Description Once again, I push my style to its limit.

Mistakes: The mountains don't look as great as in Wavlian Dream. Neither do the grass hills.

This is giftart for . I've been wanting to draw her river girls for a while now. I was planning to draw three of them, but due to time constraints, I could only do one, and that is Maumee River Girl. Here is the oringinal pic [link]

With that said, I wanted to put my all into the shading of her. After the lineart process, I realized that by making the sun visible to where you see it now, I have to shade this in differently. However, the actual process of shading differently didn't begin until I started working on her chest, head and hair. In the end, shading was trail and error, but it all paid off if I earned a new way of shading.

I did have fun. I sometimes like to hunt for colors that I can use for ephemeral effect (and for regular shading as well). Thank you for commenting.

I wanted to add a sea serpent to the background, like she's summoning it, but I couldn't quite fit it in a way that would make it clearly visible. The water effects are what I'm most happy about. Maybe I'll do more stuff like this in the future.

Planning and layout was the hard part. everything else was easy...well, except for the water effects. I'm happy you like this. Thank you for letting me draw her her. I'd be happy to work on those other two girls at another time

Thanks. I could've but a little more effort into the background though instead of relying on visual effects and illusions, but it payed off with the coloring of Maumee. Thank You for commenting.
