This is another great work I love the pastel colours with the whole work it gives a bit this illustrative feel like if it would be from some book. You have good style for that!
I like the design of the character and also the colours for the background and the octopus as well, perfectly stands together into a larger illustration! )

Thanks a lot for your very kind compliments ! It makes me very happy ! My aunt told me I could do illustrations for books and this made me very glad. I'd love to do that by the way. Maybe one day. ^-^
This drawing took me quite a lot of time, particularly the tentacles. I hope to have a good place in the ranking.

Well... humans are everywhere on the Earth. Humans are real, but what about elves, nagas, cecaelias, demons, angels, etc ? Maybe they exist, but not on our planet. Such humanoids fascinate me. I love to live in my imaginary world, where I can escape from the real world and forget all my little problems. Moreover, these humanoids are way more interesting to draw than humans. At least for me. ^-^

I'm with you! ^^ Fantasy is more fun then reality, but as I like to say what is reality? (i got that from the show perception It's awesome!)

Indeed. We live in the real world, as we call it, and artists represent things that sometimes are not supposed to exist in this real world, but that's also possible these creatures artists paint, draw also exist somewhere else in the universe. And maybe among these creatures, artists paint or draw us, humans from the real world.
I always loved to think that way and also truly believe in the existence of other living beings.
I'm sorry, I've noticed I talk a lot these days.

Aww, that's a really interesting story! I enjoyed it like a real fairytale ^^
I find his semi-octopus shape very beautiful, also I love the waist jewellery, he's one of a few creatures who'd be able to wear such a thing around the waist without it falling off, he has sort of like a natural skirt which I find very adorable ^^
I really love the lower curve of his chest, it almost feels like he either has a feminine breast or a more sucked-in stomach, and either way I admire it a lot! It's very sexy and beautiful! And the lower belly is wonderful as well, it's so smooth and round! But of course without looking fat or anything like that. It really shows that he lived his whole life underwater with such nice beautiful curves!
And these tentacle antennas are a really interesting addition and one of my favourites in this drawing, I've never seen anything like that before but find it very beautiful ^-^

Aww ~ Thank you so much ! :3
I'm really happy to know you enjoyed both the illustration and the story.
I had not a nice day today so your compliments really make it brighter ! Thank you !
Yes, a cecaelia can wear such jewels around the waist without making it fall. It is made with corals, shells and little pearls from oysters. It would cost a lot in the human world. ^-^
I enjoyed a lot doing the tentacles even though it was veeery long to draw and colour.
I want to thank you again for your very kind comment ! It truly made me very happy !

Oui oui, tu es bien la première à commenter. ^-^ Et je te remercie beaucoup pour tes gentils compliments ! Les gens mettent en fav mais ne me disent pas ce qu'ils pensent de mon travail. Dommage.
J'ai fait le line à Paint Tool Sai et la colo à Photoshop CS4.
