ABOUT THIS DRAWING
'Kay so this is a contest entry for *SugarNini 's Rainbow Radar contest! It took me hours and hours and hours to finish (I joinme'd some of them so there's the proof) like more than 6-7 maybe. I spent around 3 on it today. I tried to adhere to the theme of friendship. And of course, since it's summer, why not! A happy beach scene! Yeah, Spixxel might be more interested in befriending the fish than with Cream.
So, about drawing the drawing: I messed around with a LOT of brushes for this. For the sand I used a blood brush (heh
) you can find here-[link] It's wonderful for more things than blood. 
The water was mainly drawn using that and the 'spread' setting. At first I tried to be neat with the layers, but after shading Cream I was like .. Screw this. In a few hours, 100 layers or so had accumulated. P: I'm so sorry I can't help it.The background looked soooo plain at first. The leaves and the wave and the lei and the beachball were all added at the very end. xD I can't tolerate emptiness. MUST. BE. FILLED. WITH. STUFF.
I think I'm in love with Spixxel's eyes. But he seems to have fallen for the fish. Oops.

I really love this picture! (totally not just saying that because it was drawn for me though) But since I've made it my personal mission/goal to help you with your art, lemme start the critique.
Firstly, I really love the shading on the characters. It flows and it isn't too messy and it doesn't obscure the colors and designs on them. Its pleasing to look at and still shows where the shadows are and how the light works.
I simply ADORE the clouds (I just love clouds a lot) but the waves look kind of odd moving sideways along the beach? But maybe thats just a perspective error.
Joeal and Jam look so happy lying next to eachother! However Joeal seems to be missing a leg (back leg).
Spixxiel seems like hes enjoying his time in the water with his fish friend (that looks suspiciously like pike) But his jaw seems to be connected on the left side and that looks just a tad bit off. Also his body seems to be much too thick for his legs (eating a little too much, eh?) Where his legs should be at least half as thick as his body.
I can't see anything wrong with Cream! (And that martini looks delicious) The little characters you have in the background are very fitting too! Though I wouldn't add any extra fronds on palm leaves though, they look fine.
I only gave this a 3 in originality because beach scenes are so overused. But overall its a great drawing and you've improved so much since I started watching you c: Keep shining, Goldy!

Caaaayyyy you're awesome because you're always so honest about your opinions and that helps me a tonnn. Don't worry about offending me because I have iron in my veins. C:<
Yeaaa, the water sucks a bit. I had issues with the foreground n the perspective n stuff. I ate Joeal's back leg. I'm sorry. ;___;;;
THE FISH IS NOT PIKKKKEEEE
;_; its white because i don't know what kinds of pretty fish shaped like that are in the ocean sooo. I would have made it koi but theyyyy don't come from the ocean do they? O.o
