Description
Original characters belonging to myself (Harmony - the mermaid) and ~Gloriantes (Jadon, the human). We both wanted to draw these two and what started as a simple doodle for her ended up being a fully coloured piece.
I had fun colouring this. X3 Most of all Jadon breaking through the water. I may see if I can make it a print, so long as I get permission from Jess since her character is in it.
Um...yeah...they're lil' teen sweethearts too.

Ha ha! They're really cute, and I love the detail you did on the tail. Nice job adding the scales to give it a bit of texture, and I love how you have the bubbles as he's breaking through the water.
The fish are amusing too. Their expressions make me laugh.

Eep. I thought Jadon was a girl until I saw the comments that refer to him as a guy. *facepalm*
This is cool - I like the eyes and the bubbles and the cute little jellyfish *huggles them and is electrocuted*

This drawing is amazing, beautiful and perfect. I love it but I don't favourite artworks with visible watermarks.

Unfortunately, due to the amount of people that do rip off my artwork to use for themselves/profits ect, I need to have a watermark like that (even then, they still will scrub them out if they're that intent on using it).

I know but noticeable watermarks destroy the works.

That's why I prefer showing my art IRL - people can see it for what it really is - traditonal art never really looks that great when scanned in, as it can never fully live up to what it's really like. It's just the internet anyways, so I'm not that fussed. X3

Yes. I know most of the times it is difficult to get fidelity scanning a painting or a picture. I usually scan my nudes from the original film.

This piece is so adorable. Really, I could probably puke kittens it's that cute. But I really love the expressions on the face.

Ohhh, for a second, I thought it said DRIVING for Mermaids and I was like "Hmm... You know, I guess it would be a hassle to drive for mermaids... they're all... legless, and probably whining about not being in water..."
BUT it's not ^_~ it's cute so I enjoy~

And the looks on the faces of those two fish off to the side.
Fishie 1: What the...?
Fishie 2: Hmm? *glance* Weird.
Fishie 1: Have you ever had a worm?
Fishie 2: No. Does it taste like a free-range chicken?

I love the goldfishes' expressions. The water effects and colouring are as usual; great, but I really do find the expressions a nice touch.

I love the scales on her tail -- actually Harmony in general!
I would love to see some more of her!

I love how detailed it is! How Jadon's white shirt is see-through along the arms, the explosion of bubbles as he breaks the surface, and the scales on Harmony's tail--all serve to make it quite a lovely picture. -^_^- I love how you coloured Harmony's eye, too, and the tiny finny bit on her arm.
