Mermay, day 23: common plecostomus catfish. Armored catfish are neat. Simpler one tone flat shading today because I spent all morning being very ill (I'm a bit better now).
Bonus: giant squid mermaid without any effects. You can see that she required both darker and more contrasting shading than I usually use, as well as two arms that were never fully drawn because they were meant to fade into the gloom anyway.
Mermay, day 14: manta ray. Manta rays' 'horns' are actually feeding aids, but here they're actual horns? And her gills are below her waist? What an odd mermaid.
Mermay day 12: alligator gar. This is a refinement of a design I did a month ago, so I decided I'd go the extra mile and have a second version of the image for the tweet (it's...definitely not gonna be something I do for every day in Mermay).
