More from Fio
I drew this while I was watching "Die Hard 2: Die Harder" - I didn't really like it that much, but I quite like her. I'm happy with the color scheme for a change (usually I draw a nice picture and then destroy it with my horrible choice of markers) - she actually came out out okay!
I used some pearlescent paint to add sheen to the shell and her lower body, but unfortunately the scanner hasn't picked them up very well, and the subtle silvered areas just look like big globs of grey. In person she's much prettier.
Plug, plug, sell, sell - because artists can't survive on compliments alone. The original is up for grabs here:

Although I have no basis for comparison, I find the hues attractively subtle, here, especially the colours of her caudal fins. I think they look very good, Ms Fio!

Would you by any chance have Photoshop, or any other software that would allow you to reduce an image with bicubic resampling?
Sometimes -- not always, but sometimes -- subtle colour effects can be salvaged if you create a huge scan, and then reduce it by half with bicubic resampling (and with constrained proportions)... and then reduce it again if you have to, until it fits within the file size and dimensional limits of an FA submission.
(You should never reduce it by *more* than half at any given reduction, because this can create blocks or bands of "interference" on the image. And it's best not to reduce jpegs, because they are compressed files that lose data every time you alter and save them; I find it best to scan files and to alter them as uncompressed Photoshop images, and then to save the final image as a jpeg.)
If you know all of this already, then I apologize for lecturing!

*starts breathing again* words don't express on my part how gorgeous it is.
added to that is i insta-faved, and i hardly ever FAV. and darn fate for me not having money. >;.;< I guess i'll have to mark this and get a print of it later :/
but HOMG gorgeous, i love every part of it <3

You'd be surprised to see what I play while I'm drawing gals in their panties and all the other cutesy femme art I post. Kill Bill, Sin City, and the Lord of the Rings trilogy are regular company while I work, but then again, so are cheesey romantic comedies, Moneky magic and GTO. ^_^'
