Description And now I have a merman OC of my own. XD
and I am loving him already. v3v

Though, I don't really see him as the angry type, even though his headshot looks angry. I just wanted to sow his teeth, dangit!!


was part of my reason for making him, but I mainly wanted a merman cuz I also love me some merms. Still gotta design a naga and samurai as well! Naga could be a part of the same world but I don't think the samurai will be. lawl
And I was telling myself to go simple with his design... lol that didn't happen. <___> JUST HAD TO KEEP GOING!


Once I add more to his toyhouse I'll share more on plans for him!

Ooh, I missed this one somehow. Love his design, great colours! I'd have never thought to use neon colours like that with brown haha

Thank you!!
It was actually a happy accident for these specific colors. XD I colored him far less saturated, and I was kind of "eh" about it... so for the fun of it I threw on a bright orange and set it to overlay on accident and brought down the opacity and then this happened.
I'M A SUCKER FOR THESE KINDS OF TONES. I can't naturally do it on my own so I'll do more overlays from now on. xD SO PRETTY.

Oh wow, he looks cool!

Hey you, viewer. Stop looking at it. You know exactly what I'm talking about, and they aren't what you think they are.

The slit or the fins by his slit? :P The fins are just fins, not claspers! heh


and thank you!

You already know the answer to that question.

You're welcome!

shortybat In reply to Combak [2019-02-04 21:09:17 +0000 UTC]

I actually don't xD
cuz since "they" would mean plural, and his fins aren't claspers :v People can look at his fins!
and they can look at his slit too if they want. xD He'd just find it confusing on why.

I'm teasing people for thinking the fins are claspers... Because I know I did that at first.

That hair looks really neat!
A little hard to see how his tail anatomy is, looks like regular fish side to side movement but his flat belly looks like up and down movement, tail looks a bit square.

But i agree with others, he does look really neat!

you'll better see it when I do a side view of him! It's all a trick of the eyes honestly. haha


Thanks!

I can't tell you this enough, Zale looks so awesome! I cannot wait to see more of hiiiiim!

Of course he has them earthy colors. And they look so great on him!


I love the subtle stripes on his fiiiiins!!!!



And hey since when does "I want a simple design" ever stay simple for long?



He's just perfeeeeeeeeeeeect!

shortybat In reply to SepiSnake [2019-02-03 03:11:50 +0000 UTC]

Yeeee!! The stripes were a must even though it added more complexity to his design. XD

It's funny cuz sometimes I complicate things cuz I have this idea in my head, but later making it far simpler. This time was the opposite! lololol

SepiSnake In reply to shortybat [2019-02-03 04:22:19 +0000 UTC]

Those stripes do give him the added handsomeness.

My hand is already in pain at the thought of coloring them in!


One day I wanna dare you to make a simple design and love it to pieces~
