Pacific Tropical Blend

I don't know what else to do with this XD;;. This is right in Photoshop and I still have a really hard time doing direct to tablet work. No lines again ! I've been debating taking commissions in this style to force me to get better at it. NOT sure yet. I fail at it just doing it for myself to an extent right now. =One-Vox ... I made those textures, how do they look? I mean if you look at this... Your texture tutorial helped a lot!

This is another piece to the Dream Creatures: oWatero series I'd like to say I'm working on more but that'd be a lie D:! I'm trying not to over-render (and saturate) this but I don't know if I haven't done enough. It's been two months on and off of work though so I should leave it be for a while. I keep hearing artists on CG Society talk about how their work that hasn't reached the level of Technical Perfection they want it at. Well... what does that mean? Now, I mean the artists that paint humans so real it's hard to tell it's actually a CG... I have to wonder what they're after with their work and if maybe I should start working towards technical perfection? Can anyone enlighten me on this term?

Anyway, I'll probably touch this up because I'll be selling prints at ACEN of this on big 11 x 17 glossy paper XD! Originally she was supposed to be upside down, like she was in a cave on the ocean... roof?

Critiques welcome ^^. I didn't even finish one of her hands... I'm almost sure I should tone down the colors JUST a bit and make it murkier... maybe? Those are natural markings too XD;;. NOT well placed nipple covers! I probably should add more blue to her body...
