... SPLASH!

Since weather decided to be even more rainy in France dunring my holidays, I could not wait anymore to submit this drawing as an attempt to make sun come back to work! x)

This drawing is a remake of an old 2009 drawing: www.deviantart.com/lumenox/art…
In fact, weeks ago NintendoKiddo64 and Anarxshe told me I wasn't so bad with watercolor, though I always remembered my skills in watercolo was lacking and that I had to mix with color pencils a lot... but then I looked at this picture of 2009 and thought: not that bad indeed, I could learn a thing or two of my old self!

From this thought, I just decided to redraw this pic, correct this lacking perspective and take what I can from my traditional way of painting. I hope this helped make this digital picture look more traditional like.
-Gosh, this picture took me SOOOOO loong! fun but long. I was thankful that this coloring style is much faster by the way, it saved me time. I took lot of time to draw a good perspective.
-Talking about perspective: a big thank you to BlueRoseArkelle and the wonderful perspective tutorial: www.deviantart.com/blueroseark… that finally helped me understand the doule pont perspective. And with krita tools it was waaaaayyy easier to draw this swimming pool.
-It was also waaaayyyy easier to be acurate with the character size: I checked every charactger size so everythng should be correct.
If you like I can submit a step by step and show you the perspective sketch
-And I totally picked my old technique to draw the bush/tree leaves: I like it a lot!
-Oh and in the end I could find a good way to draw the water in the pool -_- I also tried different way, I also tried to derform the shapes underwater... that is the best I could do right now.

EDIT: thanks to Zotco who gave me the idea to add a transparency mask to make the tiles underwater less visible due to water! looks more watery lke that indeed!
