Description Part 4 of my project This is the last batch of Forlje now i have all 20 of them on paper and in color This is such a big step in making Welwera believable but I´m even happier how they all turned out. I certainly could not have done this one year ago and even now i noticed how i got more and more comfortable drawing lines and making them just the way i wanted which with long curves is tricky even with tablet. Tried my best to not make them simple anthros or mermaids but finding my own way between human and fish.

Fish Forlje are the most specialized among Forlje since they have the hardest living conditions, human skin would be impossible for underwater living hence they all look less human than other Forlje. They are also the most mysterious since they tend to keep to themselves and need water to live so they´ll only inhabit the seas or large lakes. Language is also a problem for some species even in human form which has been the cause for wars more than once. Flying fish are capable of 'flight' or long distance gliding.


I have to admit if it comes to their culture or habitat they are the most neglected Forlje since they don´t show up much in the story i never thought much about them doens´t mean i won´t change that though.


Which one is your favorite Personally I love Sailfish they´re easily my favorite of all fish although the shark Forlje aren´t too bad either

Hmm...favorite out of this bunch...that's kind of tough. These guys really don't look like traditional merfolk, so great job on that! ^-^
I'd have to say my favorite though is the flying fish. A close second would be the coalacanth.

yeah i really didn´t want to do the stereotypical mermaid concept because half-human half-fish underwater just doesn´t really work if you consider the temperature and salinity and i don´t want my characters to be victim of faulty design.

i wasn´t sure if the flying fish design was alright or not but if you like it then i´m gona leave it as it is perhaps only change the colors a bit ^^
