It is sad that my pictures usually look better when they aren't colored. =/ How do you guys get your smooth, liquidy coloring? Is it your mad skillz, or a secret button..? o.o;;

I think your shading looks good! the only thing i think that makes this picture look a lil odd is the eyes have no pupils and have the white on the inside instead of the outside Oo....

i dunno about everyone else but i use pen for lineart, and then pen on the next layer down to get the base colors and then the watercolor 2 tool to shade. using lots of the dropper (i think its ctrl.. or right-click.. or something..) helps blend colors. and in advanced mode (check your settings) you can right click on the color bars and get h/s/b instead of insane color bars.

Okie, I think I get what you're saying, Mazi.
Thanks for the critique, Edward! :) Yah, I draw my eyes pretty funky, heh.
