Graphite pencil sketch on paper. Just a mermaid with her merman. I love how the anatomy worked out for the merman and I admit the female's "chest" may be a bit too big now that i looked at it, but they both turned out really well. The scales took forever!

this is really good I just dont like the girl's abbs they seem a little wierd somehow

:-) John-Clayton Wilson replies: "Ya I see that her abs are a little weird. Huh. I'm coloring this pic with Photoshop(which currently isn't working for me right now) so I'll change the abs a bit. Thanks for the critique."

This is a great job on the merpeople. The scales are excellent. I wouldn't have the patience to make all them tiny scales. I have three Mermen in my gallery and believe me their scales are nothing like yours. Excellent!!

Are they married?

16 John-Clayton Wilson replies: "You know, I'm not sure. Maybe they are. I wonder if merpeople have marriages like humans do?? Hmmmmmm...."

Two beautifully designed characters! I love the body proportions and those scales are absolutely perfect - they lend such interest to the characters. I'm looking forward to seeing them coloured.

1 John-Clayton Wilson replies: "Thank you. I started coloring them in Photoshop but it's down for me right now. So I'm going to color them with pencil crayon soon. I have a lot more colored pics coming in the ticket line(not far now) if you're interested in stopping by again. I appreciate your comments!!"
