ah cool! I didn't know you used watercolor on this piece. ( I'm dense and never read descriptions anymore and plus I'm just dense. ) What watercolor brand did you use again? And is that a hot or cold press paper you watercolored on?
I used ph martins colored inks for the main color flats and then had to go over some areas in reeves gouche (which is the chalkiest, ugliest color spectrum EVER but i could afford it. :3 Given money weren't an issue I'd buy a set of holbein gouche).
As for paper I made a big old poop of a mistake. I *should* have used watercolor paper (i usually use hotpress because im not huge on expressive painting so I dont like lots of texture). However, i used thin marker cardstock and even after streching the paper it still got little bends and such in it. stupid paper! *hits paper*
