correctly. My goal was to have him shoot the shark with a water jet, but the angle of the arm is not right. I guess another solution would be to change the position of the shark. I'll have to think a bout that.
As for the trousers, he'll have suspenders (I think that's what they're called) holding them. I just haven't painted them yet XD
Oh okay, honestly you can fix the perspective pretty easy, although it would involve some repainting of the gun itself as it's at a completely different angle than you want it to be, but facing more towards the camera should fix the entire problem 
I didn't feel like repainting the arm, so I changed the creature's placement instead. I thought that making an octoshark would be more interesting than just a straight up shark. At this point I don't really know what I'm doing anymore 
I'm just trying to have fun
Lol that shark's expression is priceless, no teeth?
Thanks! No he will have teeth, I just forgot to paint them XD
OH MY GOD, everytime I see your piece it because more and more funny the octoshark is amazinh ahah
Omg you forgot to paint his teeth? xD You should definitely keep him toothless, please I love him
@Oceane_Roh Haha, thank you! I'm glad you enjoy it
@CallMeNaka @nesokaiyoh Well I already painted the teeth, but if you guys think it's better with none I'll just remove them
So I don't know if I'll manage to finish it in time since I feel like I still have a lot of polishing to do, but I'll try my best to make it at least presentable. I'm surprised I even managed to take it this far already XD
I definitely prefer him without the teeth, I think he has so much character without them xD Honestly though even with the teeth, both your characters have such fantastic personalities and I can't help but giggle when I look at your piece, it's really bringing in an element that's underused in this competition!
Without teeth.
But, it's your piece, so who am i to judge.
Any path you choose, dat toothless WIP will be there for us forever <3
@nesokaiyoh @CallMeNaka Thanks! I'm glad some people enjoyed this more light-hearted idea
So, it is far from perfect, but I'm gonna call it done.
Thank you everyone who liked and commented. It was fun to work on this painting. I wish you all the best of luck and I hope you all had a great time working on the Artwar this year
