    Your skills are quite solid and it shows throughout all of your works... there is one special thing about this mermeaid that caught my eyes right away, how parts of her hair turn to feathers, her tail also makinge this mermaid so mystical.
    Technically this is great... I also love her face... great job toujin1 XD

    As for putting it on ebay... I think you really should ;)

    Wow Sugoi... As always... (I wonder if you ever get tired of hearing this toujin-sensei) If you want to put this to auction... well the one who'll get it will be a really lucky person!!!

    Another great work from toujin1 *aplauds*!!! I think I could recognise a drawing by you from 1000. They are all great and your stile is quite remarcable.

    the shading is very nice in this one, very soft
    the concept is original too, feathers and mermaids? o_0 who knew
    very nice work :) :)

    I agree that the feathers really make it stand out. I dont think i've ever seen feathers on a mermaid. Scales yes, feathers no. A fantastic piece. However, i think she should have more of a defined waist line. you dont define where her hips end and her waist beings. Other then that, i think it looks perfect!

    as for selling it on ebay... I think it would be a good idea to look into making prints of your work. If those sell good, then you can auction off the orginal later.

    Nice drawing touijin-san! For some reason this mermaid reminded me of another one I had seen from you. Her tail is amazingly detailed, you obviously took a lot of work into it, and I love all the little details, like the feathers, those are a very original touch indeed. How they grow from her tail and hair, really nice! I love how her hair moves around and her elegant expression. However I have to agree with scribbleKitty in the waist and hips part and I also think the piece of clothing she is wearing seems a bit stiff in some parts, but I love the foldings ^^ You did a great work touijin-san! Hope uni still lets you some time to keep submitting your wonderful drawings ;)

    Oooh toujin! A mermaid hey <33 <3 She's very beautiful. I like the detail on her tail - holds a lot of motion and matches very well with the ends of her hair. @_@;; Shigh youre so creative.

    Fab original as usual. Luff it!

  15. blackchii Sep 29, 2005

    you done well with the details, but I think you should fix the hands proportion ;)

  16. GintheTwilightswords Sep 30, 2005

    You know, you just always seem to do a fantastic job on these, which makes my work look like chicken stratch, but I'm gonna comment it on it anyway XP . Things mermaid is wonderfully detailed, you can see how defined the feathers and the scales are. The best part of the drawing is the hair, it's just miraculous at how flowing and beautiful it looks, not to mention the vast beauty of the your mermaid herself :). It'sa radiant piece of work, and though I feel you should hold on to it, if you get a nice price for it on ebay, I think you should go for it ;).

  17. bbls Sep 30, 2005

    omigosh...the details in your mermaid are so intricate and i luv the fact that you used feather accents! i also luv the tattoos on her body, and her hair flows around her so beautifully! gorgeous work, toujin1! :D

  18. harakiri Sep 30, 2005

    Well, why do you ask us, just put it on eBay ^^
    Very nice artwork again. I like the details - just for you I will make some more details in my next artwork, too. You inspired me with your detailed artworks and people seem to like details.

  19. shulienne Oct 01, 2005

    hey cool and too bad u won't be around :( i'd love to see more from you.

  20. papyworld Oct 09, 2005

    ^_^ superb too. I'm the #1 fan of your pencil style ^^ i wonder how you can do such great shadings like that on her body and on the stuff she's holding ^_^ that's so greatly done. As the others said, the tail is amazingly detailed. But what stuns me the most is the details on the feathers and how they are placed. It looks so natural ^^. It's like she could be real.
    the hairstyle and the tatoos are also incredible ^_^ you have such a great creativity.
    The sole little thing i have problems with are the arms ... they might be a little short. The belly of the mermaid looks also so real ^^
    it's a really really good work too. And why not starting a mermaid serie on ebay ;) ?
    i hope to see you soon lamice because i already miss you ^_^"

  21. Norimune Oct 11, 2005

    O.O It's sooo great,,, I love the shades on her belly, it makes it look so real, and I love those egiptian looking eyes too. And the feathers *_* really lovely... It reminds me of sakura card captor, the watery card...

  22. ASoubiL Nov 07, 2005

    Oh! a partner for your mermaid! I love it! Now I see what I comment you on the last post [about mermaid's abdomen] It's not a mistake, It's very original I think, Seems to be more realistic.

  23. kaeso Nov 20, 2005

    wow, this one is fraky i think, but it's still as good as the others!
    now that i hae seen a few of ur drawings, i can say clearly that i noticed, yep yep i did on my own, that each of them was a mix of two elements... here water(mermaid) and wind(feathers)
    ok this is crapy but i'm happy
    i have to find a way to make my comment seem like i know what i'm talking about, even though i don't.....
    soooooo good! that's more like me, old kaeso is back!

    love the mermaids, post more, makes me happy, i love mermaids.......
    these are so pictures that u could make a tattoo of.... hum! no bad intentions at all, just what i think

    i have to stop talking too much, i know, but i just can't!

    I wonder is this mermaid real or not? It is like you had seen one before...^-^... your imagination is really great.
