Inktober 52 2025 - Week 38 - 'Squid'

Humboldt squid are known to be very dangerous at night, especially in groups. I imagine the mermaid version is much like meeting a red sea devil.

Pencil drawing of a mermaid inspired by a vampire squid. Her torso has human anatomy, though it's coloured orange, but the lower part of her body resembles the tentacles and webbing of a vampire squid. She also has this webbing between her fingers and on her ears. Her hair is inspired by the shape of the head of a vampire squid; it has two small buns near her face and one big, voluminous section at the back of her head.
