YOU KNOW WHAT? FUCK YOU! UN-MERMAIDS YOUR MERMAIDS!
What I usually do in June after Mermay is to draw my Mermay designs as humans or at least humanoid. So uhhh here take this-
Oh damn it June now aka pride month
Here take some new ocs I’ve made based off the two June art challenges I ain’t interested in
An end to it all.
AND WERE AT THE END CHAT!!! my goodness this finale Mermay was kinda fun to do! This month had its lonely times, but that’s okay. That’s just small steps and something to remind me.
Again, will I be doing another art challenge next month? Nah. I see June as a bit boring and more of a resting spot. But I may be doing artfight in July! So that’s a plus.
So our characters Ellis and Zuomeng/Narrator end up on a beach in the Mermay AU universe, both the two see the beautiful blue moon.
And btw, do you remember Navek? Well, here’s his true form! Named Kevan! This TSP narrator design right here appeared in the Labradoozy TSP event I was in! So that’s pretty cool! Anyway that dude is PISSED at Zuomeng for leaving him behind, so he chases him.
Following suit, my Narrator oc I saw in a dream appears. Their name is Alex. He apologises to Ellis for what has happened, before chasing after Kevan.
Ellis takes one last look at the ocean, smiles, and follows suit on the two. Ellis and Zuomeng still have much to do.
But anyway, that’s the end of the line. And who knows if this will happen again. I mean, it WILL but it might not be Mermay AU related-
Thank you to the people who liked my Mermay posts, and may we meet again!
Mermay day 30/31. The final prompts.
Last time on Mermay
So I split the final prompts into two halves.
So the first half is:
Spectral, Snailfish, Impulsive, Jackalope, Coastal grandma, Kentrosaurus, Otherworldly, Great white, Seraphim, Aloha, The coolest dinosaur (favourite dino), and goldfish.
So here for the first one you have a mysterious elderly deep sea mermaid who lives in R’yeh who acts before they think and her name would be Ahola, which is aloha backwards.
Seraphim is the eye jewellery, wings, and multiple eyes. She has antlers to show the jackalope prompt, and has a chimera body of other fishes. I guess goldfish IS already there, because one: she’s a fish woman, and two: there’s gold on her.
For favourite dino, well… I mean the other dino prompt is there, and a dino with giant spikes on it is pretty cool. But personally, my favourite dino has to be baryonyx. Because yes.
And I’d like to think despite her look, she sounds VERY masculine.
And now, the last one. Cthulhu.
Yep, that’s right. The lovecraftian horror Cthulhu, has been hiding at the end of the finale of the Mermay AU this whole time.
I basically did my own version of him, instead of that octopus part on its head, it has tendril hair. Neet.
Now, it IS over, but there is a post Mermay comic tomorrow on 31st, which is also when I will show Naveks TRUE design which is a TSP narrator design.
But overall, yea! All the prompts are done now! But there is one last thing to do now.
Here’s a little sketch comic prior to the post Mermay comic:
In this comic, basically Mizu, my Mermay-sona, has made a deal with Cthulhu himself to save the world from an existential threat, but at the cost of becoming seafoam. Meanwhile Zuomeng/Narrator and Ellis’s potions wear off, and are teleported back to the surface/their world.
Mermay day 29!
Previous prompt post here! Right here!
Prompts today are:
Line, Yeti crab, Leprechaun, Boujee, Dimorphodon, KRAKEN AGAIN FOR SOME REASON- and Mola mola.
So for Line it is both a Stanley Parable Adventure Line reference, and there’s a squad of mermaids, in a line. The leader here has the fancy leprechaun drip. And has a kraken-like tail fin.
For yeti crab basically they all have some half fur on them, while the leader has fluffy sleeves. The leader has extra fins to show the dimorphodon prompt, while the others don’t and look like half fluffy mola mola mermaids. Oh yea, the other three also are given a scenecore hairstyle and eye style.
Anyway, just TWO days left now until the end, so uhhh I guess I’ll show the the 30th and 31st prompts tomorrow! I do have a post event comic on 31st, revealing the true form of Navek, which is a tsp narrator design.
Mermay day 28!
Previous prompt post
Damn, I can’t believe we’re almost at the end of May, crazy.
Anyway, the prompts today are:
Drift, Chimaera, Wendigo, (not my) Birthday, Tanystropheus, Leviathan again for some reason, and Sally Lightfoot.
For drift I made them look like they were just gently drifting through the currents of the depths, then for chimaera, leviathan and wendigo, I made the first half of the lower half fluffy to represent it, and the second half shark like because chimaera are also called ghost sharks. Oh yea, and I gave them candle antlers and earrings to represent the birthday prompt.
For tanystropheus, I basically made this character’s tail, torso and neck ELONGATED. I originally was just gonna give her a normal neck until I thought: “wait, why not make her neck elongated just like the dino?” And so I did. And for sally lightfoot it is the small crab pincers and the blue hue.
So here you basically have a deep sea nun-healer-cleric who drifts around in the depths/R’yeh and has an elongated body and neck. Yep.
Mermay day 27!
Last time on Mermay
So! Prompts this time are:
Curator, Siphonophores, Salamanda, Honor, Dyplosaurus, Polar, and Hagfish!
For curator, it’s a TSP reference once again. Yep.
For siphonophores and hagfish and salamanda, I based the siphonophores part off of the longest one out there in the sea. I also gave her little salamander legs and a slimy texture. Because yes. Oh yea, and she’s a fire summoner. Because of the mythology of salamanda.
For honor I gave her the same little Greek garland thingy, but this time it’s like a halo. I’m starting to see a pattern here…. Weird.
For dyplosaurus I also gave her horns similar to dyplosaurus itself. Maybe at the tail end she has a club just like the dino.
And for polar… I’m not really sure. Maybe it could be the icy colours I gave her? Or maybe in the depths she lives in, it is also a bit cold there? Who knows, honestly.
A little lore idea thingy since that manowar jelly character which I named Nehpets is also a siphonophore and wears the wreath thingy, I’d like to think that Nehpets and this character (which I’d probably name Yelsel, which is Lesley reversed) are siblings. And that Greek wreath thing, which was also seen on the sequential character, is maybe a symbol of this protector-group they’ve made in the Depths.
You know what? Maybe I’ll redesign the 17th prompt to fit with this idea more- I’ll probably show off a Mermay doodle dump at the end of May-
Mermay day 26!
Previously on Mermay
So the prompts today are:
Radiant, Umbrella octopus, Dryad, Tea, Albertadromeus, Subterranean, aaand Whiptail ray!
So here you have…. A non mermaid again, but I guess a goddess with the prompt aspects in there. At least I put the prompts in there.
So basically for radiant I based her off the Apotheosis from Slay The Princess, because, come on. She’s probably bright as the sun. For umbrella octopus and whiptail ray I basically made her a dress where the skirt is all flexible and flowy like an octopus, but also has dangerous little stabby tentacles on it. For Tea I gave her horns that are basically built like teacup handles, along with her arm/leg bandage thingies. They’re green tea flavoured btw.
For Dryad I based her off a willow tree, which is why her hair’s a bit droopy. for Albertadromeus I gave her little dino feet. If you can see it, that is. And for subterranean, I’d like to think this character usually lives in dark caves with water in them, but she somehow found herself in the depths/R’yeh. You’ll see at the end for why I say “R’yeh”. If you know, you know.
And btw it was my mom’s bday today so that’s cool! So basically this is just a bday gift for her. :)
This is a mermaid I swear- DEFINITELY I SWEAR I GOT ALL THE PROMPTS FOR TODAY-
Mermay day 25!
Previous Mermay post if you didn’t already see it!
Prompts today this time are… sigh, here we go again.
The prompts are:
Wine, Deepsea dragonfish, Relaxed, Lamia, Towel, Kalligrammatid, Elemental (I chose air), and Man’O’war.
So basically here you have a sorta gelatinous wine mermaid who has wine and air elements. And of course, they’re a narrator in disguise. But they’re not a TSP narrator!
So for Wine I gave him basically a sort of wine-purple color and also gave him some grape accessories because, well, wine did come from grapes. I also gave him eyes that looks like he’s chill for the relaxed prompt.
For Deepsea dragonfish, Lamia, Man’O’war and Elemental, I made his body more on the Man’O’war side, with lamia and deepsea dragon fish being the elongated tail, I got the element idea from the element-Mermay prompt list made by the same person who did the mystical creatures Mermay 2024 prompt list. The element on that prompt and day was air, so I decided to choose it. So basically for Air I gave him little wing fins based off the blue glaucus, which feeds on man’O’war, and gave him clouds that surround him. Btw did you know that man’O’wars are also called blue bottles? And are actually siphonophores? I found that interesting. Oh yea, and the eye markings are based on the kalligrammatid.
And for Towel, ho boy. You see, I didn’t really like the original prompt for day 25, because it was just…. Why. Just why. So I renamed it to towel. And that, my chat, is a national day for HHGTTG, which is basically The Stanley Parable before The Stanley Parable. I mean, come on, both have a British narrator who sound IDENTICAL to each other, and they even BEGIN similarly. So basically I made this character a reference to the HHGTTG Narrator, which is the same dude as LBP Narrator. NOT the same TSP narrator though, VERY DIFFERENT. His name would be Nehpets, which is Stephen in reverse. Just like Navek, which is Kevan. And he also has a towel on his shoulder. Which is also a bit literal in a way.
SO BASICALLY I NOW HAVE TWO CHARACTERS NOW WHICH ARE NARRATORS AND ARE BASED OFF A VOICE ACTOR WHO PLAYED A NARRATOR-
WHAT THE HELL-
Mermay day 24!
Previous prompt post if you didn’t see it!
Prompts today AREEEE:
Voices, Football fish, Djinn, Feline, Xenoceratops, Reptile, and Vampire squid.
So here ya got an anthro cat squid person who is being followed by a giant invisible draconic football fish mermaid who can grant wishes, if you follow his script.
For Voices, Football fish, Djinn and Reptile, basically I made a giant draconic deep sea mermaid who goes invisible and pretends to be a disembodied voice. Yea, he’s another Narrator. If this large lad ever chooses you to narrate, it’s best you follow his voice. It is said that he can grant your desire if you complete his story.
And for Feline, Xenoceratops and Vampire squid, we have this cat-vampire squid mermaid whose hair looks like the frill of a xenoceratops. Unfortunately for her, she is the chosen vessel for the giant draconic one. But that deep sea mermaid is a bit… clingy, this time. Following her wherever she goes. No matter how hard she tried to get help or get rid of him, that voice is always still there.
Um yea! That’s the prompt! Here’s something to you, so uhhh I forgot I edited the 25th prompt of the official Mermay 2024 prompt list to Towel. I think you know where this is heading, if you know the one of the national days for May 25th.
DAMN THESE GODDAMN BRITISH NARRATORS ARE EVERYWHERE AND THEY AINT LEAVIN ME ALONE-
Mermay day 23!
Previous post prompt here chat
Prompts today are:
Mimic, Fangtooth fish, Warrior, Troll, John musker??? Auronis, Bioluminescent, and Mata Mata.
For mimic and Auronis, if you cannot see, I gave this character’s lower half a second mouth, the top half basically being a trap. Btw it looks bird like if you cannot make out the shape in the darkness.
For Bioluminescent, Troll and Fangtooth fish, I gave her bioluminescent inside hair and little markings, she also has sharp teeth! And btw, the horns are a homestuck reference.
For John Musker, Warrior, and Mata Mata, I gave her a cool paintbrush spear with a Mata Mata shell-shield. She’s basically the warrior of the depths, aka R’yeh. You see where this is going, ya feel me?
So yea all together you get a warrior of the depths who is also basically a deep sea siren and is highly creative. Yep.
Mermay day 22!
Previous prompt post <- if you didn’t see it
Prompts this time are:
Lovebug, Oarfish, Werewolf, Lagoon, Giganotosaurus, and Shark and Unicorn fish!
So I done a anthro furry fish this time. Yep. Still remember that I did the prompts.
For lovebug I gave her liquid-y eyes and mouth with an opened ribcage. Btw Lovebug is a bit of a TSP AU (Stanley Parable AU) reference. For Shark and Oarfish I gave her an elongated shark tail with those fins of an oarfish that’s also the hair. Unicorn fish is self explanatory, it literally the horn. Lagoon is the colour palette I gave her, and for werewolf I gave her little ears and fur tufts.
I’d like to think that this character is the older sister of the second prompt I did-
And btw I gotten the freedom motif. Again. Aka it’s May holidays. So I will definitely post earlier and have more time to make these prompt characters-
Mermay day 21!
Previous prompt post riiight here if ya didn’t see it!
Prompts today are:
Herbs, Whale shark, Peace, Gorgon, Sequential, Barsboldia, Glide, and Sea robin.
So basically all together, you have basically a trio that is like a pokemon evolution, and the big one is the healer of the trio.
For preface I gave the big woman gorgon a peace symbol on her left shoulder, because yea. For glide I made the trio look like they’re gliding through the depths of the sea, and also gave them sea robin fins for gliding as well.
Sequential is self explanatory, it’s basically the trio itself, it represents a sequence.
For herbs I gave big lass as well a Druid herb staff, because yes. For gorgon and Barsboldia, they’re all basically gorgon-like ichthyocentaurs.
For lore basically they are also defenders of the depths, but mostly the healers in the defender group. Yea.
Sorry this was basically rushed dear god-
Mermay day 20!
Previous prompt post if you didn’t see it!
Anyways today’s prompts are:
Godly, Tuna, Diamond, Wraith, Zendaya? Hatzegopteryx, Weapon, and Betta fish.
So here you got a character who is a goddess of fighting probably and a protector of the deep.
For Godly and Wraith, I made her look at least god/goddess like and pretty “inhuman” and a bit skeletal in design. For Diamond I gave her diamond gem hair similar to Dia from HNK, for Zendaya I’d say it would be similar to Navek, her name would be Ayadnez, or Yadanez ralsei style.
And for Hatzegopteryx, Tuna, Weapon and Bettafish, her lower body is similar to the pterosaur mixed with bettafish and with the markings of a tuna. She also has a neet god-like weapon. Cool.
I guess I can show you what the original sketch looked like, so here you go:
Damn this design basically got a glow up-
Mermay day 19!
Previous prompt post here
Today’s prompts are:
Jewellery, Mako shark, Octopus probably- Fairy, Jade, Atlanticopristis, Camouflage, and Algae.
So for jewellery and jade I made her have jewellery with some jade on it. Not only that, she also is as tough as a jade, withstanding heavy blows. She’s basically a badass guard fighter. 😎
The fairy prompt is the little translucent fins she has, and I’d like to imagine she flaps those fins very fast to swim fast maybe.
And for octopus, mako shark, atlanticopristis, camouflage and algae, she has algae-green scales and hair to probably blend in within the dark depths maybe, but since she can withstand heavy blows, I’m not sure. She also has tentacles for hair, hinting at that she is a vessel of something much, much, larger. Much more……. Incomprehensible. (I mean, she IS in the depths of the sea, after all.) And mako shark is the lower body, with the tips of their tail fins being spiky, hinting at the atlanticopristis.
So uhh here you have it, a tough as hell guard who guards the lower entrance to the depths, or “R’yeh” if you know what I mean, you’ll see at the 31st~ the very end of May. :)
Mermay day 18!
Previous post if you didn’t see that: previous post
Today’s prompts today are:
Adventurer, Hourglass dolphin, Pirate, Nymph, Smol, Psittacosaurus, Draconic and Horseshoe crab.
All of these combined makes a little pirate adventurer who explores the giant seas, and meets people all the while.
For Adventurer, Pirate, Horseshoe crab, Draconic and Psittacosaurus, I made her a pirate whose hat is a skull of a dragon that looks like the dino with feathers on it. Her jacket is also the shell of a horseshoe crab, and she has a pointy tail appendage to help her balance or something. And she also has little scales and cheek horns.
And for nymph, smol and hourglass dolphin, you may think she’s normal size due to how she’s illustrated, but she’s actually TINY. Like pixie tiny. About the size of a tiny palm. For hourglass I did put the dolphin part in as you can see, but I also put in the “hourglass” part from it, giving her little hourglass accessories.
Mermay day 17!
Previous post if you haven’t seen that one already!
So prompts are Dungeon, Anchovy, Emotional, Cerberus, Anime, Repenomamus, Filter feeder, and thresher shark.
Basically for dungeon it was supposed to be a homage to the final dlc of dungeons 3 which came out May 17th, but due to anime in the radius I accidentally created dungeon meshi oops-
Here you have a small anchovy fish mammal centaur with her giant eldritch horror in the vessel of three chained shark folk. Yea!
For anchovy and filter feeder, I made it into the small character right here, she’s also referencing a character in the dungeons 3 game as well.
And for ALLL the others I combined it into the three chained shark folk behind her, basically they’re vessels for an eldritch horror, each vessel represents half of its emotions, but overtime, the chains have started to rust and break, closely releasing its true self.
Dungeon is sorta lore related, basically they’re are the Devine protectors of the “dungeon” part of the abyss, “the chained Cerberus” is what you should really beware of in the dungeons.
