Drawing a child sea turtle

Hello friends!
I share with you my recent drawing made for my cousin and godson Gabriel, who asked me to draw a baby sea turtle ... He is a very noble child, he loves animals so much, especially turtles, he already has about 22 small since when the rainy season began the land softened and made the small ones go outdoors and they are still leaving <3, with a very hard land they could not leave and that caused them death ...
Well, I grabbed a sheet of paper and my colored pencils and began to draw, and after finishing, my godson also asked me to put some background but it was on the computer and more because I had seen working on digital designs for work, and well supervised me and told me the color I wanted and about 6 bubbles, but nothing, I wanted something simple ... =)
And here is the result that I hope you like =)

Drawing with background created in Photoshop.

Original drawing

Drawing process:

The tone of the eyes was painted first with light blue and then I added a dark blue tone, leaving the center clear to give the effect of volume, and on the white part I painted the edges of light gray to give shading ...

His body was painted first with green grass and then dark green.

Its lower shell painted it with a light yellow and then I added mustard color and finally clear sienna ... as for the upper carapace, I painted with a dark green leaving the middle lightly clear to add a yellowish color ...

For the effect of the background in Photoshop, I first clicked on the magic eraser to erase the original white background and add the gradient that is between a light blue and a bluish green. Then I added the circles to which I added the gradient with white and transparency ...
