My day job is keeping me busy, and the art I am working on is secret for now - so here's a throwback to my first time using pastelmat for colour pencil - really need to do another full piece on pastelmat - was so excited at being able to layer white over dark!!!

A matchup between an elephant and a rhinoceros would be quite the spectacle! Both are massive animals with unique features and strengths.
In terms of sheer size, African elephants are the largest land animals, weighing several tons and standing up to 13 feet tall at the shoulder. Rhinoceroses, on the other hand, are smaller but still formidable, with the largest species, the white rhinoceros, weighing around 2.2 to 3.6 tons.
In a confrontation, the outcome would likely depend on various factors such as the species of elephant (African vs. Asian), the species of rhinoceros (white, black, Indian, etc.), the individuals involved, and the circumstances of the encounter.
Elephants are known for their intelligence, social structure, and formidable strength. Their tusks can be used as weapons, and they have powerful trunks that can push over trees and fend off predators.
Rhinoceroses, while not as agile or intelligent as elephants, possess thick, armor-like skin and formidable horns. Their charge can be incredibly powerful, and they have been known to flip vehicles in confrontations.

Trying to be looser, using a bigger brush in order to not get sunk into detail too quickly. I like details, so this is a challenge!
