Last day of Mermay!

Mermay Day 25!

less low effort day lets goooooo

also, what am i doing to attract so many pornbots and how do i make them stop

aslo also, can i change the crop so that--random example here--i don't cut faces in half?

Day 21

Well my pen kept going in and out during the entire thing, had to switch to an old poorly configured tablet.

Also, another, 'I started it before midnight so it still counts!'

Day 20!

I am so sick! very unwell

Day 19!

Well, I opened the file before midnight so it counts

I accidentally copied the exact color scheme of an earlier mermaid whoops

Day 18!

edit;

WOW

i didn't realize how asleep i was when i drew this. The layers were all fucked up in the paint file too. still not as fucked up as her face though

Mermay day 17!

Mermay day 16

Leeeeeaaaaaafffff

The pose is so dumb, but she turned out so cute!

Day 15!

another pink merm. I took like 3 times longer on this one than the others because I kept having to redo her face. Aaaaand then i forgot to erase the under-drawing of her hair. So she has ghost hair whoops

So, maybe just one more day with a basically identical pose

day 14!

Why is she so concerned? we may never know.

(I've been doing this for 2 weeks? (???) that doesn't compute somehow)

Mermay day 13

After doing the pose i though, 'gosh that's familiar, have i done this pose befo--' yesterday.

Litterally yesterday. Not even 'yesterday' in the sense that i've slept sense then. It's been like 6 hours. WEll.

Mermay day 12

Yesterday's mermaid was reaching towards nothing, so i thought i would give her a friend to reach for.

I once again started this on the 12th so it still counts

I guess weird ass arms are just a theme and not that i just can't draw arms/hands

Mermay day 11

don't focus on her tits they're weird looking

i said don't

Guess who's falling asleep again

meeeeeeeeeeeeee

(day 10)

edit;

The fuck are her poor hands

Speed paint of Mermay day 1

wow

i zoom in and out a lot

huh

(the song is 'dolphin-esque' by Godmode on youtube's music library)

OKay, so i started this on the 7th might have finished it after midnight though

I had to switch from night shift to day shift to do overtime at my job, and now I have to switch back 😭

I can't even say RIP my sleep schedule, that bitch is the memory of the ghost of a resurrected corpse at this point. My sleep schedule is a revenant slowly chasing me down. Anyways! ANother pink mermaid! I'm actually really happy with this one

Day 5!

I was falling asleep the whole time painting, like, actually nodding off. Her color scheme is real cute but this isn't my best work :/ which is funny, because yesterday's turned out the best so far.

Mermay day 3!

I'm already on a low effort day, this doesn't bode well D:

MerMay day 2

Did i draw these merms too big to fit 30 of them in the kelp forest, we'll fuckin see i guess

Also, 2 for 2 drawing the arms real weird. Maybe that's just mermaid anatomy in this universe. Mini merms have weird ass arms. World building! It helps them swim. Somehow.

Attempting Mermay! (It's been a few years since i participated so lets see how this goes)

I'm trying something different to make things easier on myself, so instead of a bunch of individual drawings of merms, I'm just going to do one big school of mini merms.

(i'll add in some texture and shadow to the kelp later, i need to go to bed!)

(Is this enough tit for mature, i labeled it mature)
