Artist's Comments

Got my scanner replaced today with a completely badass new Canon Pixma. Its a beast..to break it in I'm scanning this fish tattoo I'm doing for my sister..It'll go down the middle of her back. I have to change practically everything on it. The whiskers will come off and the fins will change to something less goldfish like..more like fairy wings. The only thing that will stay the same is the body for the most part...just though maybe someone would like to see it as is.

(Actually I'm not changing it at all now.)

UPDATE - I've uploaded a cleaner vector version next to the sketch. I didn't want to delete the original in case someone preferred it. On the right is my original sketch and on the left is the clean vector trace off. If you do get this as a tattoo all I ask is that you send me a picture PLZ! I would really like to see it :)

WARNING - If you're considering stealing this I would highly recommend rethinking it. I have been completely surprised as to how popular this image has become and never would have guessed prior to posting it on deviantART. I have received alot of notes from people asking to use it for personal tattoo's (which is fine), but I've also received a few emails from people notifying me of other artists who have been claiming this image as their drawing and tattooing it on people. I think art theft is highly pathetic. Someone will eventually recognize this from dA and you'll look like an idiot when you're caught.

Wow, that is something.:) I bet if you leaked it into public place, it'll become a new pop culture icon, like Kilroy Was Here.:D K, maybe I'm exaggurating, but I DO think it would become big.

A boring life is a straight path. If there are obstacles, you go off that path to go around. Then it aint straight anymore.
99.9 percent of people are like this. If your life isnt straight, then copy this sig and tell yourself life is good.

That's too bad you have to change most of the fish. I think it looks great as is. Very nice design. ^_^

Smokey : "Oh, THAT was a harem, alright! I know a harem when I see one!"
