Why does the whale have nostrils and no blow hole?

You're the last person that should be commenting on understanding because you still don't get it!

I thought this whale business was a joke. Guess not :roll:

Thanks again to those who have supported this figure so far. I am sorry if some of you do not like it. I am sorry if I broke some kind of rule by posting here. I have posted stuff here before and so far found the forum has always been very helpful and supporting. I always thought this was a great place to give independent figure designers a chance to show their work.

- Sperm whales have an S-shaped blowhole on the side of the head. This may look like a nostrill but it is actually accurate.
- I know the figure is not a very logical design but that is the intention of the design. I wanted to create a tribute to whacky toy designs of the 80s and 90s. If you look at the animations you can clearly see that all is done with a certain sense of humor. Of course it might not be up to your taste and you are free not to like it.

Thanks again, Hauke

PS Moderators if this is the wrong thread for this kind of figure please tell me and I will move/remove it.
