Description
Go on, give it a full view! Here it is! At long last! My end of the art trade I have going on with my incredibly good friend !
I knew I had to incorporate Ariel (his favorite) in somehow but the burlesque theme came to me in my sleep (like all great ideas do!
). Maybe it was a bit of an excuse to come up with purple shell pasties. Seriously though, I'm very happy with how she turned out especially when it came to her hair. I wanted to make it a little bit classic Disney with equal parts 1950's burlesque/pin-up girl. I'm not gonna lie, coloring the inside of that shell with a tempermental Copic marker was a bit of an annoyance but I'm just happy it all managed to come together.
Hmm, between this and my "Tail Spinn'd" Miss Kitty Mouse from "The Great Mouse Detective", I might just have to start some Disney!Burlesque mini-series.
Oh, and just in case...
DISCLAIMER: "The Little Mermaid" and its characters belong to Hans Christian Anderson. This incarnation in particular belongs to Disney.

Very lovely job! And I like how you put a creative spin on it (you should do a Disney Burlesque series)! (^^)

THIS IS FANTASTIC
i think the marker effect on the inside of the shell kind of makes it look more textured and swirly pearly smooth, like shells are
and ofcourse
DONT THINK THOSE DINGLEHOPPER EARRINGS ESCAPED MY NOTICE!!!
GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hee, I was wondering when you were gonna pick up on the dinglehopper earrings. 
I can definitely see what you mean about the texture inside the shell. It gives it a whole new spin.
Anyways, I'm really happy you liked it Joe!
