purple is an unstable color

I went genuinely a little insane drawing this lmao. Drew this after a looong art drought and it’s one of the more ambitious thing I’ve tried. I know I could’ve probably done things better and different but I’m still very proud of how this turned out, especially considering I don’t draw scenes and bigger pieces like this usually!I love the ocean and marine life so much and whale falls are so so important and cool to me and Eridan is such an interesting and important character to me I really wanted to do him justice!! The potential his character had is so important to me and I will not take criticism for how I see him lmao. I’m very relaxed with most differing homestuck opinions but Eridan haters dni lowkey highkey lmao. I love this stupid fish and I will die on this hill.
