Howdy,

Drew this up yesterday while bored on watch. Actually been meaning to do this ever since I saw Jetty's original artwork of her back when I first became a member of the TFCC... Oh well, better late than never.

I had a few things in mind when I sat down to draw her. One being Jetty's original image (obviously), a Zora from Zelda, and Fairy Leviathan from Megaman Zero... kind of like a mash between all three. Jetty said she TF'd Basic-style, ala Rattrap and Terrorsaur, and I wanted that to be preserved. At least, I can see it.

So what do you guys think?

It's amazing, man. I don't like too much her face, but it still fits very good with the rest of the figure.

Does the dolphin's head become her chest?

Her face was based off an image in my head of the Zoras from the Legend of Zelda. Sorry if you don't like it.

And yes, the beast mode head folds down against her chest in robot mode.

No problem about the zora face, man, it looks good with the aquatic looks of her.

What I like the most about the design is that it's detailed but at the same time it looks like you've drawn it in about 5 minutes, I also like her hands.

How does she transform? I mean, where do end the different dolphin parts in the robot mode?

Heh, it was a fairly quick drawing, I do admit. I spent maybe an hour or so on it, off and on between spurts of busy-ness at work. So maybe a total of half an hour actually working on it?

Her transformation is much like the Basic-class flip-changers, like Rattrap or Terrorsaur. The dolphin head folds down against her chest, the dorsal fin sits atop her head, the flippers fold out and become arms (as you can see the fins on the forearms), the tail folds up behind her back, and the rest of the dolphin splits and extends to become legs.

Glad you like.
