I had the idea of showing Moby Dick, in a more serious manner. See pen sketch below.

Then I thought about what it might be like with Ahab and Moby before the 'incident'. So I had them sharing a beer together.

In the end I thought it might be wiser to just have them play a game of shuttle cock together. I mean they are sea fairing lads after all. So the sketch below was in the end the final result.

ha, these are great, nice pen sketches! Wish I could have made the event!
I love seeing your process sketches with this painting! They're almost as awesome as the painting itself.
Nice! These thumbnail drawings make me want to rummage through your sketch books.
