There's gotta be more mer-tails for V4/A4/M4/H4.

I'll admit I was inspired by the new PotC: On Stranger Tides when the mermaids showed up ^_^ Man-eating mermaids...hmmmm...am liking that a lot!! hahaha kidding...kinda...sorta...pffft...no I'm not! So could someone design some mer-tails please??

But then me got to thinking...why not a new race of mers? Nothing cutesy but something more dark and forbodding...like DARK MERS...Drows with fish tails but minus the white hair/brows... and tails like sharks or something ragged, yah know? Good idea, yes? Maybe?

People with scales? I'm in.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

Why not an octopus body?

I might take that challenge, if somebody else is willing to texture that.

The only problem is that I don't have the necessary tools to make easy-pose tentacles... or the skill to do that by hand.

Oh cool!!

Maybe BagginsBill could help you out...??

Fugly start, but it's a start.

Not sure about how to model those 8 tentacles symmetrically... might use Zbrush for this, it has radial symmetry.

Will probably work on this slowly, I have three products waiting to be finished and released...

OMG Ohki...it looks awesome to me!! ^^ And no rush really...take your time...Woooot!! But am sure in the end it will be hella awesome!! ^^

It dawned on me that it might be easier to sculpt one straight tentacle and leave 8 holes where they join the body, then attach 8 copies of the straight tentacle to the holes.

Will try it later, today is game day with my friends (WOOT, I spend the whole weekend anxious for saturday to come because of this!)
