A two tailed Mermaid from a short story I wrote. I liked her, but some still argue over her two tails vs one... since I've never really seen a mermaid I suppose I'll never know who is right!

I scuba dive and have tried kicking both ways.Maybe it's just because I'm not a mermaid but using both legs as one just makes your upper body move up and down to much. and the speed is about the same...I think. But two legged kicking provides a more stable motion.... Umm anyways..I like the drawing very believable anatomy, and well rendered

:-) Lorah Buchanan replies: "Thank you for your words. The story was fun, but unbelievable without a drawing to go with it."

Very good, and it´s nice to see that even other "Elfwooders" draw "twolegged" mermaids like I do. Because, in my opinion, merfolks are mammals, as clearly can be seen on Your drawing...12

:-) Lorah Buchanan replies: "I created a story to go with her too, just to explain why she had two legs instead of one tail. Thanks for the compliments!"
