Description Hm, I want my pictures to become more colorful, and now I'm trying out a few different ways...
Normal pencils like here: ushiab.deviantart.com/art/Rall…
Or aquarell pencils:  ushiab.deviantart.com/art/Phoe…
And now acryl?

Well, I like more acryl than watercolors because colors are stronger, but it's harder to make smooth transition
I like more acryl in your style, colors are stronger

Btw lil advice - when drawing with acryl/watercolors, use cardboard (or some kind of panel), and use tape (yellow one, something like this - www.ealati.hr/wp-content/uploa… ). That will keep your paper flat (or something dunno how to explain it )

Thank you soooo much for your answer!! 

Thanks for the hint but there is a lil problem:
The paper gets wrinkled because it soaks up the water and becomes bigger.
You understand? Even if I use tape, it becomes wet ---> bigger----> not flat
But: Maybe it works if I make the whole paper wet, fix it and dry it... Then the paper should be tautly? Or not?
ty and have nice day^^

But it becomes normal after drying or...?
Tape shoud be like on this - valrunie.deviantart.com/art/WI… . Yeah, paper will wrinkled, even if you use watercolor paper.
Idk, in school when we worked on one drawing, we make it wet and then we were drawing on it... idk, I don't use that, but my drawings are smaller and that one was bigggg. But yeah, teacher told us that we are doing that so it could be taut. We used sponge with a little water, and then we lefted it to dry (we did lineart before using water, but it was ok to draw after adding water). For that is good to have wooden panel then
Maybe you could try that, but with something simple...?
You're welcome
