Looks great, I love her design.
:iconotter-faerie:
I really like the little details, like the pearl strands on her fin and the bright color palette with blue and orange really makes the mermaid stand out.
:iconlatopazora:
thank you :D

yeah, I was going to go with more green color for her, but I'm glad I choose orange

You know, I was going to complain about the size of her eyes, but then biologically I realized that sea creatures have generally larger eyes than there land born counterparts.

nice work Sonya.

Also, I guess the only big critique I could give to you, since I think your character looks fantastic, is that the rocks shes sitting on lack the same "Solid" coloring that the mermaid has. Im of course speaking about the gradient comparison between the two.

Also I am a little confused on the general shading or where the source of light is located in the picture, I would guess that it is Up to the right (her left), and behind her, at about noon ish time I would think, The counter shadows (the ones on the other side, and other parts of the rock) could use a little more darkening.

Over all though, great work, you still do females better than I could hope to in a long time, and your coloring is superb. Nice work.
