Description
He guides the fragile Jelly-herd through deeper waters, hoping to find refuge from the storm.This
took
forever.
I actually started this picture several months ago with a sketch of the guy, then I got stuck after coloring him in. I couldn't decide on a background - you should see the different versions I had lol (Sea-dragon, Lionfish, Cthulhu... well, a giant squid actually.) Then with some helpful advice from a few stout art critics, I used an anglerfish.
I wanted break away temporarily from fanart to do some original art - so, here you go! A Jellyfish herd and a Merman, but their faint glow attracts something more deadly than bargained for. Round 1, Merman versus Anglerfish!
This will be available as a print, as soon as I figure the prints out. Yay!! My first official DA print!

This is awesome! Lovely colors and this is far from the usual. The detail is amazing and the lighting from the jellyfish and anglerfish's light really sets a dark mood to it. I'm especially captivated by his back fin and the scales on his side. Well done, well done!

Ooo! Round 1? So there's gonna officially be more of this merman fending off the list of potential Jelly predators?
I can't wait to see those! 8D

yay for your your first print! ^^
also, the angler fish is really nicely done. bit different than the squid/tentacle monster that you were playing with earlier, but those massive, toothy jaws are scary as hell. poor guy...

Hee hee, I'd have used Tentacles if I could have figured out how to work it, but I couldn't resist the Anglerfish's light. *get eaten*
