I can't help but be drawn to her right (our left) hand; its almost skeletal. I likes it.

Rad dude. Only thing I can spot is the way the breast connects to the clavicle and shoulder. I think it might need another plane to flatten it, instead of making it completely meld into the shoulder.

Wow, I totally missed that NSFW warning... I was about to chastise you, then I saw it.

well i didn't add nsfw, someone else must have put it there. i think it's perfectly safe for work, it's art not ****. if i posted a pic of venus de milo up here would it have to gotten that tag? i'm going back to conceptart.org, thanks for the comments sen and dark.

OM NOM NOM NOM NOM. I dig the color scheme, the dimension, and the contrapasto. The only constructive criticism I have is that the lighter color of the hand drags my eye back to the right.

Ans seriously, anyone who considers mermaid **** to be **** is a ****ing **** that can **** the **** off. :beam:

Nice work! :fab:

[danielthelion]

hahaha thanks for seeing things my way man! and thanks for the critique.

It's art, but it's mermaid bosoms, too. If it was venus de milo, anybody walking by my desk would recognize that it's a famous classic sculpture. Someone walking by my desk with this would just see big blue breasts. Not safe for work.

It is very well done, though. Good job :beer:

contrapasto.

My god I haven't heard that word in 3 years, Thanks.
