Description
Well a wip here... Since it's my first time drawing a mermaid, struggling with colors... At first, I wanted to make the hair multi-color but didnt look really good, blue didnt really stand out. I use aquamarine eyes for most of my drawings but it didn't work quite well this time. Tried red eyes and failed. Honestly? i dont like the current hair colorSoo it's likely ill change all the colors later. Mermaid is a tricky creature to color..
btw she's not a mermaid but some sea-creature. She's too fishy to be a mermaid. lol
finished drawing c; ~~~

I actually really like the colours, or at least the values that you have going on - I'd suggest that you keep the hair bright, at least! With the eyes, she looks a bit wall-eyed/thousand yard stare to me. I read somewhere that it's always better to have them a little cross-eyed to give the illusion that they're focusing on the viewer.

beautiful of course! but may i humbly suggest the hair colors more like what you did on your Rainbow Sea Elf piece? i can imagine the hair for this WIP as more silvery, with some colors of the ear fins (the dark blue green and aqua blue) as streaks in the hair. I believe you should change the hair first, then decide what eye color works best with the new hair. as always, i am stunned by the beauty of your work.

She's so pretty
Personally I really like her hair, I think it works well. But that's just me.
Her eyes are gorgeous, btw
I still don't understand how you manage to do things so perfectly. *Tackle hugs you* EVERYTHING YOU DRAW IS GORGEOUS.

She looks stunning, I personally love the color choices. (Maybe aquamarine for the hair and purple eyes would look great?)
