Mermay 2023 - Blog Posts
random doodles from a discord vc
Hello everyone it’s been another long while since I last posted on Tumblr I know I say that a lot but I usually don’t post a lot of things on Tumblr some days.
Another reason why I haven’t been posting is because my health has gone downhill, May probably has to be the worst month of being a lot of pain.
But the good news is I’m doing a lot better, I’m sore but doing a lot better.
Anyways, I remember when me and my mom went shopping I saw a dress. And I knew this would be a type of dress, my OC character Stella would wear. I had a lot of fun with this drawing. Especially drawing out Stella’s dress and the sunset in the beach. And she looks like she’s getting ready for her date with her boyfriend, Roman.  One of my favorite digital art piece.  I try to mimic oppose of a mannequin for my drawing. And it’s also technically. mermay 🧜♀️. So I’m glad I got it done. Hope you like it.
The character, Stella is my OC character belongs to me!
I’m gonna go to bed now, it’s 11:00pm now for me, by the time I posted this. Good night 🌙💤.

It is Mer-may my dudes
omg this took so dang long lol
Considering it is Mermay and I've wanted to contribute since I was younger, I will honor my younger self and contribute to this year's Mermay! This is my OC Finn, he's a mershark.
This feels unreal to me considering a year ago I couldn't figure out where to start with drawing human like things, and now I'm here drawing an oc that I've had since I was in middle school. I'm just psyched that this turned out so well, and for a first try I'm very proud of myself. :]
Day 30!
Her hair looks dumb :)
Wow we're almost done with mermay! I've actually managed to keep up with it! (watch me get hit by a bus and miss the last day lol)
Day 29
Extra close up of her face because i like the way it turned out, but it looks weird zoomed out.
Also, i kind of gave up on her tail whoops
Day 28
Maybe i gave her a lot of jewelry instead of going to sleep on time. Who can say.
Mermay day 27!
almost a month in, and this is the first time i've played with a more different angle
Day 26
so i definitely started this past midnight but who's keeping track
She's dancing :)
or stretching?
Mermay Day 25!
less low effort day lets goooooo
also, what am i doing to attract so many pornbots and how do i make them stop
aslo also, can i change the crop so that--random example here--i don't cut faces in half?
Day 24!
Low effort day lets gooooooo
Day 23!
This the first one in a few days that i've been really happy with!
Mermay day 22
sooooooo maybe her shadows are the wrong way. Maybe i painted her right next to another pink mermaid and had to move her and she only fit when i flipped her around. maybe.
Day 21
Well my pen kept going in and out during the entire thing, had to switch to an old poorly configured tablet.
Also, another, 'I started it before midnight so it still counts!'
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 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
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
