I've been working on a merman lately...



and I need some ideas for a background/backdrop (besides the usual sand/dirt/underwater scene)

any creative thoughts (my brain is too tired!)?

What's wrong with an underwater scene?

Options:

A) A trophy in a castle. You've got a pose, just add a pedestal.

B) Still the water, but cresting out of the top of it, maybe?

C) FISHBOWL!

 

There, look those over for a sec.

thank you for your kind replies.

it's not that I don't want to an underwater scene, it's just that I have indeed already tried that and didn't like the way it went. So I have gone back and am now restarting the background and I feel I need to go a drastically different direction or risk falling into the same traps as I did before.

and I like the idea of a trophy of some sort, perhaps I'll take that into consideration.....
