Description This is a total repaint of something I did a while back and hated.
Using my new technique of painting in greyscale and then adding color in a new 'overlay' layer.

I like doing it this way because I can smooth out the texture and add details without worrying about muddy colors.

Oh, this is an awesome rendition of Ariel. She's beautiful and the style is unique. I like the more roughened texture. Nice job!

Thanks you very much, polite person.
And I apologize if it looks a little fractured... my internet is doing well at the moment.

You're welcome ^-^ No, it doesn't look fractured. I meant rough in a totally positive and cool way. There is a slightly grainy texture to the whole picture that is a nice contrast to a lot of digital art that is extremely smoothed out and shiny. This is more realistic and pleasant to look at.

Haha. Thanks. 
And sorry, I've just been struggling with my internet since this storm hit. lol. I keep getting fragmented submissions and sometimes the image doesn't even upload. 

Thanks again! ^^
