Practicing my rusty drawing skills

[Mermaidmechanic]

So it's been a while since I've drawn anything and this is what I was thinking to practice my skills:
I'll draw chibi-like pictures of mermaids! All I need is a picture of someone in their tail and I can start. However, in the event that I get too many requests I'm afraid I might get overwhelmed, so here is my solution... I'll draw the first person who posts a pic of themselves in a tail. Then when I finish that one, I'll carry on down the list until I've finished them or I get sick of drawing mermaids @_@. Any takers? It costs you absolutely nothing (except the time it takes to post a pic of you in a tail!). I Just want the practice. :)

I love this! When I make my tail, I might have to get a picture of myself done too. And Hales, that is one cute little goat kid. Makes me homesick for my parent's farm.

[Mermaidmechanic]

Hales, that picture is yours to do whatever you want with. Like I said, I just want the practice :P.

[Dacora]

That's rusty?! No that is awesome! Very nice. :)

[Blondie]

That is TOO cute!

[Mermaidmechanic]

Finally found the time to do this. :P

Bah, I tried some different techniques but looks like I should stick to the way I normally do it. D:

[Taylor is a Mermaid]

AHHH! THAT IS SO AMAZING! I love it, Mermaidmechanic, thank you so much! <3 You'll have to post some mermaid pictures so I can return the favor. ;) Mind if I post this to my Facebook? If not, where should I link to in order to give you credit?

[Mermaid Isabela]

Just so everyone knows: If I've drawn you a mer-chibi its yours to do whatever you want with. I relinquish rights to these drawings as they are not my own characters, just a chibi representation of something that is of your own creation. ALSO! Along with pictures can you also post eye color? It's hard to tell sometimes. :P

[MermaidHyli]

Oh my goodness...those are so adorable! I can't wait to get my tai lto pictures to get a mer-chibi =>

[Mermaid Isabela]

I have brown eyes. :P <3

[Mermaidmechanic]

Sorry it's been taking me a while, I'm on vaca in Florida. I'll complete the mer-chibi for mermaid Isabela, but then after that i'll be discontinuing them in support of people commissioning Little orca for her wedding tails fund.

[MermaidHyli]

Aw :( what if I give money to both? :)

[Little_Orca]

There is always room for more than one artists around here hon. <3 If you enjoy doing the chibi-mers, keep at it. I will not stop you nor be offended. <3

[Mermaidmechanic]

I just thought it would be better for your cause considering I draw mer-chibis free due to boredom. I thought it might diminish the motivation to actually buy a drawing. D:

[Little_Orca]

<3 I appreciate the thought.

[malinghi]

Ha, those drawings are great!

[Mermaid Kalliope]

Awww!!! So cute! ^_^ <3 I'd love to get one from both of you, but sadly I won't have my tail for another 2+ months. x.x And I'm not comfortable giving my design to people. (I've given it to a few, but I don't want it posted on the forum... Not till my tail is done! No stealing! >o< )
