I'm a Big Mouth

[ink_in_hand]

Was asked how the mouth works on a Gulper mer. Well, a Gulper isn't a Gulper unless it can open it's mouth like this. And now I've gotten quite attached to the thin-armed/too skinny guy.



And if anyone gets the title quote, you are amazing.

Such a happy mer~

Thanks for the clarification. So now I have to wonder if he's a bad secret keeper XD

With a mouth that big, I couldn't NOT show him with a giant grin.

Not really, I was being literal. *willfully ignored metaphorical interpretation* But wouldn't it make for a great character if everyone figured that someone with a huge mouth would suck at keeping secrets, yet turns out at being one of the best?

I'm sure he's happy that you decided he'd be happy (Would this count as a paradox?)

Yeah, but I overthought the gag--bad me, sometimes humor's literal--and yes, such a flip would be very interesting. I feel another character story coming on for you...

If I actually wrote out every character story that popped into my head I would need a whole 'nother lifetime to write them all out. >_

He is -Fantastic-! There are not enough deep sea Mers out there! *Must continue delving deeper into art blog...*

Why...hello there.

Counting this guy I think I have about five deep sea mers. A coelacanth and tripod fish that I haven't drawn in months, a set of polychaete tomopterid twins that I love dearly but are complicated as hell to do... oh and I've got a Giant Rattail too but he's not been drawn in years. *makes note to do so again sometime soon*

Well if you're going to look, I hope you have quite a bit of free time on your hands. As pretty much every single post has art in it. And feel free to comment on anything, I don't mind old post discussions.

(Especially if you leave behind such yummy compliments XD)
