SciFi and Fantasy Art: Hippocampus

I am quite proud of my hippocampus =) I know they dont have back legs but I thought I'd be a bit daring and try something different ;).

It looks great, hope you don't mind me saying,if you coloured gradient style, that is colour the body in
working from dark on the outsides and getting lighter
till the center the creature will look more 3d or stick
out more, also I must agree on the foreground, use corals
and seaweeds, fish and perhaps some bubbles. Still great pic.

It's a great picture but there is one thing which is not right. The Hippocampus is a fabulous horse of the greek Mythology, Neptun's coach is pulled by two Hippokampi, they don't look like horses! Hippokampi don't have four legs, they have a tail fin instead of the two hind legs.
PS I like the colouring.

*doing the 8th comment dance, hey, why not?* I love it! No reason hippocampi can't have back legs. The fins on them kind of have the 'holly leaf' look, though, the problem with making that sort of fin green. Your detail with the scales is great. Try putting some shading on it next time.

I like the idea of changing the concepts too... I'll grow some of these in my world, if you don't mind teehee... But they do look like watangs - an aquatic sort of horse someone on the woods have created, check it in http://www.geocities.com/dragonneklaw/

Anyway this pic is awesome!

It looks very nice.

Ryoko- it is spelled Vaporeon, if that is the one you were thinking of.
