TG - Water Nymph

Description

Here was a dude with a lousy attitude. When he first saw the portal pop out of nowhere into his parents' living room, he began throwing stuff at it. Partially because, well who cares about his parents' property and partially because he thought something awesome would happen. As it turned out, nothing really happened and it dawned on him that maybe this swirly blue vortex was in fact a some kind of portal.

With a screech, he heard his parents park outside. And rapidly he realized that if they saw that their house was now missing several pieces of furniture and two remotes, he'd be in for an evening of real fun.

Like the irresponsible coward he was, he bolted into the blueness and arrived in a craggy desert, complete with mesas and buttes all over. Having evaded the authorities, he smirked with satisfaction.

Not too far away, he heard the sounds of coursing water overpower the gentle humming of the portal and chose to investigate. And as soon as he saw that great river, something felt wet around his hips. It couldn't have been the river, for as frantic the water flowed it was also far too many metres away to splash him. And wouldn't he have felt the impact?

Not content with just letting the oddity be as it were, he looked down and was shocked to see that not only was the bottom part of his shirt wet, it had also turned into a strange, blue, semi-liquid state. And it got wetter.

As soon as he had seen the weirdness that was his shirt, his trouser legs ripped themselves off of the rest of his trousers and got a metallic sheen. Within moments they would become a matching set of golden anklets. And his shoes simply evaporated into water vapour.

His shirt lengthened downwards until it became a simple blue dress hung from his right shoulder, all made from a fabric that was a bizarre mixture of water and cloth. But mostly water. And that water kept dripping down to the dirt below, strangely never ending as if her dress was an inexhaustible source of the stuff. A physicist cried when this happened. 

But of course not only her clothes changed, if that was the case she would still be a he, now wouldn't she? Her form had gotten considerably more pleasant, and golden blonde!

As the turning finalized, she remembered that she could either do the responsible thing and head back into a life of normality and blah blah blah... of course she didn't. Instead, she noticed how hot it was in the searing sunlight and opted to dive head first into the river. And as a Water Nymph, she would probably stay in the water for quite some time.

Lineart takes too long :/
But this was still really fun to do. If the Water Nymph had won the polls last year, she would have turned out a lot more boring so I'm really happy with the results here :)
I was really hoping to draw a new background, but I was thinking you guys have waited long enough so I just yanked one I had made long ago for this instead. If it fits, y'know?
