Description
dizzyalyx.tumblr.com/post/1603… | www.patreon.com/DizzyAlyx ;Meet Sallas, or "Sal" one of my oldest OCs. He was the first merm I ever made and has changed quite a lot in design, not that I've ever posted him before xD I don't really know why. He's a large part of my mer world.
I've hinted him in this though: Merfolk Lesson 02: Speech
Sallas I generally very sarcastic, bossy, and doesn't have patience for anyone's crap especially Arlans. He's one of the very few mers I have that actually wears clothes. I like him a lot, and hopefully you guys will too!

Aww I'm sure you will get to it soon enough!
I have two random questions though about Merfolk appearance in World of Forgotten. 1) Can they have unnatural colored skin or are they restricted to human skin shades? 2) Do they have nipples? I noticed there aren't nipples at least on the females in the comic (wasn't paying attention to know if the guys did), and I wondered if this was because they don't have them, an artistic choice for your style, or a censorship thing for DA lol

1, No, they have the same range of skin tones as humans
2, Yes, they do! I tend to cover up the female ones when I draw them properly, though there are a few pages where I've drawn women more cartoony/doodle-like and I didn't bother drawing anything there. xD Theres a good example of that here: gyazo.com/ed384e56879b6b74af62… Where in the left panel, I would have given Ellien nipples, but I just covered them up instead so I don't have to put the page behind a mature filter, and on the right panel, she's drawn in a much more doodley way and I didn't bother with putting details like nipples on. :}
As for the guys, nipples on guys aren't something I usually draw anyway!

1) I figured, but wanted to make sure! ^-^
2) Ah! Makes perfect sense! I agree that this is probably the best way. ^-^ Censoring is unneeded and would hurt the comic! (Also it seems silly that non-sexual nudity has to be censored on this site, but whatever... >.>)

Fair enough! Besides, it gives him character.
