    No. You had to go with a mermaid tail or blonde hair, I couldn't do both without a lot of editing. Surprise! Haven as mermaid:

    Oh, mine came from the doll site itself. You have to poke around in odd corners... You get the mermaid by clicking on full body. All you can change is face and I added a headpiece and background. That is the limit of full bodies, you must take the hair that comes with it. I have hand painted a few for Afro-American friends with good success! Any Picture editing program will do it.

    Thank you, Bluesky and Pendragon I am one delighted little mermaid! Happily flipping my tail.
    PS: It always made a tad nervous that the ads for 'chicken o' the sea' had a mermaid on the can...

    I checked the site out. I know mermaids are supposed to be beautiful and they're sort of sexy, but these mermaids are totally sexualized - that's what bugs me about fantasy art sometimes. I like understated sexuality in art - any kind of art. I especially like picassos where it's all jumbled up. I prefer not to be slapped across the face with it.

    I should probably not be posting this because it's like I am bashing your post and that's not my intention at all --- just a little side rant in over-sexed art I guess. Sorry! Thanks for your attention.

    That's perfectly alright Shalot.......
    actually its one of the milder links I found....
    and yes it does bother me that lots of "art" sites are geared towards pushing the sex angle.....seems like people think that's the only way to advertise....

    Oh well off my soapbox now..and
    sorry for hijacking the thread...oh my Haven here's where I need that angel icon.

    There angels



    Well Pen, couldn't do the total look; wanted to do a little pet dragon, but thought the black and white kittie was like your pic Background to reflect the dragon scenario. Gothic !!



    Was hoping for a Dead Head t-shirt Bluesky... but yes another gap in the market... anyway, got your ginger tom-cat, oh and the tree behind for the 100 acre woods.

    New with these dolls, so apologies to all portrayed... :bad art:

    Looks fine to me. I did dozens of these a one time or other and added things in from everywhere. I think you are about the third to put me in that shirt, maybe I'd better buy one!
