While I'm going through a weird phase of drawing fan art for Nintendo games I watch my roommate play... He's been playing a lot of Splatoon 3, and I took a liking to one of the character designs.

Of course, being me, the character design I took a liking to isn't some prominent main character, a villain, a boss, an endearing side character or NPC, or anything special... it's a common enemy from one of the side quests.

That's right, a Salmonid. And not even one of the cute ones. The big fat slow one. The Cohock.

Also I gave him a spatula instead of a frying pan because at work I do occasionally have to run the grill, so it seemed fitting.

This was also good practice for drawing fish, something I rarely do, and I liked this guy's design enough to try making some alterations to it so it's unique enough to use as one of my own characters/species in-universe rather than being relegated to "one-off fan character I might role-play with once" status, especially since my universe is lacking in aquatic creatures in general.
