This is an experiment, because I wanted to see a little koi style mermaid. Isn't she lovely? :)
I also wanted to test my new box of color pencils. :p
I had so much fun doing this pic. :D And I´m so proud of that dragonfly. *_*

I think she's lovely too, I love the expression on her face. I applaud on originality, how often do people think about koi mermaids?

Excellen use of complimentary colors, both in the red and green oposites and the black and white oposites. Nice subtle shading on the eyes too. I love the pose too, it's original and displays a great knowledge of anatomy. My one suggestion is to work better on the tail, the spots don't flow well over the scales. You show great attention to detail in other places, so showing a little more on the tail would produce an absolutely stunning result. :) It's a favorite anyway.

Thanks for the advice. :) I had a little problem coloring the scales because I couldn't quite remember how the spots were arranged. :P Maybe I'll go by the pond tomorrow and pay a little more attention to that detail.

Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault. :nod:

Nah, I prefer the real thing. It gives me a strange feeling of awe when I see the shapes and the colors in motion.
