Baby Yoda drawing in watercolor.

Hello everyone, my first post in the community and I think it will fit nicely in here.
I decided to draw baby Yoda in watercolor to dust off my watercolor skills - haven't done anything in mostly watercolor in years. It turned out I was quite rusty but it is what it is and I hope you enjoy the drawing as much as I did creating it, it was a ton of fun. I used a few different references from pinterest for the character.

Sadly I forgot to snap a few pictures during the initial sketch so I got it from about half way done:

It is also my first time doing a stretched paper and the masking tape thing for a frame so a lot of experimentation going on (ignore the gnarly cardboard cutout it was all I had lying around my home). I started with doing the space because if it did not work I would have had to scrap it and start over, but to my surprise it worked out nicely, at least in my opinion that is. I am open to any suggestions or tips on improving, they will be much appreciated.
Since the space was ok I started with the colors in the character and adding a little color for the landscape and foreground.

The foreground was looking a bit empty so I decided to add some rocks/rocky texture just as an accent, I am not sure how I did on that it is another thing I am doing for the first time. The face gave me a real headache. I think it is because the paper I used is only 25% cotton I got some nasty scratches and tears when I tried going in for the fine details with my colored pencils. I am used to sharpening them to a fine point but I guess it was a mistake for this paper? Anyway I switched to some fine liner and it worked out better.

And here is the final piece with the tape off:

I am really glad with the final result I hope that some of you will like it too. Once again any constructive criticism is welcome being on the character itself or the technique all is wellcome.

Thank you very much if you took the time of your day to check out my post and have an amazing day !
