I guess I’ll play this time👍
Excellent!
Holiday Sail
I made use of the GDquest brushes here. I’d played with them before but never really dedicated an entire image to them. Fun brushes!
I also used a few palm tree brushes that I pulled together from some vectors I made in Inkscape.
I’m not sure if this is ready for prime time, so I’ll post it in WIP for now.
Nice boat drink @Bobrowsdower ! 
Trying out @Pesi 's Watercolor brushes. I’m still figuring out how to watercolor in Krita… I’m open to suggestions and I’ll keep working on it.
Spotted Eagle Rays:
@OmaKikismakes : I just tried adding a watercolor paper texture for the background on this and I liked the effect… even though you really need to zoom in to see it.
Lots of options are available with a google search “watercolor cold pressed paper background jpg” (with permission, of course) or use this:
@sooz Is this ok for the challenge or does it violate the photobash restrictions?
I´m trying out a special Tukan made of Fruits.
Any advice about the bachground? I can´t decide what I will do.
I mostly used Watercolor Texture and Water c spread wide Area.
make it black
You’re fine, @steve.improvthis. I wouldn’t see using a watercolour paper texture as photobashing. If you had found an image of skates somewhere and inserted copies of them in your artwork, I would see that as photobashing and it would not be allowed in the challenge.
@Pisarka I´ve tried it. It do not work with the lights. But thank´s for the suggestion.
You´re right. It looks very realistic. I like it. Must try 
uff, so many options…
Ooooh! 
I expected a Brazilian supermodel to have that drink, not a frog! 
Haven’t tried drawing any Supermodels before:thinking:. I have drawn a Red eyed green tree frog once or twice. 
Experience?
If you know what’s good, then you don’t look around for sodas …
