it just doesnt work

christmas has come early

Thank you.

christ thanks so much

Yeah I HATE when people draw mythical creatures that don’t exist wrong

Not only that, early depictions of mermaids have them depicted in similar ways, such as the lower legs fusing together into a tail or the mermaid merely two tails instead of legs, like the starbucks mermaid or having human legs and a tail

or in this case, the mermaid literally has a fish tail suit over human legs, similar to the seal skins used by silkies
