From the research I did recently on alligator/crocodile illustrations from Pinterest, I decided to have a go at copying these styles in Illustrator to see if I liked any of the styles or techniques. I really like the style of the first image and I feel that the quality is much better with this one. I had to use photoshop effects to recreate the watercolour effects however this appeared to really blur the illustration as a whole and I want to keep my illustrations sharp. I think I am going to develop this style further in different positions and different appearance.
