This is one of my first chances at watercolour and tell me what you think. I failed on the mountain I think, as I had to mix the greens, no green itself.

Looks nice, but to me the arms look a bit weird. But you captured that seasidey sort of feel. Well done :thumbup:

Nice, but the colour differences on the arms do make them look a bit strange. Good job though.

Oh those are arms, thought they were trees :P. I like the job you did on the water and the sky, looks fabulous. The arms and the forest looks a bit weird, the colours on the arms is similar to bark and the colours of the forest is too light in my opinion.

 

 

 

^Messy post.

What's with the 'messy post syndrome'? It isn't messy :P

I always tend to make messy posts as I figure out something new to say about the things I mentioned first in the sentence but that added part comes up later in the sentence.

 

 

 

^Complicated and messy.

Well it doesn't matter if it's messy if it gets the point across.

 

 

 

Back on-topic.

 

 

 

Forgot to say, excellent job on the water :thumbup:

Concept is nice.

To be brutally honest, everything but the arms looks bad.

 

 

 

The water looks nice, but it doesn't resemble water at all besides for it being blue, more ripples, make it look smoother and more solid, and add accurate reflections on it also to make it look great.

 

 

 

Mountains don't have thick black outlines, in fact, stray away from using thick strokes unless you need to show a rough texture (such as a rock, or rocky mountain) and don't use outlines (only in pencil before you start.)

 

 

 

The kite's shading looks smooth, but overall it's unrealistic and looks really stiff. (by the way, who's/what's holding it?, the string just goes into the water.)

 

 

 

The sky and window would look better if they were more solidly colored, a lot of the strokes look really harsh.

 

 

 

The glass affect at the top is good, but it doesn't show any similarities to the shapes in the sky at the bottom, though if the strokes were smoother and blended more, it would look great.

 

 

 

 

 

Apart from not being uniform, the arms look much more realistic, the strokes on the forearms that you made gives it a texture of hairiness, though the color changes are a bit harsh again.

 

 

 

One thing that would really make them look great would be some shading/color on them to make them look like they aren't just resting. (the two long bones at the wrist going into the palm, some slight blue veins, etc.)
