Description
My OC Django doing a bit of hunting. He will eat pretty much anything.

In my version of merfolk this is their true form, and though they can take on a human looking appearance, they are not the same species. In human form merfolk don't look like humans when it comes to reproductive anatomy or a myriad of other little details, so they can be discerned if one looks closely. Merfolk are not mammals or fish. They have hair (long on the head very fine on the body) and give live birth. In merform their hands and feet are more like flippers. Their hands have one free digit and opposeable thumb. Their knees are ball joints which means they can bend both backwards and forwards giving them a powerful propulsive kick, but they can also move their legs independently which means they can make more precise movements and turns than if he had just a tail. They have gills, teeth, and eyes just like a shark.

I haven't decided what to do with their tails!!! Do I just give them vestigial tails like here, or leave them off altogether...

KurokiKumo helped me flesh out his design! So happy I finally got to draw him with his new colors/markings!
