Description
Commission for my bro Kenneth ! A silly portrait of his interpretations of Melville's classic characters Ishmael and Queequeg. Check out his gallery for more art of these two, and if you're interested, he's doing a great read-through illustrated commentary on his Livejournal that is absolutely sidesplitting.Queequeg is fond of shenanigans. Ishmael is less so.
Commissions are still open! See my journal: [link]

One of my favorite books! I always thought that these two would be good together, but even in the book that was a pretty good bromance!

Queequeg' tats are so clean and detailed! Lol i love the blushy cheeks on Ishmael. You've got to teach me hoe to draw clothing folds, yours are always so fluid.

Oh, my derp grammar bits...
I read parts of it for CIS Lit when we read some book with a million references to Melville. I think it was "Green Grass, Running Water."
