The Tidewitch was one of my designs BUT not one of my minis; here is the original sculpt I did as part of a group of figs I was asked to come up with. I hadn't noticed mermaids in the concept art yet so I thought that would fit the criteria. The idea I pitched was a zombie that wasn't very mobile but could lure players to it and away from the party. Also, it let me sculpt something in a more "human" scale instead of the gigantic stuff I normally do.
As far as production, I suspect that the curvature of the tail in my sculpt was too problematic for casting. Looking at the new sculpt the tail is wrapped around a rock making the outstretched arm the only real tricky part to get cast. The original pose still lives on in the game art.
