Hehe. She might not look like it, but I like to think of mermaids as dangerous creatures... Beautiful, and lethal. This is my mermaid character, Cyelle, contained in a tank of sorts. (Yeah so help me, I couldn't make it look like a tank... even though I wanted it REALLY subtle...) I was trying to give her a borderline psychotic expression originally, an unfortunate side-effect of captivity, but I toned it down a bit, because she looked a little too weird. Now she's just grinning mysteriously, with her hand against the glass, because she knows she'll be out soon... And when she is, though her time will be brief, she'll make her captors regret it. (Oh, dramatic.) Yay for markers as a base and digital coloring, mwahaha.. I like this one a lot better than my last mermaid piece. I'm quite happy with this, although it's sort of a work in progress. In the future, I'd like to add a more detailed background, including what's outside the tank. This took me a while.. but I think I'm sorta getting the hang of digital coloring, though I still need a lot of work ^^;....

Anyway, :D I hope you like it!

"Yes -- yes, good point, Petunia! What were you doing under our windows, boy?"

Men are a lot like floorboards; lay them right the first time, and you can walk all over them

All mixed together with a dead dog's eye,
Slap it on a butty, ten foot thick,
Then wash it all down with a cup of cold sick".

O_O Ohmahgawd...I'm in love with her design...its so elegant and orginal for a mermaid. Great title and concept, I love her expression. And I agree...mermaids should be considered lethal....kind of like a siren I guess. ^^ hehe Awesome work!

Cool color scheme, I really like the designs on her tail. The positioning og her torso strikes me as quite realistic as well.
