Hm. This is a good learning piece for me, I can see a lot of problems to work through. My perspective is super-duper wonky, so I'll be more attentive in my sketching stage (not to mention studying up!). I've gotta kill the habit of outlining with watercolors, it flattens things in a not good way (or be intentional about it). I need to be more decisive in lighting, and study real life for accuracy. Those are some things I'm going to focus on next.

I just want to take a moment to tell you all- YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING! This thread is filled with so many beautiful and inspiring mer-illustrations. Give yourselves a pat on your back.

[LayalIdriss]

Yey! My first post is a Merm!!

[Stephanie Hider]

So much fun looking at all the entries! I did not find out about #mermay until your newsletter so too late to join it but wanted to participate in this. She is for another project, isn't painted yet but I am afraid if I wait too long will be too late so adding her now in her rough sketch pre render stage. Hope you guys do more of these.
