You've done such a good job here, and even more so for a first try - watercolour leaves no room for mistakes.
You've got some good shading in there, which is a very unforgiving, one-way process with watercolours. Great characterisation, pose and expression, too.
I want to combine them. Markers are bad for large areas because they streak. I may end up digitally combinding watercolor backdrops with marker drawings. Right now I'm just testing out how to watercolor.
This is really good. I read a lot of kid's books and always like ones illustrated with watercolor, and this is better than many, many illustrations I see.

I've been seeing you post here for a while now and I always dig your stuff. I like this one the most so far. Keep it up!

Nice work. I'd love to see a graphic novel done entirely in this style.

I was a bit thrown by the coincidence of the adjacent posts in my feed:

Your first try is awesome, it took me a while to get anything remotely close to your shading with watercolor.
I really like the look of this

Love it, how's it compared to your markers?
Are you considering switching to watercolor? It certainly looks fantastic with your style.
