Melody grown up

Edit: Oh uh...sorry for the super un-original pose. XD And the reason why I decided to make her top green is because her hair band and the bow on her shirt when she was kid were both green, and since ariel's top wasn't the same color as her tail I thought it would be cool.

So I absolutely HATE it that my 'Melody All Grown Up' has like 174 or something favorites. Its....goopy, and loopy, and strange, and I don't like it at all. BLEH. it looks melty! WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE IT?

So I decided I'd redraw her so that I could upload a Melody that I actually do like (she better get more faves than the melty one). And guess what? I actually like this one! I think I did it quite a bit better then my other melody(I hope) I feel I've advanced greatly since then....I hope.

I'm just frustrated that I forgot her locket!!!! so instead I made the shell behind her gold like her locket...I don't care much for the background but my mom likes it so I decided to keep it, I hope y'all like it too.

Melody's all grown up!!!! I didn't really like the movie about her but I think she's awesome.
