Description
I finally got another image out after being MIA for a while. This one started from me messing around in Paint Tool Sai with some lineart. Lineart came out pretty decent but the painting came out like crap. I'm not used to Sais blendy brushes but since I liked the lineart I decided to import into photoshop and paint it in there! I think it came out pretty good considering I'm somewhat out of practice. Haven't cracked open an art book in a while....Anyways, leave a comment! I'm interested to know what you guys think of it!

I like the tattoos and the colour scheme. Gives quite a unique perspective on the merpeople.

I never really thought about it from that aspect but true!

A lot of folk do the lineart only in Sai and transfer it to a different program to paint.

Absolutely. You can work with the lines so much better than with many programs and several of the artists I watch use it purely for that. XD
I keep forgetting what kind of painting Sai is supposed to be imitating. Is it supposed to be watercolor like? Always found that medium hard to control.

Agreed. Sai is now my preferred program for doing lineart. I'd like to get better at using Sai to paint though just to keep from having to hop between programs.
The acrylics brush (aka water color) is probably it. I tried to paint and the blending just got out of control lol. Though to be fair to Sai, water color in traditional is also hard to control.

That'd make things easier. 
It's such a good feeling when you can finally make it do what you want though. Fighting with Sai is probably going to be so worth it.
