Sassy Fish





In celebration of my fancy new tablet and my fancy new paint program, I have made a fancy painting!

When I said I was going to do this, Jen said I must draw/paint a sassy fish with a top hat.  I spent a lot of time testing out various tools and brushes and preliminary sketches and my previous fish looked like garbage, but I'm pretty happy with how this one turned out.  I decided to stick with wet oils.  Much to explore with this program, weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

By the way, for anyone interested, I painted this in Corel Painter 12.



Anyhow, this is your update for the week.  Enjoy!

Hey there

I think your fish drawing is great! Totally random request here, but would you be willing to let me use it on a t-shirt?

I like getting once off t-shirts made up every now and then - for some reason I decided a fish with a top hat would be my next one (odd, I know). Normally I'd design the whole thing myself but when I came across yours it was exactly I had in mind!

This would just be a once off t-shirt to be worn by me only. I wouldn't be making any money from it or anything.

Please let me know if you'd be ok with this. I promise I won't do it if you're not.

Thanks very much!

You are most certainly welcome to make not just one, but as many sassy fish t-shirts as you like!!!! (of course, if you were making actual profit, I would like a little cut)

So yeah, go right on ahead my friend. And if you wouldn't mind, would you be willing to take a picture of yourself wearing the shirt once you've made it and send it to me? (steve at slightlyorange dot com)

Thanks!

I don't spose you have a slightly larger version? Blowing that up to t-shirt size is likely to lead to one pixelly fish!

Will definitely send you a picture of me in the shirt once done.

By the way, am loving your 'Ninja Turtles' cartoons. Hilarious! Chris bears an uncanny resemblance to me as it so happens
