Youngster swims around as one of its pod-mates rests on the bottom, exhausted. This little one just doesn't know when to quit being hyper and take a rest. -

Some random info on these dolphins: They live in the Abyssal Plains where the pressure is so great, that to have bones would mean certain death. Instead, they are boneless, nearly transparent, just like jellyfish. (Hence I call them Jelly Dolphins, or J-Fins). They have no real color, instead taking on the color of anything that they are by... Scientists have long tried to understand how they became water-breathers, but it remains a mystery. --

Older render. No longer have the working file, since A3 decided it wanted to crash after I made some test renders. Since the file was only half done, when I returned to it, it later evolved into the Neu Dolphin. --

Side note: the ocean bottom texture was grabbed off of a free textures site - can't remember the URL, however I've heavily mod'd it since its original state. All other textures are mine. --
