Nlide resting with Arsemil

This is my first post here, so I am still trying to figure stuff out. This is my OC Nlide who rests on the floatable watermelon I saw in real life.Feb 14, 2023

I am impressed by how you can paint light. Water is no easy subject. And you even did some subsurface light scattering in the floaty! What looks a bit off are the volumes in perspective: the floaty and Nilde seem to follow two different perspectives, so they look like they are not in the same spot and therefore not touching. Also, you chose a difficult pose for them, with some challenging foreshortening: it also looks like the volumes of their body are not placed in the right way in relation to each other and the perspective. They are not completely wrong, but they do not feel coherent with each other. The choice of colours for the shadows feels appropriate. Maybe the white highlights can be more consistent (they are missing on one half of the floaty, even if its volume have similar surface orientations like the other half). Anyway a very difficult and challenging subject, there were so many different elements and theory pieces to manage here! Maybe if you want to correct some "weak points", you can make a drawing focusing only on one theory topic, so that your attention is not split between multiple challenges at once.
