O my gosh it looks so real. I have a pet fish too. Except Im not even good enough to draw a goldfish cracker!?

very good

Beautiful :) I will take a dozen please :)

This is lovely! The detail is amazing. I love how you made it look shiney *_*. The background is very nice too.

Such a pretty fish and a wonderful rendition of it... I'd rather hook'em and Bill Dance'm into the boat, but... :)
I love the way you got the colors and the texture and everything so perfect.

silver $'s arn't for eating they only get 6 inches long and they are flat like a pancake not even enough meat on them to justify the effort of cooking ^_^ i like pancakes and fish but not together XP

I know.... I prefer catfish and shark, myself... I just meant "petting" fish in general is not my thing. I don't like pancakes at all.... they are toooooo sweet and they'll make you fat and slow. (Although I do make pancakes for other people, and mine are not flat... they are FLUFFY :D)

(You could have pancakes with your fish... you could feed him and pull up a chair and have pancakes while he eats... just a thought :)

that fishie is awsome!! i wish i had 1 lol id prolly feed it to other fishies lol*evil grin* lol^-^

Yeah, it looks a little like the ones I cut up with my pocket knife over a floating bait bucket to make sure I collect the blood that spills (fish don't have a lot of blood, but they do have some)... tie it around my waist and swim out with my fishing pole, wait for the blood to attract the sharks and start reeling them in. It's a fish eat fish world, I'm tellin' ya. (Here's a good fishing tip, though..., and you won't hear it from the pros. Don't wear really bright toenail polish... especially coral or hot pink... the sparkley kind is the worst... the fish are attracted to it... I noticed after the fact that some lures are even made that color. It's really annoying in fresh water, but in salt water you could lose your toes... or your feet... or your legs and stuff.

I wouldn't be giving all this fishing advice here if this were a "crappie" picture. (haha pun intended... if you don't get it I'm not explaining it) :) Very nice job on the pretty fish... they are hard to do realistically.

this is awesome! a whole lot better than that horrible anime you draw!

A very lovable fish you have (I have a couple myself). The lighting is very well done, it looks very real.

why hello fishie!

This is really adorable........:]
Does really looks so real, and your fish is really cute as well.......:D
...........Logging of Lore.V.........

REally well done!!! This is excellent!

Awesome details..The head is particularly realistic..

That's not very nice hideyourface I like drawing anime better I find it relaxing. I can draw without going into realistic detail and I know my anime art isn't perfect the fact is I don't put nearly as much effort into it as I would a realistic drawing but I like to draw it. That's why my user board has such a variety of stuff on it
And thanks all for the nice comments on my fish he’s happy to read them all and he’s eying me at the moment wanting to be fed so I had better go and feed him.

Crazy texture on that fish. As mentioned great detail.

Yeah, I'm really liking the texture on this thing. Very good.

Lovely silvery fishie. I don't like fish myself (If you can't pet it I don't want it) but this ones quite a pretty thing.

You don't need to explain what you draw and why you draw it to hideyourface. If it makes you happy just "do it". You can paint a fish and he can't.

Wow, I'm salivating! The light source is captured beautifully on the top side of the fish and the left half of the fish is rendered extremely realistically... well done! :)

Sweetcell: At least the fish won't leave presents all over the house for you to clean up!

yes but they do leave presents in the water for the filter to get and then you have to clean the filter XP I just did that too nasty job
