Delighted with my poster. But I must admit I know what lurks behind her beauty. Altered_E

Ha, true! There are different versions of the tail, including the "lingerie tail" in the poster!
Creator David D Ochoa on December 13, 2010
The tail you made doesn't look like the tail in the poster.

Well, given the amount of work being put into it, the film will be finished when it's finished! Our Coney shoot will have to wait until the weather starts to get warm again- probably late March or early April. In the meantime I've got my hands full shooting studio elements and animation. Ultimately I'd like to enter "Fiji Mermaid" into horror film festivals, which all happen in October, and so will be aiming for a summer 2011 completion date in order to make it in time for festival deadlines. I know that's a long wait for the DVD/Blu-ray , but it should be worth it- good art just takes a lot of work and time, and the disc will include my earlier bizarro descent into sci-fi weirdness "Bride of the Fly", among other things: http://russellrichards.typepad.com/the-art-of-russell-u-richards/bride-of-the-fly/

Dave,
Thank you so much! It's a little scary, putting myself out there like this, as I'm usually behind the camera, so I really appreciate your kind words.
:)
