Description This is a birthday prezzie for *Oracle88
I hope you had a great one and like this

I'm starting to do more ocean scenes than before and I really enjoy them (even though they take about 8 hours). I'm heavily influenced by one of my favourite artists, Christian Riese Lassen and would like to aim for his level. Miricales can happen right? I'm only 14, but I always expect so much from my artwork. I'm not sure if thats a good thing though >_<

Enjoy everyone! YOU MAY NOT USE THIS IMAGE WITHOUT MY CONSENT

This background was amazing (and the orca's to). Could you please make a tutorial for this? or do you know where I can find someone who does? Beautiful anyway .. You are an amazing artist <3

Thankyou C:
It's nothing special really, but maybe if you look up "underwater tutorial", that might help you!

wow !!! very nice!! i love the anatomy of the fish and the detail on the ocean floor, the orcas are nice ly done but i feel you should practice on their anatomy try to find pics of orcas in the position you painted them it will help. the place where underwater begins looks a bit abrupt and cut off, maybe you should smooth it out or blur it a bit ? i hope this helped !!! its a great artwork overall !! KEEP IT UP !!

This is beautiful! I like the fish, and the front orca really has a presence, I'm especially drawn to the eye.

I agree with 's comment about creating a gradient in the water. One thing that stands out to me are the orcas shadows, they seem misplaced and set farther back then where the orcas actually are. Their shadows should be closer to the foreground-for example, over or in front of the rocks.

thankyou Yes silly me... xD
About the shadows... The light source was supposed to be coming from the left hand side of the picture. I should have made it more obvious by highlighting the rocks and fish.. Thankyou!

Great drawing, I'm glad she liked it so much Lovely lionfish, of course the others are awesome too I do have one tip though, maybe you could make the water in the underwaterpart a little bit darker and lighter here and there, because it looks a bit flat now other than that, great!

Only 14?!!
You should know that when it comes to it being realistic, you've already surpassed many artists who's one, two, three, heck even six years older than you!
Keep it rolling!
You're doing great already ^^
(and I'm pretty sure you're way better than me at realistic stuff xD and I turn 16 this year )
