Reference = [link]

So since the result of my poll said that I should do more colour stuff, voila. I wanted to get more practice of underwater shots too :)

Please tell me if you have any tips :)

This is a beautiful piece. =) I love the color of the water. You've used a fantastic technique for its color. Overall the style here is very cheerful.

The only problem that stands out to me is her left arm. I think you made it longer than it should be. Otherwise, bravo!

Thanks! It was hard to do, I don't know if it was the paper, but I'd colour and colour it and it'd still leave little white dots. Haha and I'm glad I managed to make it cheerful! I thought the reference was a bit gloomy, she had a really far off expression like she was pondering things that had happened to her in the past.

Yeah you're probably right on that. Gawd I redrew that so many times! It was difficult since I had to draw her sideways and I had to redraw her enough to get the angle right! But I'll get arm length with more practice I suppose, so then I won't just have to rely on the reference to get it right. Thanks for your tip :)

It was probably the paper then. Personally I love the way you layered the colors. They are so vivid that they themselves make the picture a happy one. (Or...at least it looks cheerful to me! :XD:)

References help a lot. It's just that the part where the upper and lower arm connect is slightly lower than it should be, but it doesn't make her look deformed or anything. :) You did good.

Sorry for not being able to pin point it at first xDD
And like I said, the rest is absolutely beautiful, so I hope the nostrils thing wasn't offending D:

That's great to hear since I don't use colouring pencils often! I think I do tend to make pictures brighter that they are... eg on Bliss the sand is more golden than in the reference.

Fair enough, I think what it was was that I was trying to get her angle just right and to fill the whole picture if you know what I mean. If I'd made it any shorter it wouldn't have been cut off at the bottom and I'd have to move her whole body!

I guess it's easier in some ways than in Photoshop since on Photoshop you paint over the original colour so it's more difficult to mix! :)
