Mensch, dabei sollte man doch Leute in Schwimmhallen vom ersten Lebensjahr an malen können 
Das Wasser gefällt mir auf jeden Fall richtig gut, schön flüssig, so blöd das auch klingt!
Die Schwimmer sehen super aus, man merkt richtig die Bewegung, auch wenn du im Bereich Beine vielleicht tatsächlich ein büschen vage warst ^^.
In dem Sinne also, Ist gut, jo!

Echt?!? Verdammt warum erfahre ich das erst 19 Jahre später
Ah ja die Beine... es sollten eigentlich Arme sein. Das wurde jetzt schon öfter gesagt, dass die zu vage sind. Da muss ich echt aufpassen nächstes mal.
Danke Mr. Jedimeister : D

Great dynamic comp! The water has awesome refraction effects but could use sharper reflection highlights here and there. And the liquify tool is brilliant for water.

Ah yes the highlights, good point! I try to make the water more sparkly next time when I paint water again oO. Thanks for the help mate!! : )

They're too buoyant. The higher a head is out of the water the lower the legs needs to be. In a front crawl, the body is twisted so only the back of the head, one shoulder and arm are out of the water. During the part of the stroke when both arms are just under the water the body is twisted so the face breaks the surface to draw breath on the side with the arm that's about to come out of the water.
Swimmers, after some practice, don't splash, they create wakes like you would see on boats.

Thanks so much for the critique, so appreciated: ) It makes perfect sense what you are saying. But actually I tried to paint the butterfly www.google.de/search?q=kelebek… ;
I really should have showed the other arm or make things in another way more clear, it really does look like a crawl with that weird angle
