Calypso, enchantress of the sea
I wanted to explore the use of photo reference with this piece to achieve a more realistic look. I haven't worked with photo reference for a very long time, and I wanted to try it out again. I was happy with the results of the experiment ^___^. I named her Calypso after the ocean goddess in mythology.
This piece is featured in Ballistic's Exotique 3. You can find out more about Exotique 3 here: www.ballisticpublishing.com/bo…

So beautiful!!
The sexiest mermaid I've ever seen))). Or nymph, I don't distinguish them.
really nice shading and coloration!
Aye Calypso the places you've been to,
The things that you've shown us, the stories you tell
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit,
The men who have served you so long and so well
Great dev!
