A sketch of my sister's goldfish, completed in 10 minutes.

What can I say? It's late.

Eh, you and your stupid multi-fantastically-talented family :P

:wave:

EDIT- ok, when I read that for some reason I thought it was a sketch done by your sister. So then, change "family" to "self"!

Really amazing, schind!

Thanks. I have lots more. Maybe if we ever get around to meeting I'll bring some along. I usually take my sketchbook everywhere with me anyway.

Any attempt by me would probably be most accurately described as "stick fish". Pretty easy since there are no arms or legs.

here's a tip, JB...if you find extremities difficult to draw, you can always pose your fish with his hands behind his back or in his pockets.

Only if it was a man fish. A woman fish would have a set of something else (that I can draw).

So, I have to add arms and legs to the fish so I can tie them behind its back or put them in its pockets?

Cool. And, just maybe, a little kinky.

Really?

I've spit melon seeds pretty far. Are you just letting fly with a big, old hocker or are you spitting an object?

Seriously, very nice sketch. I have no drawing abilities and stand in awe of those who do. It is a talent that is beyond my comprehension.

Well yes...I mean...eventually you will have the confidence to draw your fish with his hands showing

Good, but the fish is awesome. Those are sketches; the fish is art.

Dwain, are you being serious? I didn't like the fish that much, I just posted it because I was bored.

Dude, your fish is badass. A nice sketch-look to it, and consistent in style. I would frame it or try it again on nicer paper.

I also thought at first you said this was your sisters drawing, but I read it wrong...that's amazing that YOU did this! :)
