Mermay - deep sea boyfriends
my friend asked me to draw them again and i had such a blast the past hours !! i've sketched a lot ;; i love working on OCs so much. i've designed them last year for #mermay and it's really the perfect time to pick them up again. their names are Veska (a ghost shark) and Eli (he's a lantern fish / angler fish mix)
i'm fascinated and a bit scared by the deep sea for as long as i remember and i might or might not be a little bit of a monster f...... lover! so yeah, self indulgence 100% with these two
Veska is very calm and shy even, while Eli is a huge flirt and showers his crush with gifts and affection (dead fish and glowy flowers. romantic yeah?)
Eli has a hard time winning Veska's heart at first, or at least it seems like it, but i'm sure some dangerous things will spice it up real fast (OKAY OKAY I HAVE NO IDEA YET! maybe a little bit of an idea though~ i'll keep you updated)
here's some more from last year

Cute!
Definitely keep us updated! I missed them so much.
Lol I love how Eli's tail is just casually wrapped around Veska's XD those little bits of affection are the best
They are both so beautiful! I'm really happy you drew more of them and I definitely wouldn't mind seeing more of them outside of May as well. <3
maybe i can really draw a short comic of them, that'd be so nice ; ; i love working on Ghost Lights but having another small project is refreshing once in a while <3 and i'm so glad you like them already!! thank you 💕
