Comment:
My overdue half of a trade with my friend, ~Ellis1342.
She did a beautiful job on Xylia, so I wanted to do the same for her. This is her merman character, Kahdel. I originally had the idea of him playing with an octopus for this piece, but a mild stroke of genius at 3am made me switch over to this concept instead. Also... NEVER. PAINT. CORAL. EVER. I used a brush base, but had to detail it myself. Let's just say the words coming out of my mouth were not rainbows and sunshine. XD; Anyway, I hope you like it Sara, I had a lot of
fun doing an underwater piece after so long! <3
