Description "Tristan, the Banished Prince" prints now available! Link HERE .Β 

To start off this year's "Mermay" I decided to share both prints of my Banished Prince that I've been bringing with me to conventions! It's been requested for a while that I start uploading prints to my online shop and I'll slowly begin doing so =]

The prints include both the "Regular" edition and the "Limited Edition Gold Prints". For the exclusive prints, I hand melt gold accents on each piece and will only make 100 and once they're gone, they're gone! You can see more info about the prints on Etsy and for those interested in his story, you can read that here:

πŸ“™ "Tristan, the banished prince.

While Triton had many daughters, he only had one son. Triton was a terribly stubborn and cruel ruler of the seas and the thought of passing down his kingdom simply mortified him. Banished to live outside of the ruling kingdom, Tristan grew envious and saddened by his father's decision. When old enough, he returned to steal the conch that Triton used to call forth mighty storms from. Tristan believed this object was rightfully his to inherit. Unbeknownst to him however, the conch was laced with a black spell casted upon those who may try and take it for themselves. This spell caused any speech to materialize as black bubbles, only to have the words be heard once they popped in the waters surface. Tristan now searches the sea for someone to help him without the ability to explain how."

Wonderful artwork, may I suggest photographing your work head-on as opposed to at an angle?

your pencil work is an artwork itself, i love how many small textures you got in there!

Hoppety [2018-05-02 09:21:09 +0000 UTC]

Amazing! I love how well-done the textures are and the attention to detail. You can really see the difference between the human skin and the sea creature skin and I love the little starfish attached to his tail. If I may give one critique, it's that it's hard to see the iris and pupils of his eyes. Because of that, his face has somewhat of a "classic marble statue" vibe, maybe you intended it that way?

It's also great how you didn't just submit a scan of the drawing, but took the time to surround the drawing with shells and nets; it really adds something

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the reason I'm still on DeviantART.
Not every art piece submitted is MSpaint, mouse-drawn, fat fetish art.
There are rare nuggets of meticulously drawn, well-composed, highly detailed pieces with truly original ideas and concepts.

Bravo/Brava, my friend. This is a piece of art that clearly shows the skill and talent of the hand behind the pencil, and you ought to be proud of this beautiful merperson. Kudos and props!

Ah thanks a bunch! I feel the same way about DA, you gotta search for the gold nuggets amongst the rest of the work on here!
