Can we talk more about chimaeras? They're some pretty underrated cartilaginous fish who deserve as much love as sharks, skates, and rays.

Day 26: Gendervoid Chimaera "Ghost Shark"

Sharks and the Chimaera are essentially cousins, since both are cartilaginous fish (skeletons made of cartilage instead of bone). Beyond that, they have little other relation and despite the nickname "Ghost Shark," Chimaeras are not actually considered sharks.

Pacific Spookfish marker practice. I'm happy with the driftwood mount behind it. I keep meaning to draw a haunted bonsai tree, and this really makes me want to go though with that.
