Oh, wonderful! I'm so glad you explained how you did it. Gosh, I just love it so much, and this gets bonus points with me because I went through a phrase during which I played Neopets nonstop and it was a BLAST.

Thanks! They do have a cute puppy-dog charm to them...I never actually had one as a pet in-game, but I was nuts about the plush. I'm glad you thought I managed to bring that charm to the drawing!
The watercolor effect involves putting down layers of color alternating with the colorless blender. Like, you make it bleed EVERYWHERE. Then you put down another color. Then you soak it again. Start light, go darker, and if you want the color to be more saturated, soak a darker color in a lighter color of a similar hue to make it bleed out. Make sure you have thick, thick paper (or cardboard) underneath your drawing. I kind of learned that the hard way ^_^; The technique kind of takes a lot out of the colorless blender...I highly recommend investing in a refill bottle if you plan to color a large piece with it. Does that make sense?
