To my eye one of the best parts of the original is the amazing colour gradations in the mermaid's hair. The rest of the colouring is pretty good too.
Whatever edit you settle on, try not to lose those colours.
I have a bit of a problem with the centre-most part of the swirl. I think it needs to be softened or something like that, or possibly changed. And I think the circular swirls in #3 should be concentric with the arc of the swirl behind the mermaid.
Thank you very much R.G. The swirl was made from colors in the mermaid so it depends on which part you use as to the result.. I like the swirls go in the last one..
