Description
Atargatis, in Aramaic βAtarβatah, was a Syrian deity, "the great mistress of the North Syrian lands" Rostovtseff called her, commonly known to the Greeks by a shortened form of the name, Derceto or Derketo and as Dea Syria, "Goddess of Syria", rendered in one word Deasura. She is often now popularly described as the mermaid-goddess, from her fish-bodied appearance at Ascalon and in Diodorus Siculus, and also, as the first mermaid.a OOOOOLD draw for myths & legends... arround a year or more, i done it in very very rush, cause was dropped by other illustrator and the set was near to be on print (i hate deadlines XD)i finish it at time... but i never like the printed version so i took a time for edit this pic and do a new version.

Oh O.O... podrΓas probar con una textura en otro modo (como color dodge, que da brillo) en un layer diferente para ver que tal..., asΓ despues le das la opacidad que no se vea abrasiva ^^
Esop. No me acuerdo quien en la fukk me mencionΓ³ una conferencia a la que fuiste donde los lolos te preguntaban si hacΓas tus propios pinceles y si trabajabas a 600 dpi xD y weas asΓ ahahhahahaha XDDD
ΓA, te mando saludos ^^

Beautiful. I love the way the transition from her human torso to her mermaid tail looks so smooth and natural, and the way her hair fans out in the water. Gorgeous job

Beautiful coloring and brushstroke, but she's anorexic to a disturbing degree. Like she's been in an extremely tight corset her entire life.

I love to see more creative takes on mermaid designs. The many "sharp" fins are just great - I especially like the ones on her head, kinda valkerie-like. Her cold expression is different, too. Very nice.
