Final for my Painting for Comics class. Had to be a song or a poem, so I picked Great Big Sea's "The Mermaid." (Which is technically by Shel Silverstein, but I used their version of it).

I think it's a rule that every Sequa student has to make at least one raunchy, somewhat inappropriate comic during their time at SCAD. This would be mine, I suppose. Aren't I naughty!

I'm not particularly pleased with the way that these came out, just because I had some really good intentions, and what with one thing and another and another and another, I wound up having to paint most of these pages over the course of a single, caffine-and-tear-filled night, so I sacrificed a lot of my original detail for the sake of getting it done. If I ever have time, I wouldn't mind going back and trying to do this again.

Drawing a "sexy" reverse mermaid was so much more fun than it had any right to be.

Heh. You'd be surprised all the stories I hear from parents who are GBS fans about their wee ones singing this song. The general consensus seems to be telling the child that "That's how he gets his tale. You know, his story. Yes, precisely..."

Granted, in the comic, it's supposed to be the little boy from page one all grown up.

Thanks! One of my favorite GBS songs. If you think it's twisted in writing, you should hear all the naughtiness that Sean McCann gives it when sung aloud.

BTW, I totally love you Twin Vice fic, and I'm not the type that usually goes for long-fic. I didn't know you were on dA. Much easier to bug you about updating now! *evil grin*
