Pink is a manly colour also!

Description

LOOK, I coloured with traditional media! It was a LOT of fun, despite the colours being too dark, but I am very happy. It was a lot of fun, and I'm rather surprised with the outcome!

So, long story short: I've been having a weeeeeeeird time lately; stress, work, bad conscience, thesis, bad weather, etc. So I decided to sit down and watch cartoons, and Treasure Planet was on that list.
So, this wasn't Disney's biggest hit, au contraire, but I find it highly underrated: The idea is brilliant, the characters are appealing and the interaction between each of them is very sweet and sincere.
So, I drew her; Mind you, she's not an OC, because I'm not going to be working with her. I just wanted to doodle down this... alien-thingie.

My original plan, (lower part of the piece) was to make her based on a tropical fish, but damn it, that face is beyond hard to draw; I tried, and she ended up like this.
Tentacle braided hair, pointed mouth, webbed fingers and such.

My biggest issue was her colours; I went through a large colour-palette and I'm still not sure; but I DO actually find the pink very appealing, despite it NOT being a colour I care much for. But it made her stand out very strong, and it seemed less... used, than blue, green and white.

So... Yeah. That's about it.
