...you will find.... this guy! boo! don't worry though, he's just a curious merman. I painted him because realised it was kind of blasphemous, me having been crazy about merfolk since I was a tiny tot, that I'd never actually painted one! o.o so I set out to fix that.

I used a few custom brushes for this, but they're ones that I created myself - one for the scales, and one for the reflective light in the water. I'll upload them if people are interested :)

Oh and PLEASE fullview, it's worth it I promise :)

EDIT: In case anybody wants it, I will make a print available of this
