kudos for even ATTEMPTING water, which is annoyingly hard to do. The wave right at the front looks pretty good in fact, but the rest of it, not quite so much. Keep experimenting, but the only advice I can give for water is to just look at the stuff.
look at your drinks, pools, large bodies of water, anything to see water do watery things.
...
Even then... well, liquid is hard!
but you'll get it.

As for the girl, I like the overhead perspective you were doing and you did well in conveying the distance from her head to her hips. I think it is definitely time to start researching anatomy to help you improve your girls (but I'm gonna start doing that tutorial I said I would do, and I think I'll focus on drawing women and some basic anatomy)

you did an excellent job on the highlights in this picture. The reflected light on the underside of the breasts looks good and I REALLY like the highlight/glow around the left elbow. But I don't understand why you didn't use that same effect on the right arm (I think I would have highlighted the length of both forearms in this pic)


Also, the colours are very bright, and the contrast is very high between the dark of the night sky and the girl, which helps her pop out at us.
I don't know if that's because of the high resolution (since I don't know from computers)
but it looks really good.

Hey, I actually had a highlight on the other arm but I erased it at the last second cuz after I threw together the background I kinda thought the light source was in the wrong spot to hit that part of her body,

I actually tried water once before on my dock pic, but yeah the only reason I even attempt to draw water is cuz my pictures always seem to have some kind of swim suit...or I just get lazy and decide to cut off the bottom half of the picture haha

If your going to do anatomy in your tutorial It would be cool to see something on the general rib cage area cuz that always seems to lend more realism to pictures and I cant do it to save my life.
