Hekili, on land: "MOISTURIZE ME. MOISTURIZE ME!"

Yeah, I don't think it would end well, lol.

(This is really fun, I'd love to answer more questions about these guys or any of their friends on my artfight :3 )

[carouselcarl]

what if it's the merman who comes onto land instead and he galumphs around like a seal

That would be very funny, and I did have to animate him doing the worm after reading that. Thank you for that imagery.

Hekili is from the open ocean and would not do well out of the water for extended periods. He would probably dry out and scratch up his body pretty quick. It would very quickly turn into the 'I need water' episode of SpongeBob.

Land & Sea Guy - attack for @carouselcarl !

Something I made for a few of my characters featured in art fight this year. It's hard out there for the trans mermen who have crushes on centaurs who are afraid of water.

So this is a big celebration set of fake screenshots I've been working on since Legends of Avantris hit the 15 million stretch goal to bring Starlight Brigade to the Neon Odyssey D&D books next year as a mini campaign! It's also a fun hypothetical headcanon idea of how Strive, Pyke and the Rhapsody crew could possibly meet. I'm imagining Strive unwillingly separated from the rest of the brigade/twrp crew, somehow ending up in the Rhapsody's neck of the galaxy and soon after being pursued by space pirates while dodging and weaving to escape. Pyke then takes off in his ship, the Sparrow, to engage in the coolest combat scenario in my head as Strive's ship doesn't have any weapons to fight back with. You should totally check out the music videos with these characters and maybe even watch a really cool D&D campaign too :)

Three artworks on the same theme, by Hiroo Isono, likely from the 70s or early 80s.

Thanks to @jca-archive for the third scan - the others are from this insta and this company.

Looks like they're going to try boxing now, surely nothing will go wrong.

Just a WIP, I'm using this as practice for full page comic layouts

If I had a nickel every time I fell in love with a gem-toting space elf from a Knights of the Light Table music video I would have two nickels.
