Mermaid for ~asrafrate

The little mermaid story, obviously. Although not the Disney version, the Hans Christian Andersen version, in which they're a little wilder and more ethereal, and she dissolves into foam at the end.

This was quite fun, I played with very washed out paint for the water and foam, it needs less blending after.
The tail is metallic paint, the hair is a mix. The eyes were annoying.

Quite similar to this old sketch n style, but - while I considered colouring - I felt I wanted to do something with more feeling, more life...

ArtRage 2.5 and tablet
four hours

Edit: 16/07/08 Fixed the hand and arm, added fins along arm, altered hair so it rises clear of the spray, tiny edits on face, signed

EDIT: 13/6/09
Repainted the face, which bugged me sooooooo much.

She does look like part of the wave. I love the greeny blues.

Awesome colours and flow, although her face looks a bit weird. Although, it certainly fits with the abstract style of the painting.
And, completely unrelated, how do you get that bar in your artists' comments?
