Finally got around to drawing something for MerMay

I wanted to experiment a little with the difference in sizes and make Drift as white as possible.... like an angel

I love his 'wings' 🥺

And I still don't understand how to draw digitally TT^TT

And another variant

Drift and little Roddy 🥺

SKETCHES SKETCHES SKETCHES

I haven't drawn a robo-version of my OC for a long time (although I rarely draw her in principle)

In the process of random sketches, my old idea with Prima's wings began to take on at least some shape. I will definitely return to him and the other Primes

Also some more kids

And sketches from the beach, drawn in the pose of a twisted shrimp

Jeweled mer~

Drift is now adorned with a brilliant pearl and coral necklace, black pearl gleaming in the middle.

He’s quite proud of it and will proudly show it off to any mer or anyone else who wants to see it!

But no touching!

[driftsetadrift]

Drift continued his search through clams and oysters, this time dropping most of the meat into a pouch to be salted and preserved later, and collecting the pearls and prettiest shells. 

Of course snacking on many along the way.

Now he had to preserve them in a jar, or waste the tasty treats. Carefully following instructions he cleaned and submerged them in the salty brine, saltier even than the sea around him.

“Hope this doesn’t ruin them.” Speaking to himself. “Welp now to see how many pearls I’ve gotten in total!”

[driftsetadrift]

I redrew merdrift, made him more thresher sharky. Plus spots.

[driftsetadrift]

Welp, he should have known...

He spent all day searching oysters for more pearls, found lots of pretty little pearls too, none as beautiful or large as his precious black one, but lovely none the less, along with many marvelous shells. He was going to make something, jewelry perhaps, out of this.

However, for every oyster he opened holding a pearl, there were two that did not, and the mer happily gobbled down every one of them before moving on to the next. 

In between searching of course he was swim spinning right out of the water, then quickly returning to his search, greedily opening and devouring oyster after oyster.

Is it any wonder, that now the poor mer has a terrible tummy ache?

Carefully makes a door for his cave

He’s already filled it with glowing plants and a few fish in a cage for light.

Now its time to explore, its hard trying to live on you’re own!
