From the POKEDDEX Challenge: Favorite Water-type.

Jellicent and Milotic are high on my list of favorite Water-types, but I decided to stay with the classic mermaid fox I fell in love with when I was little. Hard for me to take the nostalgia goggles off of Vaporeon.

I wanted to try a lineless piece this round. I feel it's a decent job considering I don't use this technique often. Vaporeon's back scales were a BASTIODON to draw though. D: Despite picking colors from official artwork, the scales and his regular skin started bleeding together into one indistinguishable mess, and I had to redo the coloring around his tail fin. Glad it worked out in the end. I don't understand why I placed the light source in the bottom left corner, but I just rolled with it.
