Ahh this took me so long! It's my first ever piece of soft shading with a background and I am pretty proud of it >w< It's not perfect but I tried so hard on it xD Especially the water reflection, it was really challenging but I had a lot of fun! I'm especially proud of this because I didn't look at any references for the pose and the anatomy looks pretty good ;w; So yeah. This is Syn my Betta Splenden character who I haven't drawn for months ^^; I wanted to do a bright background to contrast with his colours, I think it works well c:
