Using the material to synthesize the dream-lifelike underwater male mermaid

Creative Thinking

About the mermaid has countless strange and beautiful legends and myths, Mermaid legends countless, she has become a fairy tale, a totem is remembered by the world. But the mermaid did not enter anyone's sight, she lived in our imagination and the story, which also gave me a greater creative space. I use this as the theme to express the Mermaid Song and their poignant love.

Later added blisters, fish and underwater reefs, strengthen the space sense of the picture, foil the characters in the water swimming feeling.
