HMC #25 - The Oceans - Gangster Walrus

#1

Okay this was originally just a random idea I had when pitching the humourous entry, but it’s grown on me a whole lot…

The Gangster Walrus
The basic idea is a walrus in a Fedora and pinstripe suit with a tommy gun…y’know that old picture of the monkey in the suit with the gun? think that…but with a bad ass walrus…


Think this but more…well…walrus-y…and with a hat…

Inspiration Pics
In addition to the monkey above here’s a few pics to help inspire me…

walrus

outfit

tommy gun

cigar

1920’s rolex

obviously my walrus is going to be a little modified to be a bit more human like…but it’ll still be a walrus…

Sweet man. Love that Thompson.

If you have children of men, I recommend giving it a browse. Clive Owen isn’t a gangster, but hes dressed like that reference you posted, only theres a lot more “grunge” to his look.

A fat stogy sticking out of those tusks would have me rolling.

and i don’t mean to do a shameless plug but if you guys could pop over to my new Supernatural WIP (link in sig) and give a bit of C+C it’d be appreciated…no one seems to be taking to it…lol…i think when i post my updates everyone else in the world is asleep…
