Drawing - Fifth Attempt - Mermaid

Today, I tried to draw a simple cartoon-style mermaid. I used a book on how to draw mermaids and fairies. I still didn't quite get it right. This was my first try at it. I actually tried again with a second mermaid, but it was worse than the first one!

I have trouble gettng the hands right. Also, I couldn't find any pencils, so I was using a ballpoint pen, so I wasn't able to erase any mistakes. I also made her too big on the page and had to have part of the picture go off the page.



Here is where to buy the book I used (mine was an earlier edition though):
