Description
Here's a close-up of rodhocetus kasrani who is part of my illustration that shows the evolution of toothed whales. The legs are still getting shorter and more paddle-like feet. They had flexible spines which was great for swimming. They probably couldn't walk on land for too long due to the shape of their legs and feet, so they must have spent a majority of their time in the water. Rodhocetus kasrani done in marker, colored pencil, and white pen.

Don't worry, I will. You see, I'm in the process of writing of writing a book on whale evolution called "When the whales had hooves". I tried looking for a Rodhocetus skeletal on Google, but I couldn't find one that looked one one that was perfect enough to draw an illustration for it. Yours looked really cool and the proportions looked well illustrated too. If you'd like, I can add your name and your artworks title to my references page at the end of the book. Just let me know if this is all right with you.
