Sketched this after seeing the movie in theaters twice, forgot about it for a couple months, then decided to finish it after getting bashed upside the head with a Bloodymary obsession. Bone apple teeth

“An asteroid-sized chunk of matter tailored for computation. A delicate filigree of golden, glowing threads, spun like sugar. The shape of a man, filled with light, his head an ever-shifting geometric plane. Not omnipotent, but nearly there. They control their local zone with near-totality, swimming through hyperspace as easily as breathing. If they are aware of you at all, it is as if a scientist is aware of an ant in a terrarium. Human, once.” - Mothership: Unconfirmed Contact Reports

wanted to draw some decoration on the flaps here, but we've been so exhausted and out of practice drawing lately that we just didn't want to do it and decided not to strain ourselves.

we've had some ideas lately on what merfolk "coats" might look like. this is a deceptively simple design made out of thick fabric and likely lined with fur for miranda's purposes in specific. the arms are folded and held against the chest, and can also double as a pocket. there are slits underneath the flaps there, so that she can stick her arms out and use them when she needs to.

I finally finished the cover artwork for Caecilian, my current big fanfiction project, and right in time for Chapter 4: Crossing the Threshold to be posted! I wanted something that put both Miranda and Aaravi next to each other, to show off their physical differences that are at full display inside Caecilian, and also to practice rendering water, as much as it kills me.

If you don't know what Caecilian is, in short: Aaravi has just newly entered into a relationship with Miranda, but the full context of that relationship is beyond her. She might call her her wife or her girlfriend, but in truth they are something called "ul'kiha", which exists as a cultural concept within the Merkingdom but Aaravi can only approximate.
