Description Wow... it's not usual for me to draw a classic mermaid. I usually go for the sci-fi kind. XD But I dunno, I guess I just felt like drawing this "Little Mermaid" kind of mermaid.

I don't know what she's doing. Fixing her hair or something? I used this for a ref: [link]

Critique and comments very much accepted.

This is by far your best work. Continue with the crisp lines and strong detail in your characters!

Can't think of anything to critique on :/ haha, it's very nice! ^_^ yeah, little mermaid style = good as long as it isn't in the Disney style (sorry, I'm in an anti-disney mood after being forced to watch video after video with my baby brother).

But, yeah, this is really nice! maybe you could make the hair a bit more wet looking or something? I don't know, I just like it <3

virtuoso-pianist-3 [2008-04-01 17:54:23 +0000 UTC]

The composition is very good and the piece is very evocative of mystery. Somehow I cannot discern what she is contemplating on a rock in the middle of the sea. The anantomy is quite good too, as weel as the lineart.

P.S. She really does have a nice body and tush!

harle-appleface [2008-03-30 23:18:46 +0000 UTC]

i love the way you did her tail and hair.
and the background and everything, how full the composition looks.
if i -had- to crit, her left arm position looks a little strange compared to how her back is positioned (HARLE'S VOCAB IS AMAZING REALLY)
but i'm not like an anatomy expert so i'm not sure.

You're probably right. XD; But... I'm no anatomy expert either so I cant really tell how to fix that.
