Artist's Comments

For my New Media Class, my prompt was; Cloning. Apparently they found a very well preserved wooly mammoth so they tried to take its DNA and implant it into an elephant mother who would give birth to the mammoth. The Mother will just flip a shit and wonder why the hell her child is so damn hairy. But who cares, when you've got a potential Jurrasic Park on your hands. So, my idea was to show this by making twin fetuses in the womb except one is jacked on rogain.

Critiques


:iconsygnin:
Cool, I like the subtle DNA bits.

My only comment would be that while the womb does look like a womb, I have no idea what an elephant womb looks like, and depending on the emotional intent of the piece it may seem a bit macabre.

To be less direct, you could consider something like implying the mother elephant in a negative outline or something like that.

The womb depiction does work, of course, but that's my personal take on it. I think it'd be fine for most magazines that were to run an article about cloning, especially if they were talking about the mammoth cloning procedure in particular.

Your description gave me a laughing fit, lol.

I'm not surprised that you could make a womb cross section cute.

From the thumbnail, it look sort of like a heart, guess that makes it even more loveable too.

This is digital art? You've done so good with making it look traditional, I had to do a double take on it.

I really haven't an critique for this. Nice Job.
