Nice sketch on the new piece! I think the colors used in that reference pack could make this one really cool if you chose to go in that direction , but i suppose that would require you making her under water and not on the surface. Personally i would love to see her totally submerged and really play with the lighting on this one but that's just me.
My only crits on the sketch so far would be the bikini shell shapes are currently looking asymmetrical. If that's by design then ignore, but if not, you could tweak either one to better match the shell ridge pattern. And if you did move forward with her coming out of the water and climbing a rock her lower half could use some attention. currently it gives a look that her lower half is like a bowling pin and not a long tail, maybe widening a bit at the bottom, and playing with the scale formations to give a stronger impression that her body continues offscreen. also i agree with the crits on the tattoo, tribal is not in vogue at the minute :-) i would much rather see a cool glowing scale formation or maybe even some barnacles :)
But nice work so far, looking forward to how you approach this one
