Snook variations

When snook are pulled from the water they are a silvery gray from the tip of the tail to the tip of their mouth.  I decided to experiment a little with color, however, since I was hand coloring.

Snook relief block #1 - color variations.  Ranger black ink and watercolor paint on Strathmore 300 series mixed media paper.
I decided to try a cooler combination of colors on the second color trial and compare the two.

Snook relief block #2 - color variations.  Ranger black ink and water color paint on Strathmore 300 series mixed media paper.
While neither set of colors is true to the real coloring of real snook, each set conveys a different tone and message and could be used in different situations.  I want to combine these block in one printing next.
