FileishugeFileishugeFileishugeFileishugeFileishugeFileishugeFileishugePracticing with small waves at a beach + the ocean
I failed with Mirage though, but my main focus was the background <3
I'm really starting to enjoy doing backgrounds nowadays c:
Still need moar practice though <3
So yah... I cheated with the clouds c: I'm too lazy to create them on my own for the moment <3
The shading sucks... x'D Flah... This is one of the few times I don't have a 'real' light source, so... pretend the sun is like... behind the camera k? Gewd
This one is kinda like a 'twin drawing' with... another one I've made :'D

This...is amazing e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="

e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="
" title="
(Big Grin)"/> I love how the sunlight refelcts down the middle, and grabs just as much attention as the actualy character to the left. I geuss my only critique is the clouds, try making them maybe yourself. You make gorgeous backgrounds, effects and characters, and I know clouds are hard, Im only suggesting because the clouds look different compared to the rest of the picture, however thats only my opinion dont worry :3 This picture reminds me of something (I dont know what |3'') but its totally 100% original,clear and Brilliant!

It's good that there are some parts of the sea which are darker and has no sparkles to show the 'wavelets' (in other words, small waves ). Besides, that little starfish underwater is quite a nice detail, and I think I'm seeing some coral to the right of this piece. (Blah, cheating is fine with me. c: )
But the problem with the sea is that it kind of looks too 'magical' and somehow reminds me of a thick liquid substance (a glittery slime for example XD). You can try to add some thin lines to indicate the wavelets on the surface of the sea.
As for the shading (on the sandy beach), the only problem I see happens to be the shadow missing from under Mirage's boots. (Ah who cares, I'm just pointing out some stuff you'd missed.) As for the source of light, I'd rather say it is directly in the middle of the sky.

Thankies
Yah it does xD And I'll try that sometime
Oh frigg .O. I cmopletely forgot about the shading under her boots x'D Awell, I'll try not to forget that next time~
Then let's sum up that the sun is out of the camera's sight :'D Just for simplify everything
