Description

's Cliona and Goober
Such... huggables! They where a delight to work with, loving their soft shapes~

I realized that I'm not sure how aquatic these two are. I got the impression they're fine with diving, Goober having gill slits and Cliona having marine creatures in the skin, but I may be all wrong here! I can alter it to become land instead if needed :V

The red growth there may look a bit like coral but it's red algae, which is soft and fine to lay down on. We can't just scratch up poor Goober like that :c

I've digitally altered it a bit, cleaning it up and matching the characters colors a bit better. Nevertheless, I don't like altering traditional art too much as it kind of take away part of the challange of traditional art. Especially "mercyless" ones like these x_x

Sea friends:
Brittle star (Ophiuroidea)
Cuttlefish (Sepiida)
Christmas tree worm (Spirobranchus giganteus)
Football jersey worm (Tubulanus annulatus) [Wow, that english name...]
Red macroalgae (Rhodophyta)
Sea lettuce (Ulva sp.)

AHHHHH this turned out so cute! Their poses are perfect! Clio's ears flopping around in the water is SO CUTE! And her look of intrigue. <3

Eeeee and Goober looks so SQUISHY AND CONTENT and happy to be with their friend! You did an awesome job on their colors and shiny smooth skin!

And as always, I LOVE all the cute marine organism cameos you include when you draw my aquatic characters! sdkjhfksjd Football Jersey Worm.... what a hilarious English name... and a cute worm! And the brittle star loos SO COOL! And CHRISTMAS TREE WORMS -- they're some of my favorite worms! Β And the cute little cuttlefish. And RED ALGAE. I am so in love with red macroalgae. I actually have a mothcat whose entire design is based on assorted red macroalgae.

Thank you so much for trading with me, i love everything about this! <333

Yay, I'm happy you enjoyed it~!

I always feel a bit cautious doing marker art for you as you're waaay more experienced with the medium.

The red algae was defiantly a little nudge towards that interest and character, so I'm feeling quite thrilled that it was noticed. I love drawing marine organisms so some bonus ones simply have to be included. It's honestly been a great treat to add in such in the latest trades I've done with you, being nothing I'd randomly draw "on my own" ^^

Ah, how sweet! They certainly look content in the water, and surrounded by so many sea friends as well.
