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

Because it is Mermay:

Originally did this art for one of @radiance1 prompts/story ideas, which also gives an idea of colors so.

[bloo-the-dragon]

@thedenofravenpuff you inspired me to draw them again

A fairy slug Moon and a man-eating Mer Sun (Tiaki) surely such a duo won't cause any chaos. Surely...

[itsmuffiiee]

Do you have a fav DCA Genre? Like AU's where they're mers, humans, semi-canon, etc?

My Favorite? Hard to say As long has there is TDCA I am happy!! ‹𝟹

I love mermaids because I love water so much!! And mermaids are nostalgic..

Fay or cryptics .. well :3 I’m kinda like a fairy!! How could I not love that?..

Vampires? Sure!!! Let me have a bite! ..

Apocalyptic? Yummy! I always eat it up!! …

Helper / AU where y/n acquires the goofs? Such a comfort! …

Post ruin? Pre ruin? Both are such good settings!!

Maybe one day I’ll pick my up most favorite but that day is not today )::

Also apologies for taking so long to awnser your ask! Sometimes I leave asks in my inbox because it motivates me to keep posting knowing others want to hear from me ::D please send more asks

Obsessed with @a-clown-with-wings's fishies that I totally won't kidnap, not at all sir, nothing to see here, no need to fire me! I'm just taking them, permanently, and not returning them to their enclosure!(also pretend their enclosure has a view to the sky because of vibes)

Original traditional lineart under read more.

my only sadness is that I couldn't make Moon's little heart shaped head thingy look good with the composition.... a failure on my part.... that's their cutest feature.... but it's okay because Sun's gummy looking rays are so squishy grrrrrrrr I'm not normal about them

Here are the boys together

So here are some ideas for this little au of mine. I think I shall call it "Tank Mates au"

Before I start, I'm giving a little heads up. there are some sensitive stuff mentioned like abuse and mistreating and consequences of such actions...

Now about the au

Sun and Moon were captured by humans but in different timeline. Sun and Moon actually didn't know each other back then. Sun was captured when he was very little. Whoever caught him however took a good care of him for years but Sun was slowly outrgrowing his living space and simply becoming too much to take care of so the authorities were called and Sun was taken to an organization that rescues and takes care of marine creature that if it's possible are then released back to the wild. Unfortunately since Sun was captured in young age and was living in captivity for his entire life. He depends on humans. Even if he learned how to hunt, he sees humans as his own and seeks human company and suffers a separation anxiety if he's left alone and another problem of releasing him is him seeking the human company. This could lead to capturing him again but this time he could end up in wrong hands. The organization is trying anything to help Sun to be less depended on humans. The best would be if Sun would have a tank mate but not just any mate. Someone like him. An Another merfolk...

Moon was capture later than Sun. However he wasn't as lucky as Sun. His captors were cruel. For years he was mistreated, abused, kept in a small tank, experimented on. All of this plus the lack of positive stimulation lead to an aggressive behavior and trying to find a new way how to either escape or just kill some people for entertainment...

Moon was then discovered by the company and rescued. Now the company is trying the best to rehabilitate Moon but he's not easy to work with. Even the people that don't treat him badly and bring him food are not safe but they have the highest chance of living another day. Security and scientists along with doctors are on the very top of his hate list. Despite all the troubles he might be the solution for Sun's depending on humans problem. Not to mention this could be beneficial for Moon too, to help him with his social skills and having a positive stimulation. But it's easy to say than done. All of this would need a hard work and some time and patience.. a lot of patience and the right people to work on this project

That's all I'm saring for now c:

Happy Eclipse day!

Have a doodle of Eclipse and a little merfolk Solar

We're making it a holiday today

[capricornyc]

Apparently I have good timing lmao I just finished this up when I saw that the fic updated!! So of course I had to go read the new chapter! All the adorable little babies!!

Anyways, idk if this is entirely done but he's good for now, might get some little touch ups as I go along, but we'll see.

I actually ended up doing a decent amount of research for this design, mostly via youtube videos of people playing the mod. But hey, it helped with some of the design aspects that were hidden in my main reference pic lol.

So, here's my design for Kill Code 'The Silence' from The Abyss Stares Back (Warning: It's rated Explicit) by @sinclairmaxwellao3 and @cyborgfoxcripple (sorry for the tags, but hopefully y'all like the fanart <3 )

I'll probably be working on either Moon or Eclipse next (leaning towards Moon)
