Description
This is a gift to my uncle to make him feel better (he has cancer and is going through chemo now, so this is just something he can smile about)The mermaid is something personal between me, my aunt and him. It's kind of an inside "joke" in a way, so yeah. This is for him. I'm making a frame for it as well with shells and what not.
Just finished this one a week or so ago.
Colored pencil - Prismacolor
(positioning is from a victoria secret ad, I needed a body. lol)

great composition! I love the use of light and dark values on her skin which contrasts so well with the bright colors in the bg and on her tail and bra-top!

I just use them for their bodies. haha. I find positions I like and use them... apparently though, that ad is a very popular one. lol... I've seen some other drawings using that one. hehe.

I love this pose! Great job on the shading. The little aquatic touches like the hint of scales on her shoulders and her finned ear are nice...especially the ear!

You should pick out another sexy Victorias Secret pose, only show a full-body shot of your exotic mermaid this time. Along with her exotic finned ears, you could add other fancy fins on her arms and tail, and web her fingers!

I love your work though, I still think you should do stuff in pen and ink though... I think with your style you'd be the bomb with pen and ink...
don't compare yourself with other's work, you have your own unique style, if you had work like everyone else then it would be boring... so keep happy.

Thank you! I'm glad you like it. hehe. My uncle is pretty good, they tested his spinal fluid and found no traces of the cancer... so that's good, though he still needs to finish off his year of chemotherapy. So yeah. ^-^; hehe Thank you very much.
