What? What? Misty drew a child from a Disney sequel? Oh, yes. That's right. I went there.

I'll be the first to say that The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea rather sucks. But, for some inexplicable reason, I don't hate it (it's actually pretty decent for a sequel). And I actually do like Melody--she's a good character (and I enjoy her bushy man eyebrows). I guess it's because there are fleeting moments of good animation/characterization, and the songs are okay.
But Melody should have totally trashed that party. You know, fallen in the cake. :eyes:

Anyway, I've drawn happy kids, angry kids, kids who climb on rocks... so I thought I should draw a sad kiddie. :giggle:



And the kiddies get their own little folder: [link]

Indeed. Melody is the sort of successor you'd expect out of Ariel. And we also get to see mother-mode Ariel as a bonus, which adds loads to her character. (Which surprisingly no one ever focuses on?) Yah, there are quite a few bad Disney sequels, and this one did have its downsides ("Ursula's crazy sister"? WEAK) but Melody is alright in the Disney family.

...and on that note, Cinderella 2 was absolute gobshite yet Cindy 3 was actually kind of intense. How does that work? (Though that "perfectly perfect" opening song makes me wanna drive an ice pick through my eye)

Nice work!

Nice drawing!!! Love how you drew the eyes

Although "The Little Mermaid" is way better, I actually like Melody way more than Ariel. Why? Because unlike Ariel, Melody actually learns her lesson and changes by the end of the film. I think Melody herself is the one (and perhaps the only) redeeming factor in "The Little Mermaid II" :)

I really liked the film's premise-- half-mermaid girl discovers her mermaid heritage--but I feel it could've been way more original and/or fleshed out. Liz Kessler's "The Tail of Emily Windsnap" takes that same premise, but handles it MUCH better: [link]

Keep up the good work :D!!!

HAhah, I wouldn't bother honestly. Not unless you watch the movie with some friends to cackle at it. :giggle:
