Holiday 2021 process

I had no time to work on this but I really wanted to do a holiday drawing so I ended up staying up till 2am lol. Hope you all have a good one 💕

Sleepy drawing process

I shouldn't be drawing on my day off but I wanted to do something cute 💙🧡

General update

Hey guys! Sorry for the lack of content, I no longer have a buffer so the episodes have taken up most of my time. However I'm nearing the end of the season and when I start preparing for season 3 I'll have a lot of concept stuff to share.

As of now I'm planning for season 2 to end around ...

Halloween2021 process

Idk how I managed to finish this drawing lol but I really wanted to make something for Halloween 🎃

Siren Kappa Ref Sheet

Here's a basic reference sheet for the boys. I don't think I've ever made a proper one like this lol.

I've been super swamped lately but I hope to be able to post more stuff soon. Also there might be something exciting around the holiday season but I'm not for sure yet. Thanks for all the...

Castle Colonies Guide Sheets

These are the guide sheets I use for this current part of the story.

Sorry I haven't been posting much!

Kappa sleepin

A little sketch that was fun to do.

Kappa's S3 outfit?

I did this as a warmup on top of my episode lol. I want to give siren and kappa new little outfits for season 3 and I was thinking something with a similar shape to this for kappa's. But with a different design maybe. Perhaps with more ocean elements.

However I still need it to be easy to...

Arp bag

A passing thought I had.

Witch rough designs

There was originally going to be a fourth witch that was blind but there were too many characters to balance, so I sort of merged that character with Mono.

Usually when I name characters, I name them all after the first letter of their race. But with the witches I ended up reusing the nam...

The evolution of Kappa and Siren

The boys from when I first created them in 2013 all the way to 2019 when I joined webtoon.

Kappa jewelry sketch

I sketched this after work today. I don't think kappa would ever wear something like this unless he was alone with Siren lol.

Deleted Scene

I've posted this online before but it's kinda hard to find so I figured I'd post it here as well.

This scene got cut from the comic when I transitioned to webtoon because it was too long and I needed a scene that was shorter.

Herm concept sketches

I can't remeber who inspired herm but my main idea for them was a hermit crab mermaid who sat in their shell like a chair.

I also wanted them to hoard a lot of items in the name or research which inspired me to make the inside of their house similar to the little mermaid. I hid some refer...

Lord Ogo concept art

Ogo was actually based on a giant robo crab that I created in my first webcomic called 'kappa'

Back then I was putting way more detail into my panels (to am unsustainable degree lol) and the design was more realistic and creepy.

The original was also based on a spider crab which h...

Siren Kappa sketches

I like doing loose sketches like this 👍

Pride2021 process

I went a little crazy with the rainbow gradients on this drawing. I stayed up late working on it because I was having a lot of fun. 

New Castle Design

Here's the rough sketches I did when I was trying to think of the new castle. I wanted something that was unique from the castles that have already appeared in the comic so I went with the weird, mutated Ferris wheel design lol. The multiple branches of the castle's 'arms' helped me figure out th...

Old Old concept art (part2)

I think most of this stuff was towards the end of college when I was preparing my first webcomic (which was an early crusty version of Castle Swimmer called 'kappa') I did a lot of these on the back of order sheets while I was a waitress. 

my art style is super different now so I somet...

Old Old concept art

These were the first sketches I did when I thought about making a mermaid comic. I think it was either late high school or early college. 

Kappa was originally going to have black hair and black spots and his name was 'Kai' the most unique anime boy name there ever was.
