Complete - Little Mermaid and Seapony

[Ivy]

Ok a while back I posted some sketches some may remember some not...

One of the favorites was this sketch of Ariel and a Seapony- so I decided that I should finish it off (big accomplishment for me since I rarely take anything past the sketch stage (I have about 40 sketchbooks full of sketches)

Sooo... after much debate I decided to paint it - I haven't painted anything in years and years....

I decided the on Sealight for the sea pony as her colors seemed to go well with Ariel.

and while it's not done yet - still need to add some more detail work - like they eyes, lips etc it's getting there and I have to wait for the paint to dry before I add anymore so I thought I'd post the WIP....

It's going to be a prize at the Michigan Pony meet so some lucky person will get to take it home with them. I'm gonna be sad to let it go though because I am loving the way this is turning out....

Oh you wanna see???





Ok then. This is what it looked like yesterday ..

Today I actually ended up re-painting the sea ponies head - I wasn't quite happy with the way it kind of shrunk in the first attempt.

It still needs a bit of touch up and of course I have to sign it still but here is the new and improved almost complete WIP

This is lovely! You've done a great job. I like the pony's expression. Kudos to you for finishing (well almost) what started as a lovely sketch.
