Description

Giving my markers a quick break from working on commissions to create a quick little sequence.  I've actually drawn this girl before.  As found by :icondod424:, she previously showed up in my take on the 30 days of Monstergirls Challenge here: 30 Days of Monstergirls Day 5: Mermaid by Kathalia

Wanted to try and play around with shading to get her wetsuit's textures properly shiny.  Please let me know what you think!

Arabella Marigold, an experienced scuba diver on a dive near a shipwreck, comes across a magnificent pearl too good to pass up.  But not all is as it seems...

Greetings there again! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>

Good Points:

- I like the oceanic background and I like how you emphasize how the character seems to be swimming in a deep part of an ocean with the dark blue. (Though, there are some light blue to show that whole background is not some screen. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/let…" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="395" title=":P (Lick)"/>)

- I like the shines you added on the swimsuit. Makes it slick and shiny, you know. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>

Improvements/Suggestions:

- I noticed that the fingers are too close together. In real life, fingers are more spread apart. (Thus, making fingers more useful and expressive.) I don't which hand tutorial would work for you so I'm gonna give you a VERY long link to a library full of hand tutorial. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>
www.google.com/search?q=hand+t…:
Yeah, I know. It's very long. It's best to have a variety of tutorials at your disposal. That way, you would have a lot of tips and tricks to draw hands. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>

- Hmm, the hair seems shaggy and is not like real hair. (It almost resembles a porcupine. XD) To save me the trouble of clogging this place, with a long link, here's a single hair tutorial: gold-seven.deviantart.com/art/…

Hope this helps! ^_^
