This is the full Mer-Nix i did for @NixussNightfall's birthday stream. 🐚💜 🌊 I used a beta fish's fins and colors for reference, and i think it came out pretty stellar for my first time drawing merfolk. 🤗 (The scales are a free brush pattern from CSP assets. Very helpful. 👍)

All right, so, here's a few more images that illustrate the concept I'm going for with my Merfolk. The 1st image in particular is relevant, since I want my Merfolk to be able to stand more or less level with a Human while on land. These images aren't perfect, but they're close.
Bunyip is an Australian Aboriginal man- eating monster that inhabits swamps & lagoons. It has a round head, an elongated neck & a body resembling an ox, hippo, manatee or human. Particularly when it resembles a human it is similar to merfolk. #FairytaleTuesday
The Mermaid Wife is a story from the Shetland islands about a man who stumbled upon a group of merfolk. When they saw the man approach, they threw on their clothes & transformed into seal-like creatures. But, the man was able to grab one outfit! #FairyTaleTuesday

This is my take on the mythos of the Selkie. A type of Merfolk. I believe the stories are native to the British Isles and tell of men and women of the sea who wear the skins of seals and removed them like cloaks.

Flick (He/him) seems childish and innocent, but actually is pretty intelligent for a merfolk. He can be quite curious about humans, and will go interact with them, even if other merfolk don't trust them and warn him to stay away he doesn't listen.
Day 5 - Neon Tetra:
Small, aquarium merfolk that swims in groups of up to 6 - 12 or more. They are the easiest to care for, making them one of the most adopted merfolk.

Kilick, The Landlocked Siren. A Fighter/Bard Merfolk
He struggles to transform into a biped like some merfolk.
He's trying to make his way back to the ocean and to his family.
Today's Mermay drawing! My theme for Mermay is biology-inspired merfolk... and jaws.
First up: Lamprey and Great White shark!
They're sisters :D

Vex'ahlia mermaid for #mermay because every time #VoxMachina went to the ocean, all Vex wanted was to see merfolk. #mermay2022 #CriticalRole #criticalrolefanart #CriticalRoleArt #LegendofVoxMachina #CriticalRoleCampaign1
The hippocampus (also the name for a coiled part of the human brain--thanks psych. degree ) are part horse/part fish sea creatures credited with pulling Neptune's chariot & perhaps also providing transport for common merfolk.

Just some fun self indulgent art of another merfolk. This one has a story to 'em, but to hell if I'm ever going to elaborate on that.
Grateful for @argento_falco for drawing my OCs Brandy and Hogun as merfolk. Loved the interpretation of the scale colors and both their bodies are bangin 🥰 #Merman #Mermaid #Merfolk #Transformation #Sirena #Triton #artcommission #Bara #Fantasy
18th day of OC-tober!
Riston is a sly piranha who smiles a lot. He's outgoing, outspoken and gets along with a lot of people. He lost his tail when he was really young and therefore cannot swim as well as other merfolk.
