Beach Time Fara by Rafchu (Coloring)

Continuing my Coloring Craze.  This was another reward from Rafchu, with Fara having some fun in the sun.  I 'really liked how cute the original sketch art turned out.

I really wanted to try and give off the feeling of a being at a sunny beach, so I used it as a chance to practice & play around with shadows & highlights.  I also looked a lot at Takehito Harada's (Disgaea Series Character Director) beach pics for general aids for lighting and such.  Anyways, here's the result, hope you enjoy!  Thanks again Raf!
