This is the fourth of the eight prints I had made for Arlingtoncon back in October. It's the followup to the previous print - [link] .

Assuming that you've read the description for Sand Eel you'll remember that Sasuke, at the end of Dogmatix's fanfic, was turned into a mer by Naruto's kiss as he lay dying. Well, it wasn't so much the kiss as it was Kyuubi's power pouring into him to cause the transformation. This was one of Dogmatix's three prints illustrating her story and I thought certainly Sasuke needed to be depicted as a mer, especially if he was to play a major role in the brainstormed sequel.
Now his tail was directly designed from Naruto's tail, from spine dorsal to feathered tips of the fins. Dogmatix gave me the colors for the scales, which I think came out rather well. As for Sasuke's skin color, the blame goes to Dogmatix again because I based this on the print of the ill-fated kiss. Tone for tone, this is Sasuke's skin color. Of course she later explained he was only this color because he was dying, but what the hell...it rather looks striking with his dark hair and tail, doesn't it?

There's a third mer print that accompanies this one, though doesn't exactly link with the previous Gaara-mer at all. That'll be explained in full detail.
