Balaenoptera's cetacean models

The past year or so I've been working on a series of cetacean figures which I plan to cast and sell in the future. I'm making about 75 species, of which about 30 are done.

Here's some examples:

I plan on making other animals as well, but for now, I hope you like my whales and dolphins! If you want to see a particular species, please ask. I also take commissions.

These figures are excellent and you are very talented. Being so young, I expect that you have a fruitful life as a sculptor of animal replicas. I love every single figure and the painting of the pantropical spotted dolphin is amazing.
Though, I am afraid you have to resize your pictures. Some members will have troubles loading this page. :)

Thank you so much Roger, it really means a lot to me.

And I see :) how can I resize them?

You're welcome!
About resizing ictures, we use to do it first in our own computers before housting. As you use DeviantArt and it is not a good idea to use DA to resize your pictures. Maybe you can follow this suggestion
If the link I provided is not clear for you. Let us know and we give you some guidance.

Phantastic work and so many interesting species :-)

I keep scrolling up and down to admire these great models

Yes, they are truely wonderful , and I agree so much with Roger, and can not express it better !

Thank you so much Susanne and Andreas!

Well done!
And I'm very glad you finally chose an avatar! Beautiful one!

Very nice models and a wonderful idea! Congratulations

Thank you Bowhead whale and Ana!
I will upload some more soon.

It's a work, with a lot of patience.

congratulations.

That's a huge task to make 75 species, but already a great start and you will have a wonderful collection to be very proud of!

Oohh, they are wonderful!
Did you also make a Harbor porpoise?

Haha, yes!
Weird translation from Dutch to English and you get a funny porpoise.
Bruinvissen are neither brown nor a fish Name always bothered me as my boyfriends always made fun of that poor cetacean

Yes, I already made a harbor porpoise :) I will post a picture soon, also of some other species I already made.
I always disliked the name 'bruinvis' too, haha.

And thank you Landrover and MiniZoo! It is indeed a big task, and actually even bigger than that! For some species, I want to make 2 different models, for example; for the Blue whale, I made a 'regular' one with a closed mouth but I also want to make a feeding blue whale with the expanded throat. Besides the modern whales I will also sculpt some prehistoric whales. And even skulls (in about 1:40 scale)
I doubt I will cast and make copies of all of them, but I hope I'm able to present you fellow collectors some interesting species in the future.

I love them all! I hope you will post the Porpoise and the Blue Whale soon:)

Oh, I missed these before.  Nice sculpting and nice painting! I'm especially enjoying the unusual presentation of the humpback, the orca's pose supported by its flippers, and the spotted dolphin's painting.

Thanks Megaptera and Andy!

Will you make a bowhead whale?
