After my last background test, I wanted to try making a short animated comic scene. Just a short, random scene from the daily lives of my shark characters! 🦈✨ Which one are you? Tiago, who's always reminding his friends... or Roberto, who always forgets things?

This is the full artwork for the third background concept experiment, drawing over the 3D model. This would be the Blue Lobby, the entrance to the Cerulean Tower of the Seven Waves residential, the home of my sharkfolk. 🏢🦈

For this scene, I improvised by filling it with several other residents instead of just Tiago and Roberto alone. I tried to portray that in this universe there are no 'maintenance services', the residents themselves take care of the upkeep of the residential complex, a kind of ancient tradition.

A large concept illustration of the background of the "Blue Lobby," the entrance to the Cerulean Tower of the Seven Waves residential complex, home to my sharkfolk characters.

Roberto (The great hammerhead shark) and Tiago (the tiger shark) are in the center, on a winding walkway that passes over a circular reflecting pool with tropical gardens and a replica of an antique vase on display.

The environment has an architecture reminiscent of the 1950s, with cylindrical columns, rounded shapes, and cobogó (a type of perforated brick). There are several other resident sharkfolk such as: A lemon and Caribbean sharkfolk cleaning a glass door; two small Leopard sharkfolk maintaining the tiles of one of the columns; a Nurse sharkfolk cleaning the floor with a spinning mop while wearing headphones; a Whale and Caribbean sharkfolk descending a ramp that probably leads to an underground parking lot; there is a mother silky sharkfolk pushing a shopping cart while her son holds a juice bottle; There are two small leopard sharkfolk tending to a section of the garden; a hammerhead and mako sharkfolk are conversing inside the hall inner, and finally, there are a silky and nurse sharkfolk chatting upstairs.

my take on Death Tarot card ✨🦈 At the end of life Death gently guides the shark kind towards the stars. He keeps them company, shares wisdoms, and, when they are ready, guides them to be reborn for a new adventure. Some choose to become a constellation and guide other adventurers on their path ✨

my take on death tarot card :)

This Saturday I lost a friend, and today is his birthday. He was a dear friend whom I saw every day in our group of friends. He once told me that thanks to me, he began to see sharks in a much deeper way and said that the blue shark was his favorite.

I revisited an old design I made to illustrate my artistic name 'Requinoesis'. The old idea was related to two fictional mythological figures I created for Sharkfolk story. Now, it's also the name of a fictional state of mind present in the story. 🦈✨

I finally found a little time to finish this other background design test, draw over on a 3D model. This place would be the "Blue Lobby", the entrance to the Cerulean Tower of Seven Waves, the home of my sharkfolk characters. ✨🏢🦈

Full artwork from the second background test I did, drawing over the 3D model I made of my Sharkfolk characters' home. In this one, I was able to experiment with interior lighting! I didn't have many ideas about what kind of dialogue to include, so I thought of this simples and silly interaction.
