I've been working on oc stuff all month(and actually a lot of may too) on oc content for Artfight this year (very excited btw)

I decided to take a break with the sudden inspiration to draw mers now... NOW of all times and not May. Thanks art gods, you've done it again. Appreciate chya </3

The two uncolored ones are of my personal mer designs for them (which still bother me and honestly still working on and *have* been working on since May of 2022 so coolio boolio).

Anyway, I don't wanna say I'm showing favoritism... buuuttttt I ab-so-lut-ly LOVE @mocha-illustrates and they are definitely my favorite mer designs right now. I wanna give them kisses and show them love v bad. (please mocha, please give me permission. I ask nice.)

They're underwater and y/n has magic water-breathing powers, or something don't question it :]

[ID: The first image is a digital sketch of Y/N holding Sea Butterfly!Sun in a large fishing net. Y/N stands to the right of Sun wearing a wetsuit. They are facing slightly right, with their right hand on their hip and the other hand supporting the handle of the net that rests over their shoulder. They are looking back at Sun with an amused smirk. To the left of them, Sun is slightly larger than human-sized. His whole body is inside the net besides his arms and head which are leaning onto the handle of the net. The net bends with his weight, and his crossed arms cradle his head as he looks at Y/N with an amused smile. The lineart is orange and the background is white. The artist’s signature in the bottom left follows the curve of the net and reads, “MOCHA ILLUSTRATES”.  The second image is a digital sketch of Y/N holding Firefly Squid!Moon in a large fishing net. Y/N stands to the left of Moon wearing a wetsuit. They are facing slightly left and are looking down curiously at Moon in the net. They have their hands up as they hoist the handle of the net above their head to hold Moon up. To their right, Moon is slightly larger than human-sized. He is upside and his tentacles are spilling out over the rim of the net. His arms are cradling his head as he looks up at Y/N with an annoyed expression. The lineart is blue and the background is white. The artist's signature in the bottom right follows the curve of the net and reads, “MOCHA ILLUSTRATES”. END ID.]
