I thought the composition was too rigid, so I changed it to have more curves. Purple is the hair. The way the female fish looks back. I finished drawing the body of the male fish and it went relatively smoothly. The posture of the left hand has changed because it is not easy to find the character correspondence with the direction of the left hand in the manuscript. .:' ::' ::: :: ... ... .... ::. ........................ :::. . .... ..... .... ::::. .... .. .. .. ::..... ::::' .......... ... . :::. .. ::: .... .. ... ... ::.. ... ::. . .. .. .. ::::.. . ::: . …..….:::…..::: ............ : ::: ........ . : ::. ヘ::. ㄟ ::.

Later I found out that it was used for drafting: the number was very nice and had the effect of fish scales, so I kept it. The body of the male fish on the left has also been drawn. You can see that the hand on the far left doesn’t look quite right. The original idea was to have the palm facing up. Added some water patterns to represent the environment and balance the composition. .:' . . . . . .. ::' . .. . . . . . ::: .' .. :: .:' . .. ::. ::' . .. :::. .::' . ...

I made the shoulder of the far left arm a little thinner to prevent it from looking swollen. I can't find a suitable character for the lower part of the arm. Rather than make do with it, it's better not to draw it and leave it blank. I drew the bubbles, fish tail, and fins, and it’s almost the same as the final draft. o o ゜ o : ゜ o :: o , ⌒ " .: o ,﹙.::' ﹞ . ..::::':'. o ' o . .
