    @ Sashagorec: Haha! I LOVE your voluptuous mermaid! How saucy!



    Here's a quick doodle I did this morning, not sure if I'll have the time to finish this drawing jam but it's a cool one.

      @JUDE - pretty start! I love the colors. Will we get to see more or is this the composition?

      @Leion - I am digging the crab concept as well. I look the squid one next to it, but I get the feeling we have seen that before. The crab is cool.

      @Gaslamp - really nice; I love the composition and colors. It's really making this dynamic. Great!

      @TwistedKitty - THAT is badass.

      @sashagorec - This is going to be amazing when it's done!

              Thanks for the little support guys.

              I see the crab concept is more favored so here's some of them.
              I have alotta thoughts now like:
              Deciding where i use the original centaur crab mermaid or fuse the woman with a crab.
              Plus,wether to use a normal crab concept or a eremit crab.

              And the face: should it be soft like a octopus skin or 'crunchy' like a crab?
              BTW here's some deeper concepts and another i had in mind: a scylla like mermaid with dolphin heads, below :

                Default Little mermaid


                Hi Guys!

                This is my first Draw Jam - which I really hope doesn't make me fail my finals, but I can't refuse this one.

                I'd love to do a Nouveau illustration of the little mermaid (Anderson's version) in human form. I hope that's not stretching the topic too much. I will be putting in plenty of mermaid-y things to strongly hint at her true form. Here's what I have so far.

                  @ Melaniey: I really like your concept design so far for your mermaid. It matches the Nouveau style very well. There's a nice narrative with the two elements blending together, however be careful of tangents with your line art. Mainly in the area where the woman's hair and sleeve meet with the mermaid's tail and hair. That can be a bit distracting. Otherwise, it's a wonderful start.

                    @Leion--well what you could do (and I promise that I won't use this in my own)..is have a human-like appearance with fish-scale-like skin. It would be a mix of the two...just an idea.
                    You can also look at movies like the Ray HarryHausen version '80s version of "Clash of the Titans" (not the new one...) and the 2nd "Pirates of the Caribbean"
                    movie for ideas on how to combine human features and give them fish-like characteristics.

                    Just an idea...

                      Default Evil mermaid


                      Hola,

                      it's a good start of this DJ.
                      I like mermaids, so I decided ti join in.
                      I made a quickie. It will need a lot of repair, but I'm satisfied with it for the time being. My mermaid is a classic one, it's pretty and EVIL . Hope you like it!

                          havent done one of these in a long while. i finally have time.
                          here is my start. i am going for a collector. i guess the disney version of the mermaid was the same thing. just exploring and scavenging goods. cept this one she wears what she likes and can.
