Redesigning a godess - WIP

Description

Funny thing, ever since I started redesigning Demonakos, two of my other 'gods' (they're not really gods, just treated like them by mortals), decided 'hey, we want new looks too!'.  So I started with Azuwezia, as she's easier to figure out.  I actually didn't change her too much, but I did want to incorporate more of what signifies the 'water' part of the two elements she represents (air, being the other one).  I did not want to resort to 'strutted fins' that a lot of aquatic based fantasy creatures seem to sport (they don't match her on the 'elegant' front), so I went with manta ray styled fins instead  (though the slightly strutted ears look good on her for some reason).

That said, this isn't final just yet, as I am not certain I like her tail (I was going for stiff feathers/hair, but it just doesn't look right).  Suggestions/ideas would be welcome.

I come from a family of boaters, so the fear of sea monsters is naturally ingrained in my mind. Though this one doesn't seem so bad :P

I've seen serpent-like creatures with everything from fins to wings, but I've NEVER seen manta-ray anatomy with one. That's a really interesting choice. And I like the way you did the hair from head to tail. The only suggestion I can think of is that she looks like she needs a bit 'more' to add to mobility. Unless she's really light and those back-fins can propel her well enough. Or if it's a "It's magic, logic not necessary" situation, then that's fine too XD
