Description Ugh.... I liked the lineart better. Again... But oh well, this is my first peice in like... months, so I won't diss it too much. Took about 3 hours to color the stinking thing in. The marine life is a bit pathetic.... but oh well, haha. And the flowers are supposed to be clear-ish.... almost transparent, sorta like foggy jellyfish... uhh... no references used. <<

Maybe her tail is a little bit thick.... sigh.. Child-bearing hips... except she'd probably hatch eggs.... >> Not a line of thought that I especially want to follow.

I need to practice backgrounds, and coloring in general. Seriously. o_o At least I improved even after months of not using photoshop or my tablet.

And the coloring in was pretty roughly done, considering how long it took...

Meh....

I like how you did her bangs. The stark transition from her torso to her tail suggests the look of a fish swallowing her Great job, though, on all the translucent fins and fully webbed fingers. The way you have the webbing trailing off her pinkies to her wrists looks cool!

thanks ^_^ The 'fish eating her up' thing actually occured to me too. I had to fight off an urge to draw eyes on her fish tail xD

You have a really good sense with proportions and the face is animated but realistic <3

Can't wait to see the challenge I gave you

in medieval times, wide hips were a sign that she could lay eggs easier....

and this wins the male fanbase over.

and this is AWESOME colouring!!!!!!!!! i hope to one day have your talent if only an iota.
