August 4th, 2018. First time I was majorly satisfied with the end result, especially since she's drawn four times here. The reason is her face. Ever since drawing this, I've made a greater effort to keep my faces round; it also helps that I started remembering small details.
First one's from Apr. 28th, second's from May 25th, both in '18. As you can see, these were back when I still wasn't quite consistent with my abilities. I was so disappointed in myself after the second one, that I stopped drawing for two months before resuming.
Mar. 17th, '18. Tried some new poses with her second-design weapon; one of these is remade from a traditional doodle sheet from Jan. 13th.
Fun fact: Meryl herself is mildly poisonous, and has a tongue several times longer than that of a human.
Feb. 21st, '18. It was the first time I did her full body in color, and the first time on the Gaomon PD1560 I still use to this day. Although I like hands on even some of my oldest stuff, this is an exception.
...eh, at least she's got a cute face.
Here's a side view of her face I'd done to test out my then-new Huion H610 tablet, on February 11th, 2018. Despite the different hardware and my limited skill at the time, I don't think this one aged that terribly.

@WriteShadySands Hello there! After spending much time making new characters, I gotta put my attention back on my main character, the blondie with a blade, Meryl of Aquarius!
I wanna feature her in a comic, and if I don't get my act together, that will never see the light of day. ~
@DeePeeArts Wassup! I'm Niko! And I really dig merpeople, as you can see.
@ika_himee Hi, peeps! My name's Niko, and I have mer-peeps! Plenty of them!
