Merrow V3. This version of the "Merrow" is special, because the way the leather resisted the base black alcohol dye created a happy accident, resulting in a mottled appearance. It reminded me of a catfish or a muddy spotted koi, so I accented the darker scales with metallic teal, the lighter areas with pale copper, and added just a bit of teal to the ends of the swirled seaweedy mane. It is definitely one of a kind, and something I'll be unable to repeat. In the shop here: [link]
So that dye usually works just fine, but the leather was being ornery? Too bad, because that really is an awesome look, especially for this design. Would probably look pretty cool on a dragon design, too.
