SciFi and Fantasy Art: Beneath the Zone of Twilight

I love mermaids. This is such a good piece.

very nice. I particularly enjoy how you did the biolumincent spots down the dragonfish mers side. just a wishfull suggestion mabe try doing a gulper eel or one of his ilk. that would be wonderful.

very good with the realistic nature of real fish like the gulper fish etc. Good use of marine biology in this piece. Good job.

Your mermaids are really original, as with all of your creatures, you do an excellent job. I have a bit of beef with the physiology of mers in general though (this isn't directed at yours) if mers are fish that means that they aren't mammals and therefore would have no use for breasts, so why do we still draw the females with breasts? I know that the whole mer thing came from bored perverted sailors, but things have changed, as a biology major what is your take on it?
also, assuming that merfolk don't have the same social values that we do, how come we never see male mers with long hair? or female mers with short hair? Why would they be subject to the same gender stereotypes as modern day humans?

ooooooo...I like the BlackDragon one...EWspecially the way you added the glowing rod on his chin...nice

Hey you have done really well good on ya hope you can talk with me some time bout your merfolk cheers m8 well done again.

Mash the waves to pound the flesh
where maids and men wish to mesh

sunder the sea to make ends meet
intertwined in love making heat

if cares wash away as salten spash
then land lubbers teeth begin to nash

This is a disgrace! I cannot believe it. The drawing sucks. And it just sucks all in all.

+Eyes Anonymous+ ...What the heck are you talking about? This is a very... cool drawing-painting. So what if the artist doesn't follow the normal trends of mermaids? Those fishies are cool. Oh, and it's bad, ey? How, exactly? It's -brilliant-.

Ha, that's great. My favorite's the dragonfish--he looks a tad insane, and with the tripod fish down there going "Oh, shut up you moron," it's just awesome. It's neat seeing such interesting fish--anything that glows just makes everything good.

They all have such strong personalities. They're very cool.
