"Beating The Heat" Challenge

With the coming heat of summer lets take a look at that, that can cool us down! From ice cream to lemonade to soda lets appreciate that in coming months (man you couldn't even go a cooling river!) but the most important thing is beating the heat in the coming warmer months and let's see what y'all take from this prompt!

Those who have opted out:

~Requirements~

1.)Your design must be based on keeping cool
2.) You must include a reference if there is one plus an explanation for how you beat the heat with this thing.
3.) Your design must be about beating the heat in some way, from ice cream, cold drinks, swimming, or even AC it just has to be a way to beat the summer heat.
4.) With in your design post, you must ping not only myself but the designer that posted directly before you only. Reason being, you must create a paragraph (3 to 4 sentences long) giving them friendly feedback and or suggestion on improvement on the design and or designs currently present at that time. Please include a copy of their design you are speaking about, along with a design of your own referencing the suggestions you made so they can see visibly what you are trying to say. (The only except is the first designer to post.)
4.) Designers, if someone critiques/comments on your design you must make an attempt to make the changes the critiquer is suggesting. It is through another's opinion/vision you can see what you haven't/couldn't see before and in so doing improve on what is already done. It is a way for you to learn how to take riskses and test yourself. When you have done so, place your altered piece next to the original so we can see the changes you made in comparison. (DO NOT COPY AND PASTE their direct suggested image and take it as your own. That will not help you improve in the slightest, but will be seen as a form of cheating/theft.)


~Rules/Guidelines~
1.) All core group rules are in play!
2.) Don't be afraid to ask for help, feedback and or anything. We are here for you!


~Example~


Whenever it gets super warm I like to swim! The river is quite cold and the best way in my opinion to escape the heatwaves of summer.

~Critique~
You have a very nice design and I like the use of the traits. My suggestion would be to lighten everything up because there are more lighter colors in the image than barker colors. I would also suggest changing EC to a white just to incorporate more white into the piece and appear more snowy.
Original -------> Critiqued


~Mango Dragon Fruit Lemonade~

This is my favorite Starbucks drink and since it is iced, it always refreshes me and cools me down.


~Lemonade~

This is the default summer drink in my family.

Critiqued


~Water Guns~

On really hot days, my family would have a water gun battle to cool down.


~Ice Cubes~

I just like to rub these on my face when it is too hot outside and inside.


~Paddle Board~

My family always goes paddle boarding together during the summer.


~Corey Lake~

This is where we would go paddle boarding.

Would have preferred G3 to be Galaxy or Stormy. With Flower it just doesn't look icy/water while with Galaxy or Stormy it looks better. Not sure why for M2 you used Arcanist Grab. It looks good, but I would have preferred Arctic Fur instead. And also instead of Victioran's Veil use Crystalline Ears instead.



Went to a Lake last summer. Some parts got deep, as represented by the darker and lighter shades of the mane. The flower is there because if you walk a bit you see some plants.
~Isn't the best image. Just found this on Google~

Critique
So first off the green's you chose are LOVELY. I did decide to change the grey to be more blue cause it made more sense for it to match the lake instead of the mountain's in the background. And i also brightened the yellow/tan color from the other leaves because of the way the light hits them making them brighter in the image. I can't express how spot on the green's are though and the traits feel perfect!


Critique For Zolnixi
First off , your design is really saturated a bright whereas the picture isn't so i dulled down the colors a bit but left the pink bright. I also played around with the browns and creams to make a more sandy feel. I do think the biggest thing that could be fixed is the shades of blue. There's so many different shades in the water and I feel like it's a good idea to take those and incorporate them into the design. So I tried that



Charcoal Ice Cream
I just really want to try this flavor SO BAD which is weird
Watch me struggle to add in the rainbow sprinkle/fruity pebbles

@Dragongem23
I really like how the other colors pop off the black fur color. I also like how the black makes the purple-brownish stand out but not to much where it is overbearing. I don't have anything to criticize because I think you did amazing job on this design.




I like going out at night and watch the stars because most nights are a lot cooler then the day time.
