The title is prhaide (but the pun does not survive translation).

[catbirds]

Awww... neat shark! I looked up the pun too.

[Keep Looking]

Magestic. An excellent pride shark.

[Jitter]

Lovely shark!

[Vulpes]

Awesome shark, the expression is great, and the colours look fantastic.

[moredhel]

Thanks for all the nice comments on the shark

[SkyWhalePod]

I drew these a couple of months ago (before work got really crazy) in response to a joke JoB made about the community safe zone not having a place to quarantine an entire pod of sky whales. Since this is my 100th post (finally), here are those unfinished drawings, below the cut for tidiness.

I think until some sort of water feature is installed or made accessible, there will be a lot of lumpy water mammals just lying around resting their fins 

[moredhel]

beautiful whales espcially the hovering ones-

[Jitter]

I believe these beautiful whales can be fairly comfortable here: https://ssssforum.com/index.php?topic=1139.0

(Yeah, fresh water lakes, but you can’t have everything)

I like this little theme of ocean creatures-- the shark looks great, moredhel, the watercolors blended really nicely! And SkyWhalePod heee that's a very cool image. Like Jitter said, they will hopefully fit in just fine by the Saaima floating village 

[Vulpes]

Very cool pod of sky whales!

[thegreyarea]

Those are excellent, SkyWhalePod! The floating ones are great, particularly the shadow! And now I'm imagining people riding them... Also the "reality" image is very touching.

(I must find time to come back to the Saimaa Floating village... Is such an interesting setting. And if the whales can float (!) so they can live on fresh water.)

D'aaaawwwww.

Minor nitpick, the task in question was not just to house them (as far as someone who can float in the plenty of plane-free air above Y90 you needs "housing" in the first place) but to have them quarantined, with all the perimeter-proofing required for a controlled environment ...

And now I'm imagining people riding them...

[shudders as he remembers that attaching things (like GPS tracers) to RL whales still usually requires harpoons, thanks to water vs. air drag and according evolutionary body adaptations]
[imagines for a moment the people in the first picture trying to report to a RL, remote 911 call center that's never heard of sky whales being a thing]

"Hello? 911? There's a bunch of... flying whales! They are over the city! Send someone!"
"Sorry sir, are you in danger? And... did you just say "flying whales"!?"
"Yes! Yes! I'm fine, no danger... I suppose. They... That shadow! It's right over us!"

I never understood why agent Mulder never thought of looking for a treasure trove of evidence where those who had actual 3Ds + 3Es will almost necessarily wind up giving it ...
