Ariel - Preview
Added 2020-05-05 22:21:02 +0000 UTCHey everyone, here's the preview of Ariel!
Just a bit of context before going into detail for this one. I was going to start the month with Iris series, but the idea I had in mind involved 6 drawings (instead of the usual 4), which wouldn't be possible to do all of them for this month.
So the solution I came up with is the following:
- I included 2 more drawings to make it 8-drawing series.
- make 4 as the last images of this month for May rewards
- make the other 4 as the initial images of June rewards.
So this way, there's no interruption in the series =D
Anyway, back on Ariel's drawing. I initially had the idea of having her "come out of the water" (like the classic meme pose), but I figured there's other five thousand images like that, so I decided to make her floating and chilling near the shore, so we can get that nice gradient of sand -> water in the color and have her wavy hair in the water.
And it's also possible to make a "legged" version that also makes sense.
Also, she has freckles, I mean, she's a redhead =D
Anyway, hope you guys like it!

thank you! I think that having the hands running through hair is a very sensual and feminine pose, so I thought it would be and interesting detail to do while floaring around =D. Kinda gives the idea she's just brushing her hair in the water. Also, I think the color palette for this one has a lot of potential. I think the idea of having a gradient on the water color to be more interesting than just having a solid blue =D

2020-05-05 22:31:07 +0000 UTCOh I love this pose! I also really like your idea of having her floating at the edge of the water, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how the colours end up, should have a lovely contrast of tones. As for the pose, the hair looks like it'll be fantastic, spreading out and curling about the place, with the tail curving around the find curling at the ends, the pose looks wonderfully dynamic. I also personally always find these kinds of positions for the arms, raised and with a hand moving through the hair, add an extra bit of grace and sensuality. Having a full view of the face is great too and I do like that her head is turned and leaning slightly, same with the foreshortening added to her right arm, I particularly like the way it creates that overlapping shape with her shoulder wrapped over her bicep. And I can't not notice that the smaller sea she'll bra is a delightfully sexy addition. I actually saw Little Mermaid for the first time two nights ago and I really liked it, Ariel is such a sweet and endearing character 😊 That actually makes me look forward to seeing the finished painting even more! (And the vibrant red hair will be exciting to see too!) Great work! Can't wait to see it finished 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
