Reject tempest

My next project requires monsters in a bath. 

This drawing was a reject because the waves look a little like shredded wheat bricks.

Queasy woodcut waves

"No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into a jail;
for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned."
Samuel Johnson.

Saw some woodcut waves in a book about early steamboats.
