Finished coloring it. I dislike the the overlay layer ( aka the background that actually is two layers one set multiply and one set overlay and sort of give Ariel a blue hue on her more. ) So it might change over time till I like it.

I'm not really sure what to say. I added a reflection light since she's under water and light reflects like crazy in certain areas of water from what I observed. Mostly if the water is shallow.

-------------------------------------------
I wanted to do some human practice.. well.. sort of human..

I've always adored Ariel and wanted to draw her for some reason. Everything else I tried to draw looked awful. So I'm stuck with her for now.

I think I'm getting better.. I think. Is her face weird? I think it's weird compared to the rest of her body it's too.. cartoony even though that's what I was aiming for. I tend to go down a realistic route when it comes to the anatomy, but faces, never lol.

Also I tried testing out something with my line art. I wanted it to be even more cartoony and american styled comics like. I freaking love that style. Subtle use of black in the line art or coloring. But I didn't want to over do it especially on a female subject.

This looks cartoony right? I get annoyed if looks anime-ish, I hate anime lol. Her nose could be different as it does look a bit anime ish.. Hellsing-ish almost, lol stupid Mel.

But yeah more fooling around yup. I don't know when I'll do what I have to do, I haven't felt confident enough to do them without feeling they are not good enough for those people. It has to be perfect or else I won't color them, I hate that about my perfectionism, I never get anything done.. > <;
