Red Eyes Green Gator

I've been thinking about shading and highlighting. This picture was made using some ideas I've been thinking about. This didn't take that long to shade, and I'm thankful. I'm still trying to find faster ways to produce lights and darks I can be happy with. This seems like a good step in the right direction.

I also wanted to draw the body doing something I've never drawn it in before. I did that after some 20-something reference pictures.
