Humpback Whale Breaching Ocean

I've seen some wonderful images of whales breaching the surface, and it started really sticking with me. I really wanted to make it something special, and it was in my mind's eye for several weeks. Finally, I created this model, and frankly I'm thrilled. It turned out even better than I had hoped.This is a hybrid model: the ocean surface was created using HueForge filament painting. It requires 4 colors, but it's pretty straightforward: you start with black, then do 3 filament swaps. The rest of the model is in black and white.
