Hey what if Silly Sea Slug Seahorse?
If I make a whole collection of Bella Sara illustrations, then I should at least have one Hippocampus in my collection, shouldn't I? :D
Based on Cyerce elegans sea slugs, PLEASE look them up online and let yourself be enchanted by them! 🐌✨

Beast Fables: The Many Chimeras of the Horse and other Equids
Returning to the world of Beast Fables, the world of werebeasts and mermaids, another batch of Chimeras, featuring the horse and other equids!
Originally this was meant to be MUCH more extensive, but I had to seperate into more parts saved for later, because the horse is SUCH an important critter IRL, and in-universe the sheer diversity of chimeric morphs for the horse means that the cultural importance and application of them in-universe is going to be extensive as well.

But we're good monsters! Our motives are quite sexual.

The Hippocampus is a highly dimorphic aquatic steed found across temperate and tropical oceans.
While primarily herbivorous, feeding primarily on aquatic plants, the Hippocampus is not adverse to also feeding on hard shelled mollusks and other invertebrates, especially during mating season.
The Hippocampus lives in small family herds, consisting of two stallions and their respective mates. However it is a dominant female that actually maintains the power position in the heard. Males and females are nearly identical however males are larger and posses a club like forearm where females have fins. These modified arms are a formidable and dangerous weapon and are used in defense of the heard. They are capable of such force to completely incapacitate predators.
During mating season stallions will mate and affix the eggs of his brood to his tail. He will be the sole caretaker during this time. The dominant female will be the first and typically mates during the height of spring for optimal feeding for her offspring.

Exploration of colors on the Hipposcampi. I don’t intend on giving them any official markings, but I figured I ought to give them some color either way.
Their hind legs are normally tucked under their tails, hidden unless they are walking on land, hence why they’re depicted without them at all.

I bit of waaayyy more than I could handle with this guy, but after months they're finally finished...
I learned about lighting and skyboxes and made the shader for the fake plastic look and made hair for the first time! I'm really proud of my Blender process for this year!
