Typical of me....
whatever
 This is still in the early stages, the colors aren't final and I know that her hand needs work and the fins colors/shading/texture is mostly color test. I will edit her top too!  Her face is bothering me mostly besides what I already pointed out.
All cc is welcome
 Here is the http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p152/zeejaxx/TEMP/marwipppy.png - very original btw, if anyone would like to see

| I think the face is ok. I mostly like hair and end of the tail, because they are very well shaded. What I dislike a bit is her bottom half - imho it should be more plastic and "wet" - it just doesn't look like scales. |

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. I should be more shiny and...scaley. :)
And I think that the transition between her skin and the bottom part needs some more seamless transition, in texture and/or color. |

 here is a bit of an edit, worked on the colors/shading some. I feel better 'bout her face.
Her tail is mostly what I have to work on besides any edits I might do due to CC I hope to get ;D
also I am not sure about the connection of her human/fish half.... feel like it still isn't right?
OH and I need to work on the lighting I know it isn't right, sorry!

| If she was in water her hair would be straight not f**king spread everywhere |

| That's when you get out of the water and it's wet, because your hair isn't heavier than the water it would actually be "f**cking spread everywhere" while you're underwater. |

ollantaytambo's a known troll, don't mind him/her.
The highlights on the hair are a little harsh? I also feel like the hair is weird in how it's clumped into giant strands, though this might be just opinion. |

I can't figure out how to pixel eyes either xD You have to convey so
much in such a few amount of pixels, you really have to get creative and
know how to make the most out of the pixel placement and color. So
hard x_x Anyway, I tried and kinda failed.  |

I would just go with plain dark for the eyes. The face and body are really too small to show much eye detail. Also the hair is cool, but kind of Medusa-looking. It doesn't really read mermaid hair.

For me first face was lovely,it's hot. But now it's better because looks mystical. Mayby more look like shell for bra? The hand is too big! I would also try reduce her neck. About the arm, i think this will by much more interesting:  The second arm could be also like that...

Ok its not much of an edit but I tried to go back to one of the first faces and edit it, how does it look now?
also, I changed her arms a bit but they don't seem as floaty,
 Shellbra.... yeah that was my first thought for her top but I thought it would be better to go away from the norm but I'll make one to see what you all think?

Cool claw thing. A quick edit on making the face prettier. Maybe not what you're looking for but...

@Yuran,
Thank you! that is very helpful!!! I will keep working on her face shape/color!
@Dpixel,
Thanks, idk why but I sketched her in a really odd pose which made it look like she was in pain/holding her arm and it made me think of witchblade ;P
Your edit is very helpful as well thank you!!!

I did not add much, just shadows in the right arm and a dithering on the left.
