Description (Prismacolor pencil on sketch paper)

This mermaid was inspired by the geishas of Japan. I thought it would be appropriate to make her tail look like that of a koi fish.

Thank you! This is one of my oldest submissions, and although I've though about doing a revamp, the original gets more favs than all my other work, so I might just leave her the way she is.

Np. You could always just redraw her instead of the whole revamp. In a different pose or something.

Your best flukes on a 'fish' mermaid. You're really showing a lot of improvement in your art, get more confident with your lines and tinting. I very much enjoy your work.

Great job. I like the idea of combining both a geisha and koi for the entire mermaid. Great work on the color too.
