Commission for !
I like to think of this as an alternate telling of The Little Mermaid; one in which the sea-witch Ursula hears Ariel's wish to be with Prince Eric and grants it without asking for anything in return... but with her own twist upon things! Ariel is left as a mermaid, and it is Eric who feels Ursula's magic instead, being shrunken to miniscule proportions.
It's not what Ariel had wished for at all. But... something about seeing her prince, small enough to eat... and upon further investigation, he really is pretty tasty...
This was a fun project to work on! More time-consuming than I had imagined it would be, and a completely different style than I usually do (I ended up partially replicating Disney's style on this one), but I love the results.
I probably won't be doing any more drawing commissions for a little while - gotta recover from this one, and practice my speed a bit - but it's a nice to know I can do it!

It is quite interesting to see something drawn and colored by you-- I remember saying something similar when you drew Teena and Mukat, but it still remains a delightful surprise.
The style of the art in The Little Mermaid is perfectly captured, the background and the transparency at the top of Ariel's tail, the lighting on the water are very nicely done. And just that little drip of saliva from her tongue onto her breast is such a nice touch. Eric might not like where he's ending up, but I think I and your other viewers might gladly take his place here. ^^

It's a bit of a bummer that the Mukat-and-Teena painting project kinda fell through, but I've gotten a lot better at lineart now... it's probably something I'll revisit later!
Really glad to hear you like it! And yes, poor Eric is going to become a part of her world, like it or not...

Lol good one! He may not like being part of her world but I bet most of us sure would. ;)

Oh, god, you did not just make that pun... XD
I mean, stuff like that happens, so no biggie. I have more than a few half-finished pieces I need to finish of my own, so... yeah. ^^;

This awesome!
Very well done!
I agree with Mukat too that it's a nice touch with the saliva dripping off her tongue and onto her breast.
Thank you so much!! You're better than you think you are. :) You really DID nail the Disney style.
