This paper is so hopelessly unsuited to watercolor paints. Oh well. It's coming along now, though.

Here's the original black&white: [link]

Here's the first version of color: [link]

Thanks! I'm just messing, a little at a time (when the baby sleeps, if that ever happens)... I'm thinking of overlaying colored pencil when I'm "done" with the watercolor. It's not watercolor paper, so I imagine the extra texture might be a good thing. Whatcha think?

I think that's a great idea. I have a friend who often adds charcoal over his watercolor and ink stuff to give it more texture and depth. I think color pencil would do about the same, only with richer color. Let me know next time you update it. :nod:

I've updated it! And I think it's final, too: "Have Frog, Will Travel" [link]. No colored pencil, as it turned out, but I'm finally pleased with it after all!
