Headshot portraits for the player characters of my campaign I'm slowly building and the one main NP c: They are playing a homebrew people who shift to sea creatures, so also have to give a token of their fish form too!

From top to bottom:

Umut-Lek: Sea Cucumber belongs to @madasa16

Demi-Mal: Bull Shark belongs to @Frost20026606

Akula-Esca: Remora belongs to Johnda!

Oro Itsaso: Weedy Sea Dragon belongs to @konkubus

Mer-People Attack in "Desolation": New Fantasy Story Sold to JayHenge Press

Mer-People Attack in “Desolation”: New Fantasy Story Sold to JayHenge Press

Great news to start the year with! JayHenge Press, publishers of many outstanding anthologies of short sci-fi and fantasy stories, have accepted my tale Desolation for their collection The Back Forty. Desolation is another story in my Age of Asmodeus series. This time, expect a family trapped on a ship in one of the remotest, most inhospitable places in the world: the Kerguelen Islands. It’s not…

IT-ITS STILL MERMAY!!!! IM NOT LATE YOU'RE LATE!!!!!

but seriously tho I wanted to post my sun&moon merfolk dudes only when I had digitalized it and colored and shit

I have so many tidbits on them and their biology and morphology and all that jazz (I made a whole new species just because) but it was a month full of exams and I CANT stop playing don't starve and cotl I feel like Im going crazy

Oh yeah, and those designs are just concepts and I already changed them a bit ekdkskd but I didn't wanna end the month with nothing, so mermaid AU letsgoo

A BIT ABOUT THEM:

Not really based on any particular species, there are some details here and there, some shark stuff cause I like em anddd some others fishes but as I said I changed them a bit and this is just concept art fase

Moon was gonna be a electric eel but I've seen enough people do that so I decided to just ignore most anatomy and do whatever FEELS like them, I hope I'm successful at least with their designs latter

Yes there's a bit (a lot but shhhh) of lore but I'm going to bed skdkwkdks

and dean winchester thought he was unlovable and didnt deserve happiness he hated himself and thought eveyone would eventually leave him and then a literal fucking angel fell in love with him. like loved him more than anything else in the world.

@naffeclipse orcas beach themselves to hunt seals orca!eclipse beaches themself to hunt y/n :)

[vectorisheree]

I really like your Eclipse, could you maybe draw him hugging Y/N? (If you don’t do Y/N stuff I’m sorryy) your art is so epic <3

Not quite a hug but he wouldn't have enough room for all his arms!

Drawing soft Eclipse feels so wrong like who is this man and why is he smiling like that

[sketchy-noodles]

It’s MerMay, so here’s a DeathDuo AU

Missa is a dork of a human who likes to come down to the pier to sing and work on his music where no one will bother him. Phil is a massive fish boi who likes the sound of Missa’s voice ❤️

Plus a bonus messy doodle of Missa carrying his husband around in a bucket.

I’ve decided Phil can change his size to fit into various different bodies of water. His default is big fish and he won’t get any bigger than he is in the first picture, but he can shrink himself down if need be to fit into smaller spaces

[way2gosuperrstarr]

lil sun doodle dump + some other things . 2 sunday's and a mercury . im sorry freddy fazbear i did not do you justice while drawing you. i am ashamed.

[38sr]

I love that your Aquaman seems like the touchy bro type who likes to hug everyone 🥺🖤 I bet Clark would hug him back or at least let Arthur hug him whenever he wants

Oh yea this is basically pretty much how I would imagine them interacting haha.

fic rec friday 58

hello and welcome to fic rec friday! where, on friday, i rec five of my favourite fics.

The Value of a Moment by @a-fools-errand

When Lance’s previously obsolete skills in language suddenly become very useful, he finds himself wondering why aliens can’t account for the fact that humans, particularly him, need sleep and would prefer linear timelines. (Or: an Arrival AU because I love that movie)

yall OBSESSED does not begin to cover it. i have never read a fic where lance was so goddamn cool. and in like. the insanest of ways?? like of course lance is a polyglot but THIS....this is a whole new level. i havent even finished it fully yet but like god this thing is so fucking cool. if ur looking for a longfic stop looking

2. Rest Stop by @flaming-potato-arsonarson

Lance wasn't like the rest of the world. And he had never had a loving mother tell him it made him stronger for it. So he told himself, gathering up his courage and grit to face a world of winged humanity, when he, in fact, has no wings and turns into a mermaid instead. A world that wants him to die. So he'd keep this secret like a knife in his boot, a sharp weapon until he died on his own terms. Not because of who he was. Except, Team Voltron isn't so sure why Lance is all rough edges and sharp points about showing off his wings. Or acting like a member of the Flock in general. It's clear he cares for them, but he's never shown an intimate part of him. Until he has to.

oh god this has gotta be one of my CLASSIC fics. read it a few dozen times. i read it right when it came out, six ish years ago (goddamn), i can remember curling up in my old bunk bad and eating this up as the hours ticked by. i was HOOKED. my jaw was dropped my eyes were glued. could not get enough. if youre looking for mermaid lance with a twist....brother this is it

3. Looking for Rain by @thewriter2

Like most things, it starts with the little things: his smile, his confidence, his talent. Eventually, all these little things add up to one big thing that threatens to crash over them like a heavy rain. But, maybe that wouldn't be a bad thing. Maybe something beautiful would come from it. A 5+1 (really a 10+1) of Lance and Keith falling in love.

oh god guys..... @thewriter2 knows how to fucking haunt you. if a 10+1 (!!) isnt enough for you, i want you to know this line has been echoing in my head since i first read: "He looks at you like you’re a storm and he’s a desert desperate to drown." UM??? EXCUSE ME???? SIMILE OF ALL TIME ACTUALLY???? keith being so so visibly obviously in love with lance is my actual roman empire shit never leaves my mind

4. Astronauts by @thewriter2

When they entered the Blue Lion, Keith was Lance’s rival--the person Lance was working so hard to surpass. But slowly, Lance found himself thinking of Keith less as a rival and more as something close to a friend. So of course, Lance’s traitor of a heart decided that it would be Lance’s kind of friend that it would fall in love with.

tags to sell you: "keith is a dork but lance loves him anyway" (dorky keith my beloved), "hunk is an a+ friend" (yes he is), "lance is a lovesick fool" (yeah), and "allura is older sister goals" yes yes YES you get it. and like....while keith pov is my favourite to write by far, lances pov as he realises he is in love....that will always hold such a special special place in my heart

5. his own worth by frogsterz

In the middle of the conversation, Lance stops talking and no one notices. It’s not like he had been leading the conversation, for he hadn’t been, but somehow the fact that his lack of input or opinion isn’t noticed tightens the grip loneliness has on his heart. He looks down at his food, his face burning, his throat tightening up.

now usually anything but team as family isnt my deal. im not big on classic langst. but keith as a knight in shining armour.....what can i say i am weak willed. deeply. also " It’s what made it worse. I miss home and I miss being held and the rain, and I loved you. I thought you hated me." got me so bad got me WEAK like i have never recovered from that line and i doubt i ever will

that’s it for today!! i’ll see y’all back next friday for the next fic rec post!!!

[macabrecabra]

Some quick headshots for NPCs in my DnD campaign which has started up again! So far it has been going very well and already the high tension and emotions are starting ; w ;

A lot of elders of the tribe the Player characters come from as well as their family! Was fun to draw a lot of variety with older faces and middle-aged women!

The last headshot is of the plankton princess who unfortunately lost her life at the end of last session after a horrible attack ; w ; She did her best...but now the big boss has a powerful artifact and the players are now on a mission!

Guys I don’t think it’s physically possible for Heyhay to make a character that isn’t insanely hot
