Mermay - Tumblr Posts
Imagine an AU crossover for mermay…
The Shark Queen and her loyal morays.
Thought this might be a good first post even though it'll probably go unseen, but oh well.
Here's a drawing of a mermaid representing jealousy, bitterness and and anger. Her body is slowly mutating, and her scales are forming mushroom like coral.
It took me a while to finish but ye it's done now.
Ariel saving Eric.
Some mermaid au doodles for a very late mer-may
I imagine that either Prospero or Lenore could be a marine biologist I just wanted to draw Prospero
The Ocean Queen meets her little brother for the first time and he’s a lot… smaller than she thought he would be.

A spearwoman and a knife-dugong
Rare Tumblr post! Been working on this for a little while, and had already committed to completing it when I heard about the #MermayWarriors XP Pen challenge. Since they fit the theme of the challenge, I decided to send them as an entry.
The spearhead is a sharktooth, and the gunong that the dugong is holding is copper alloy. I wanted to pick materials that won't corrode too easily in seawater, but I didn't wanna think too hard about it (which is rare for me). I mostly wanted to redraw them because I was enamoured with the concept of Baby Dugong and wanted to draw him again.
Here's the original version. Looking at them side-by-side is kind of interesting.
I truly wasn't sure where this was gonna go when I started. This kind of stuff has always seemed a bit too far out of reach for my self-taught, weapon-designing self. I kind of pushed my anime boundaries by a lot when I drew the original (I'm still proud of it), and I wasn't sure how much further beyond I could push it at my skill level. It's not as precise as I wanted, it's not as detailed as I wanted, but I can safely say I'm proud of this one too. More importantly, I actually finished it! That's significant considering how many foolish ambitions I've put to rest in WIP limbo and never touched again. Anyway- in my head they protect giant clams. At present, giant clams in the West Philippine Sea are constantly at risk of poaching, and their habitats vulnerable to deep-sea trawling from foreign encroachment. Dugong are somewhat vulnerable as well. Their main diet is seagrass, and seagrass beds are frequently under threat of destruction from ill-advised land reclamation work, as well as well-meaning but improperly handled mangrove planting projects. Also the baby dugong is at least ten times more likely to stab someone than the spearwoman.
Seek no mercy from these eyes, they will grant you only pity.
That's all for now. Going on a short hiatus after this- not that I was very active on here to begin with. But I'll try! But I'll do that after. Have a good day folks.

Hey, the Fishy has made some mermay stuff, and it is mostly purple
Who would have guessed?
*My first victims were Celestial (10) and Villan (day 11)
Villan was my favorite and inspired by the lion-fish, they just look kinda malignant to me
Going for Malificent vibes? Maybe?
Here are some of my favorite sketches.
At the end of the month, maybe the favorites will become full pices, all depend on time
[To much stuff, celestial on the next post]
Celestial!
She's shiny
She's strong
And she's gotta a batle axe 🪓
