It's Mermay and I can't let May pass by without some merman art. Got a color rough going that I'm liking so I think I'll take this guy to polish.
Also gathered some of my exploration doodles I've been doing for my fairy folks. Nothing set in stone here, just a trying to see what sticks. I want a line-up of characters that have very distinct personalities and silhouettes. Not sure what the hairy dude on the right is, but I like the idea of a small race of non-flying fairy folk, with rodent/squirrel vibes too them. The character on the left is an attempt at a contrasting pixie to Bud. Anyway, like I said, not sure if I'm going to go with any of these characters, but wanted to show you the kind of sketches I do when starting character concepts.
