Description

I like it. :D

This is a collab between :iconriku-aelitonnes: and I. We were in pchat, and I drew the fishy on top, and she drew the fishy on the bottom, and then she drew a stick figure of the guy. I really liked how the picture was turning out, but i wanted to draw it in my sketchbook because I'm much better at traditional then at CG (plus, i needed more pics in my sketch book, lol). So, I asked Aelitonnes if I could redraw her mermaid in my book, and she said sure. Originally, her mermaid didn't have scales, those fins on the back/butt and side, and that fancy stuff on the tail. I added those, because I had that on my character and I wanted them to look similar. I hope you don't mine, D!

With the scales, I was experimenting on how to make them look fish like... It took me at least four hours (over the span of three days) to do them on both mermaids. But I like the texture of it. :D Some of the shading didn't come out on the bottom mermaid, which is why some of it looks flat, which I am very sorry for. I darkened the shading now, but scanning this picture so that it looked nice was such a pain in the ass, I'm not gunna bother rescanning it.

BY THE WAY: That's a dagger my character is carrying, but I purposely concealed it. There is a story behind the picture that I made up while redrawing it all! Sort of... The boy swam a bit too deep into the ocean. Two mermaids found him. They're evil mermaids, but very pretty. They're sort of like Sirens. Hehe... Fun. :D

Ok, i've talked long enough. Enjoy. :D

ONE MORE BTW:
This picture was brightened, contrasted, some darker shading, and... Brightened, so that it would look nice. Yay!

Should this be Matured because of the girl's not wearing a top?

I love their exotic looking fins!  They'd look great with webbed fingers, too!!
