Full View Please :D I loved doing this! It went well from beginning to end. I was fed up with trying to do realism, cause thats really not me, so I like the inbetween. I've gone back to the brushes I'm comfortable with, my self made watercolor brushes. References were used.
But I'd love some feedback!

apart from the fact that she looks a tiny bit pregnant [its just the light shadowy reflections you've cast on her] its pretty awesome. i love the colors and the details, and her hand positions and arms look really nicely done. i love the bubbles too they give a nice feeling of being underwater.

well done!

Thank you :D I was trying to give her a slightly muscular stomache, without doing an obvious 6 pack, I assume a mermaid would use those muscles a lot, but your right it looks a little puggy in that one area, oh well nothing wrong with that :aww: Thank you for your feedback :hug:

nah i think its kind of cute.. a preggas mermaid :aww: cute.

but next time you might want to use a stock image for reference..
go to Stock.Exchange they have some wonderful stock.. they do have rules with each image, so just look underneath the picture once you click on one you like.. to see what restrictions are on it.. if it says "standard restrictions, you can do anything you want, basically, to the picture.. which is cool.. but with that site, you can use anything as a reference

good luck and again well done on that pic. ;)

I'll check that site out, the sad thing is I did use a model lol....just a friend, but I suppose if you try to embellish on the body you need more references. I've found a lot of the models on here are really good. Thanks for the tip! :hug:
