It's difficult to pin down. It's just a bit twee. Too much Disney. I prefer my mermaids a bit creepier, more inhuman. Something like this:

Also it looks like someone was about to submit the green and suddenly thought, "Gah! Breasts! That's what I forgot!" And tacked them on in 5 seconds.

truely i think its the pose of the model that sets it off. it i suppose looks like its underwater and just still of lounging, but also because it must sit on a base looks like its rising out of the water, the hair and fins give conflicting visuals. still youve done a bang up job here, hard to work with her i think given the models tendancy to be suggesting something different with every peice..
