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!

(A photo of a Coelacanth I found yesterday while making the post, I thought you all may enjoy it)

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

putting my face in my hands i immediately started working on this once i got home from work.. all i wanna do is paint pretty mer au eislen illustrations

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

Mermay day 8!

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 6

I'm not super pleased with this one either D: swings and round abouts, there's gonna be 30 of these!

Also, i should have gone to bed several hours ago and i'm falling asleep again. I feel like by the end of May i'm going to be able to paint while in REM

edit:

Oh no she looks like player 2 Blanka

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.

day 4

the school of merms is growing

I should probably add more than just blues and greens maybe (and that one outlier purple)

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)

tell me that i'm wrong
