May i offer some mer au during these trying times?
SO- i've been rambling a whole lot with @thedemonsurfer and @basilbots about an au where Eclipse 3.0 is a fisherman who rescues a mer Ruin after being caught by poachers (more info under the cut!)
So like my runaways au this is set in the main fnaf verse instead of the sams one. Eclipse was a dca model that got decommissioned but reactivated to be sold as a work robot so a lot of his memory is very janky.
He was bought and made to work for a shady fishing company (borderline pirates) where the boat he is on catches a roughed up little mer with a crooked tail and missing fins. Eclipse is made to guard the mer whom he sort of befriends over time and once they reach the shipping warehouse he has a change of heart when he realises this fish is sentient (and shaking hands in trapped and alone)
He sets Ruin free (burning down the company in the process) and finds a new home and life working as a free robot for a smaller but more legit fishing business in an out of the way fishing town. However Ruin turns up at his new home some months later and- they were roommates!
I have a few oneshots drafted and planned for this already! Butters (demonsurfer) already wrote a oneshot for it which you can read here! (Please go read it it gives me so much soul sustenance)
when's it my turn? wouldn't i love
love to explore that shore up above?
out of the sea
wish i could be part of that world ⛅🌊🐚
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW GLAD I AM THAT I GOT TO DRAW SOME EMAMAYA FOR @onceuponaturnaboutzine!!! i've wanted to draw these two in a high-effort drawing for a long while now and this zine just gave me the perfect opportunity, truly a dream come true! ✨
like this art? it's a print, here! | like what i do? support me on ko-fi!
some initial sketches for what their designs are! just some big inspiration from the disney movie and also splatoon unintentionally, WHEEZES. also, i just thought it'd be hilarious if phoenix was maya's fish sidekick instead
i also originally had a more busy composition but it was just too cluttered and i couldn't find a way to make it work so i decided to just focus on a single moment instead of several!
