Yep..what bmw said

This is a wonderful start, I hope I get to see it when its finished.

thanks guys, I'll try to finish it soon. I am taking my time on this one though. today is the only day this week that I can spend the whole day on it

Wonderful details and natural colors!!

Beautiful work! The colors/textures are wonderful!

Wow! This is a really great draw.....I love how you did all the detail....especially all those little stones.....and I like the colors. I think the mermaid is a little bit chubby, but I guess she is supposed to look that way. Awesome pic! :)

I agree with Firecracker, the stones are especially well done. The mermaid looks like a real person which is nice for a change. I really like it

Yeah.....you're right.....this mermaid does look like a real person.....I'm not used to seeing that. All the mermaid pics that I've ever seen show "mystical fantasy looking" creatures....but this one really does look real....especially her fin....that looks like a real fishtail on her......and her "pouchy" midsection does make her look like a real person.....most women don't have a flat tummy. I also like her hair.....great draw!! :)

you're right,this mermaid is more like a real person.Not idealized,which is great;wonderful landscape,details,too.
