Stunning sunset! In the 18th and 19th centuries those bones were a sign that whalers survived the hunt. Thank you Rita. Goodnight ✨😊

Many explorers and whalers ended their lives in the Arctic cold and were buried there. Permafrost has preserved their burials for centuries. Svalbard has more than 800 known whalers’ graves from the 17th and 18th century.

the melon (called junk because sperm whalers couldn't get spermaceti from it) under it also serves echolocationy purposes, and is important to all ceteceans. they have smaller spermaceti organs, only the sperm whale has an unusually huge one

I painted this image last year and put the original on ebay to raise money for the anti-whale hunting charity . It was inspired by the actual signs Japanese whalers hold up while they’re being photographed poaching whales in the South Atlantic.

It impressed us with its breathtaking fight animation scenes funded by the whalers. Can Fate/Grand Order win the 'Anime of the Year title?

Day 5 and going strong. Trying more of the fine linework approach, still enjoying it a lot. More Spears, this time, Eideann's father Saul, who is one of the town's best whalers, but is often the Spear who takes the success of the hunt hardest.

Me: *head hits pillow, ready for sleep after a pretty good day where the world is right as rain*

Me, 3 seconds later: fuck i forgot the replicas AND the whalers.
