Ponythread Learns to Draw II

[MLai]

So, in keeping with the latest MLP:FiM topic title, and cephalopony plushies, and Rarity vs Giant Crab, and the talk on the first few pages of other pony societies... and Hasbro's dumb approval for a fat bearded merlion sea-king with a dumb name to be the ruler of seaponies/mermares...

(I got nothing against fat bearded merlions but why is he ruling seaponies and mermares? That's like Iron Will being Prince/King of Equestria.)

I drew "Princess Meridia", who in alicorn fashion is a mix between seaponies and mermares (based on the old MLP bathtub toys). I like line art but I'm not a good Photoshop colorist nor do I want to be one. If y'all judge my 3rd Sibling Princess to be worthy, anyone want to collaborate and color it? Whatever coloring style you want, be it flat Flash or more detailed.

2. The wing-fins extend all the way down her back in 2 rows. Inspired by lionfish.
3. The breastplate is inspired by seahorse. Inset with pearl.
4. Horseshoes use clamshell motif.
5. Design of ear-fins, ankle fins, and eyes are canon.

Edit: Thanqol will be helping me color my Sea Princess.
