You've got an enviable talent for figures!

I really like your paint work. Captures the look and feel of this mythical creature to a T.

IMHO figures is a very difficult subject to model and paint, particularly feminine figures.

Yeh, well, the original mermaid tales weren't all sweetness & light (nor were the Grimm or Andersen fairy tales, either).

Really well done! :smiley: :smiley:

Agreed, I find I sometimes need to spent a lot of time on the internet to get multiple variations of flesh tones. >:D >:D

Nice work
