Named and suggested by :iconconan-san:. The last project from www.livestream.com/kittyocean. Don't know what the next project will be; might take 2 weeks off or so. Pen-i's will still be done through Livestream, btw. Just no new project.

Anyway, this is Naraku, as a mermaid. She was supposed to become a mermaid in book 6, but it seemed so random and far fetched, I dropped the idea. I used this Livestream for practising the upper arms and lineless skin-shading. Plus, a tail is new as well.

Sand was done with texturiser, because I have no idea how to do that manually. If you do, please let me know. Oh, and please also let me know how to do rocks. Couldn't figure that out.

Conan-san and I debated if I should or should not add sea-life. My mom said the same Conan-san said: it would distract too much. I did add the little sea star, because it simply seems so out of place. I love that little star.

Anyway, this was practise, but it's also an offical print and all. So, still no stealing, please/ s'il vous plait/ bitte/ alstublieft :) .

Really pretty there. :D Quite fine hair and nice coloring on the tail. :D

Hmm, the arms seem tad too thick compared to her face and body. That might be your only issue right now. :)

Well, it was not the easiest pose XD I have to admit the arms are a bit thick. My excuse is that she is very muscled due to lotsa swimming XP

Okay, that excuse is good enough. :XD: But it's actually the shoulders and chests that are quite musclar from swimming. :XD: But won't worry about it. :) You still did a great work there. :)

Thanks =D I know I made lotsa mistakes; it's part of the reason why I decided to livestream - to get more practise. I'm quite proud of the 'scales' on the tail.

BTW, what do Gold and Kalua think? And Akosmia, Energia, Pragma?

Glad to be of a help and even I still make mistakes from time to time. :XD:

Gold: "..........."
Kalua: :giggle:

Akosmia: "How pretty, I like purple color."
Energeia: "Pretty!"

Pragma: "you certainly have an artistic taste..." then blah blah blah about use of colors, positioning and bit of issues.
