This might not be the last version of this image. I was saying on deviantART that I was having a problem with the composition and one of my favourite artists offered to look at it so I couldn't pass up on this and I may end up improving it if I can. But I didn't want to wait any longer to post something here in order to thank you all who voted for me for the AOM and for all the nice messages of encouragement and congratulations I received. Thank you very much, it means a lot to me and also all your support in the last 5 years :) This image was inspired by the art of Michael Parkes who I just discovered and fell in love with :) Credits: Natasza by Mec4D Dress and hat are Gothic Muse by LilFlame on synfulmindz. The skirt part was retextured with Paisly texture by parrotdolphin The mermaid fin is from Water World by ilona Hair, ribbon, glove (with paisly texture again) and background painted by me. Pose started with one of Ilona's but redone by me. I had to repaint the left arm also because it really didn't work after I bent it like that so close to her body in Poser :) Swirl Ice Cream brushes by LightArtist at DA Bubbles brushes by fioletta-stock at DA Chainmail brushes by Nathie at DA Even at 40% of its size, I had to compress the image a lot to fit 512kb, so I hope the resolution is still good...
