Trying to the proportions and angles right for when she is hanging onto the umbrella I feel in these shots she's a bit stiff looking.
I've struggled with proportion and character design for this project though the bottom half is a fish and could got too many lengths as mermaids are fantasy, it is still hard for me try and draw.
This is one of my favorite character images as she looks more re flowing and sleek.

One Response so far.

  1. Use reference man. I.e - If you're drawing a mermaid, research and collect reference images of human anatomy, fish and even mermaid images to draw inspiration and ideas from. It's so important to use reference always, it's not a bad thing.
