I didn't realize how long it'd been since I finished a new personal piece! I'm hoping to get a few more finished up soon. I have so many rough drafts but I never get the chance to finish them. X)
It might not be a good idea to take that treasure, Mr. Fisherman. Mermaids can be tricksy.
Edit: I had a few comments about the color, but after trying out an updated version with darker/greener water, it just wasn't working for me, so I switched it back to the original version with a few minor updates. Sorry to keep swapping files back and forth!
I'm amazed I haven't seen your updated version, but I kinda like the light glow of the water, it makes perfect sense given the abundant treasure they seem to have kept underneath. The expression on the fishermans face is priceless. ^^ I also very much like the very long and strong looking tails of the mermaids, they give them an aura of strength and primordial-ness. Which I would expect from mythical creatures of the deep!
