Pisces.....

Postby sparrow8 » Thu Jun 28, 2012 1:03 pm

This is based on a friend's fish, named Pisces. He is an absolutely beautiful betta Here's the reference pic.

I needed to draw something for me and when I saw my friend's photo of her fish I had to try and draw him! Hope you like it! :)



Ooooh, thanks for the feature! :) :)

FYI-Since I work fulltime,
I may only be able to do maybe 1-2
commissions at a time depending on
how busy things are here. Please
be patient as it may take some time
for me to get them finished as well.

I'm already booked solid so I can't take
any new commissions at this time.

Thank you! :)
voidrabbit is my kid and we
trade sometimes. We try to keep it fair. :)

Your colour usage makes this picture so beautiful it's not even funny.
The strokes and flow of this makes it entirely relaxed and relaxing as well.
Visual poetry.

The use of colors is just overbearing; I adore the green and blue. I feel relaxed when I look at this picture, and I feel as if I could just reach in the picture and touch this beautiful fish. You did an excellent job on the texture. xx

Wow, what a gorgeous fish. It's no wonder you chose to draw him. Those colours! And oh my gosh, the dark background with the pale green light was a perfect choice, it makes the drawing so darn beautiful. I was instantly reminded of the fish scenes in Disney's 'Fantasia'. I see lots of improvement since your first attempt at a Betta. The fins and tail are 'wow'. I know that wasn't easy to do with all those colours and curls and wrinkles and creases! Incredible job as always, sparrow.
Sorry, I'm not taking art commissions or requests.

If you send me a PM and I don't answer it, please don't take it personally. I tend to read them with the intent of replying later...and then I forget. Bear with me, it's a horrible habit that I'm trying to break.
