I've been wanting to do a full-crew Endurance illustration for a long time, and finally the gang's all here! 28 men, dogs and cat all accounted for, with every crew member referencing either a photo of them or a story about them. It's a little over two years since I first read Lansing's Endurance and I couldn't be happier to still be researching and drawing these guys :)

How incredibly delusional are some of you people to support a fraud like Cook?

Ghost of Robert Peary, is that you?

I got roland huntford's the last place on earth in a charity shop and am ready to read it through gritted teeth, knowing his opinion of scott, but can we just appreciate this absolute power pose from amundsen

you wouldnt last an hour here

now here’s a TV show that I am thinking about a normal amount 

Victor Frankenstein syndrome aka you spent nights over nights crying and bleeding over this work and now that it's finally done you're just like "nvm. it's trash" and go to bed

finished reading The Worst Journey in the World and I am not okay!!

Inktober day 22 - Ghost

The ghost at the top of the old lighthouse, watching over the ships and wondering if someone will come to keep him company.

Been wanting to draw a lighthouse for a while too!XD
