I went to vve art supply shop, and vvere was a fantasy illustration guide ffing. And it was.... not marketed as a How To Draw Fantasy, it was marketed as.... I don't remember exactly how it was marketed. But I was looking at it, because it was in vve tutorials, but said it was a sketchbook. And vvat worked because it was baseacally one page of sketches, part how-to and part how-it's-made and part reference, and vven ffree or so blank pages to sketch on.
And it was interesting, but if vvat was what was memorable to me about it I would put it on my ovver blog.
What was memorable was flipping ffrough it randomly and finding a Mermaid page. Vvere were a bunch of examples of how mermaid fins might go, and one of vve suggestions was two dorsal fins, or one fin-like ffing on each shoulder blade.
And, whale. One of my difficulties in kintype certainty is not knowing how to classify vvese ffings on my back, which are. Eivver insect-wings like I'm currently figuring, or vvose fins.
And it felt good. To see vvat my kind of mermaid can be experienced, or seen, or channeled, or imagined, or somefin, by someone else.
