Colored pencils are ideal for adding varied textures to the otter's fur and fine details to the shell. Watercolor pencils can create lovely, soft washes for the water, while gel pens can add subtle highlights to the ripples or shell surface.
Start by outlining the otter and shell gently to establish boundaries. Use light, even pressure for smooth coverage in larger areas like the water. Choose a simple palette of 3-4 colors for the main elements. Take short breaks to keep your hand steady and prevent fatigue.
Utilize cross-hatching to suggest the otter's fur texture, varying pressure for depth. Employ color blending for smooth transitions in the water, creating subtle gradients from light to dark. Experiment with light layering for the shell to give it a realistic, polished appearance.
