Determined to kill my hand. . .

[luco]

So, after finishing the bookmarks yesterday I started colouring another mermaid picture (you may remember the drawing from a few months ago) and I wanted to show you guys how it looks in-progress, because it's another one with painted water! The clouds will need to be fixed up, and final details added to the water once the rest of the picture is done, but for now, tell me what you think?





I need to finish it for a charity tournament in May. They get a full poster size (and the first print) and then I'm allowed to sell smaller prints after.

But don't worry, the next page(s) of legend are being drawn, as is Plushies. Also, I'm drawing the small plushies for the three bookmarks from yesterday and then Ussop, Chopper and Luffy are getting bookmarks made and then there are a few more mini Crisis Core pics in various sketch phases...

And the Disney Princess Jack picture is almost completely sketched so I'll be able to ink that soon as well...

And I also promised Delmar a new outfit X__x Umm, so I have a lot to do.

Oh thats absolutely gorgeous o.o I would totally buy a print of that. I love how you did the reflections of the light on the water XD It looks almost like a photograph but better o.o :D!!!

Wow, the potential awesomeness is so clear even now. The dragon of night being called by a mermaid is an utterly cool concept.

Gorgeous, gorgeous stuff!
I love seeing it all "in progress" so that I might analyze and steal your methods for my own! MWAH HA HA HA HAAA! (Yeah right, but seriously, it's both helpful and interesting.)
Can't wait to see the finished product!

Oh, my gosh!!! This is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen! I love how you have done to the ocean and the sunset.

It is so beautiful! Keep it up! Can't wait to see finish work!

PS: I have a question for you: is the mermaid summoning the dragon out of the ocean with her flute? Or is the dragon dancing to the music? Don't take it in wrong way! I'm just wonder and curious!!

Wow. I actually said 'holy shit' when I opened the link.

You are so talented!

Maybe it's just my obsession with the ocean, but I really like this.

Oh my that's just gorgoues! The background is really beautiful and I love the pattern for the dragon. It's all so pretty! You're always so detailed ^_^. Sounds like you're having fun wit all your projects, I'm happy for you!

I saw this on your devArt a couple days ago, so I know what it looks like finished, but I don't feel like waiting until I get through my flist to the completed version, so-- holy DAMN, Luco, I think this is my favourite of everything I've ever seen of yours. I don't know, the rainbow dragon with the see-through wings might tie it, but just barely. My heart SKIPS when I look at this picture and I get shivers. Absolutely stunning.
