Description This is my second whale character for my whale wars project. This is a female version called WhaleHawk.
WhaleHawk is an Air Whale, a special unit of whales that gives fire support for the larger Infantry Whales from the sky. The bionic exoskeleton for Air Whales can only support a certain amount of weight. Therefore it is limited to the smaller female whales or in very rare cases to you male ones.
WhaleHawk is a young whale who has joined the war only a few years ago. She comes from the same planet as the veteran WhaleHammer who she serves with.
Whalehammer is a legend back on their world. She looks up to him as some kind of mentor but her rash and reckless behaviour often put her at odds with him.

Above you can see WhaleHawk from various angles. Granted her design is not very aerodynamic but then it is a giant whale in an exoskeleton with wings. 
I also sneaked a first glimpse of the evil aliens into this picture. The design is not finalized put I plan to make them at least twice the size of a human. At that size even a food soldier might pose a moderate threat to the whales. It also shows why the humans are hopelessly outclassed by the aliens and need the whales to fight for them.

Maaaan. I'd -love- to see these characters in a game. Are you producing this around/for something?

Thanks. I am currently producing a prototype of the infantry whale for a collectors figure. However I really fell in love with the whole concept of these whales. So I plan on expanding the whole universe a little bit and then see about what can be done with it. A game or a comic book would be cool.

Yeah. Definitely. I'd like to see either myself. Would love to get involved if there were anything I could do, but I'm not that well versed atm .

But yeah. I definitely fell in love with it when I saw the whale for the first time too x3

I love this. And I make music using the name WhaleHawk and it's nice to see some lasers and armor!
Check it out - www.reverbnation.com/whalehawk - I'd love to come up with a theme.

Holler!

cool concept but air whale needs some protection for his eyes; esp if he's going to be flying at high speeds. Also, perhaps infantry whale should be holding a helmet by his side? Afterall, power armour doesn't do you any good if 80% of the target that you present is soft flesh.

You make some valid points. I actually thought about giving the Air Whale goggles and even a breathing mask for high altitude flights. However in the end I decided against it simply because I thought the characters would look weirder/more interesting with as much of the actual whale body shown as possible. In my story the whales have some telekinetic abilities. So maybe I could argue that they can put a telekinetic force field around their body and eyes to shield them from damage and fast flying.
