I was looking through to see what the model could be this month and I came across this Mermaid and thought it looked OK and maybe not too difficult a challenge.

The face and body in the first two pictures are from 350's, I have put a model up made from 260's incase not everyone has 350's to hand to make the model.

Here's my attempt.  I like the idea of the clear base to hold it up.

Here's my mermaid...or rather Cody's mermaid.  It's a slight variation of Unicaw89's (Thanks Cody).  My usual mermaid is Mark Byrne's mermaid hat (Thanks Mark).  Anyway...please forgive the artwork...trying new things.  Hopefully there'll be another artwork class at T & S in Jan.  

 Thanks,

  Michael

Think there must be two pinch twists under the neck bubble but it just didn't look right when I did that.  Will wait and see in instructions.

Here's my mermaid it is based on Cody's design with my tail design as he uses 350 and I don't have any of those (yet)

(The blue model my daughter is holding is a dolphin of her design, which she did about 80% herself including the pinch twist for the eyes.)

I like both little faces (can't see the dolphin...)
