The narwhal (Monodon monoceros), an iconic whale of remote Arctic waters, is widely known for its long, spiral tusk, which is really an elongated tooth. The tusk, which is predominantly found in males and can grow up to 10 feet long, is one of the most fascinating traits in nature and the inspiration for myths such as the unicorn. It is believed to play a role in competition for mates, including mating displays. The tusk may have other uses and its function is still debated, primarily because few people have observed how these elusive animals use their tusks in the wild.

The original ink drawing + some details + some WIPs of my Narwhal artwork for @polarlightszine !

While I planned this artwork with the digital colorization in mind from the beginning and therefore the contrasts arent that clear in the b&w version, I still like it a lot! I'm curious what others think, so let me know whether you think if it works as it's own artwork.

Does the b&w version work by itself?

yea it works

nah, without colour something's missing
