Technical Info: Figure (Vicky 4) and pirate ship were first rendered using Poser Pro using the Fire Fly render engine. Background painted from scratch and figure re-paint was done with a Wacom Intuos 3 series tablet & pen (9x12) in Adobe Photoshop CS3. Approx. 35 hours. Original is over 9000 pixels.
In this work I was trying to give the viewer a sense that the mermaid herself is the "treasure" or that only she knows where the "pirate's treasure" would be because of the tattoos on her back and arms, just an idea I came up with over coffee one morning.
