Clare spent time exploring the house reef, which proved to be one of the best yet — crystal-clear visibility, thriving coral, and a dazzling variety of marine life just a few fin-kicks from shore. 🐠💙

This OC is another obscure one, so obscure in fact that ive only drawn her once and have never posted her. I made Coral using one of those Picrews (linked below) and just never used her since :/
picrew.me/en/image_mak...

#oc #ocart #picrew
The original Picrew of my OC Coral all the way from the year 2022! When i said i never used her i meant it! She's pink with very light freckles, blue lips, spiky fin ears with two gold ring earrings, a dark blue pixie cut, and blue and yellow eyes. You cant see her entire outfit but shes wearing some sort of sleeveless white top A drawing of my OC Coral from a page where I drew a lot of (mostly unused) OCs. She's a fish of some kind but I've never thought of what she'd be or if she'd have any relation to Reef, my other fish OC. Maybe a sister? Or even a girlfriend? 👀

Pseudanthias squamipinnis, Anilao. Its common name might be a lyretail anthias, or a scalefin anthias, or a sea goldie, depending on who you ask. But whatever they're called, they're always good to hang out with on the reef tops at the end of a dive.

A small colourful fish. Its body is orange, becoming purple-tinged towards the head and pale towards the tail. It has a prominent purple blotch at the base of its light purple pelvic fin and a purple tale with a dark margin. The erect dorsal fin has a yellow stripe at the base of the front part, a red stripe running into a black spot at the top of the rear half, and a long yellow spine rising from the front. There are plate corals in the background. #UnderwaterPhotography #WildlifePhotography #NaturePhotography #Nature #Wildlife

Badass Steampunk Seahorse
I keep thinking about steampunk underwater worlds… how would that even work?

#promptshare #aiart #Synthography #promptinallt #steampunk

Created with #gemini
Semi-transparent cobalt-blue steampunk seahorse, angled slightly as if swimming toward the viewer from the right, absolutely loaded with mechanical elements: oversized interlocking gears, tiny spinning cogs, winding pipes, articulated pistons, steam vents releasing gentle bubbles, brass filigree, rivets, miniature pressure gauges, clockwork fins, delicate tubing, small turbines along its spine, and a mechanical tail fin. The seahorse wears enormous round steampunk goggles, a dramatic oversized top hat, and multiple clockwork ornaments and tiny hanging chains, exuding a badass, adventurous character. Subtle fluorescent highlights trace its contours. The seahorse glides through sunlit, salty water, bubbles and floating debris drifting around it. In the background, a sprawling coral reef merges into a chaotic steampunk city, partially obscured by swirling currents, sediment, and floating machinery, with tilted copper towers, cracked glass domes, tangled pipes, broken valves, and half-buried ruins, creating an immersive, messy underwater metropolis. Shafts of sunlight filter through, casting a magical but edgy glow. Hyper-detailed textures, harmonious fusion of chaotic steampunk and natural underwater life, ethereal yet gritty atmosphere.

The superdwarf fish comes from the peat swamps of Borneo. The stout infantfish is found on Australia's great barrier reef and Osprey reef in the Coral Sea. And the dwarf pygmy goby is found in brackish and mangrove habitats in southeast Asia. I guess all waters favor small fishes

It doesn't show up in this novel but there is a shark called a silver fin reef shark. This is a shark with metal tipped fins and teeth. Many animals that show up in the world are based on real animals but often with an elemental twist.

Aaaand back to posting artfight stuff. This is the icon I made for myself last year. Was on team seafoam so figured Reef would work well for it.
Don't get to draw water much so was interesting to try

Espresso is the best scopas tang.❤️ Note how he tucks in his fins & speeds up his cruising speed the moment that he realized that I was looking directly at him. 😂 I think my fish get weirded out when I'm looking at them but no food is forthcoming haha.
Two pictures of Espresso, a beautiful scopas tang/surgeonfish, swims through his home. He has a cream coloured face which fades to gold, then dark chocolate, and he has dark brown eyes, with a white scalpal spine at the base of his tail. In this picture his fins are fully comfortably flared. Tangs are herbivorous marine reef fish. Seeing me looking at him, Espresso tucks his dorsal fin to speed up.

🐠 The aquatic resources of the Hawaiian islands
Washington, Govt. print. off.[1905]-06.

[Source]
Illustration of a Heniochus macrolepidotus, a coral reef fish native to Hawaiian waters, shown in natural size. The fish has a laterally compressed body with broad, dark brown and white vertical bands. Its dorsal, pelvic, and tail fins are bright yellow, contrasting with the muted body colors. The fish has a distinctive elongated dorsal fin spine and a curved snout with a prominent eye, highlighting its unique shape and coloration typical of coral reef species. The drawing is detailed and scientifically accurate, focusing on the fish's texture and fin structure for identification.

Small and slender, with a very broad snout, and brilliant white tips on the first dorsal and tail fin; whitetip reef sharks are iconic in reef ecosystems. They can be found in clear, tropical waters throughout the Indian and Pacific oceans, from West Africa to the eastern Pacific.
