As with another one or two of my recent submissions, I was aided with an anatomy book when I drew this.

I do believe that the face turned out very nicely.

And for once I actually used a pen to go over the lines. Turned out very well, methinks.

Those marks on her cheeks, I know they look like gills. I couldn't think of a way to draw skin markings of that shape without making them look like gills. If you have a suggestion, please, let me know.
