non-horse watercolor pencil

This is my first attempt at using watercolor pencils. I've been wanting to add some color to my drawings and gave these a try on this lion cub. It's not my favorite piece I've done, but I'm happy with it. You can see the work-in-progress on the Artist Forum:

It came out awesome!!! Makes me wanna try out water color pencil. What advice can you give about using watercolor pencils?

Very nice. They make water color pencils? That's pretty neat.

Thanks Equusketch! The only advice I can give is to be really careful when adding water. It's really easy to add too much and just turn everything to mud. I built up all my layers of color first and used an old, stiff paintbrush which worked pretty well since it couldn't get too saturated. I'm told that they make a special paintbrush for these pencils, too, that I'm going to check into since I'll probably use them again. :)

Thanks armydogs, yes, they're really neat, too! It's fun to watch the colors get so rich and vibrant after adding water. :)

I really like it! Turned out very nice!

Thanks (TLA)! ;)

Lol I couldn't help it. Had to comment on it here too!

Let's see... the first & last time I tried water color was... in highschool! Lol I can say I neither liked nor disliked it but you obviously have alot of talent with it! ;)LOVE the eyes!

Thank you! You're the one who inspired me to try something in color. :)
