Aquatic
First off, my apologies to anyone who clicked on the above thumb thinking there would be some hot mermaid fanservice. I swear I didn’t try to make the thumbnail misleading (of course I’m lying). So, for those of you who don’t know, this is Major Alex Louis Armstrong, “The Strong Arm Alchemist,” from Full Metal Alchemist. I have no idea why I chose this idea for the theme, but I was extremely ambivalent about the whole thing. On the one hand, it was pretty interesting and new (stylistically), and on the other hand, I was completely crying on the inside. At one point, I was so amazed at the rippling muscles that I actually dropped my stylus in shock, and had to look under my chair for it T__T. I was going to add a little Al-submarine, but I couldn’t bear to work on this picture any longer. I’m aware that there are quite a few mistakes in the anatomy, and for once I don’t even care. Well, enjoy this horror, and remember why human alchemy is forbidden.
The worst was looking up pictures of body builders and mermen on Google for references. So shameful T_T …

Ha, this picture is great — the sparkles crack me up (remember the time when Armstrong hung little wires on his head to suspend the pink sparkles? =) )
Happy Memorial Day, Kabitzin!
