One Piece - Declaration of war (MY COLOURING)

Another One Piece colouring! I said I was going to do more but I'm sure taking my sweet time … Well, I'm just going through one of those periods when I don't get much done even though I want to. At least this is something, and it was a lot of fun to do <3

Although I was planning to colour this picture anyway, what really motivated me to finish it was so I could participate in anna-hiwatari's #opcoloringproject on Tumblr. I used my standard technique, watercolour pencils. My colouring turned out pretty similar to Oda's in terms of shading and lighting, but I wanted to go with my own colour choices, so the skin tones and outfits of the Straw Hats are different. Here is Oda' version: i37.tinypic.com/2m3lq8x.jpg (It is available in much better resolution in Color Walk 6: Gorilla, though, which I bought recently.)
