Thanks again chaps :)
  

Great fish, sensational splash!  :-* :o

Need to know how you did it, please.  ;D


The splash is laughably easy;

1. Some drops of super glue on baking paper (it won't stick when dry,you can peel it back).
2. Lengths of nylon fishing line stuck in the super glue at various angles.
3. Tiny pieces of cling wrap draped over the fishing line frame.
4. Paint on white glue,this softens the look and gives the structure some depth.
5. When the white glue is dry,trim until your happy with the look.
6. If you want to stick something in it or indeed over it ,drill with an pin vice(the super glue is nice and hard for this) and insert another piece fishing line,glue and cut to the appropriate length.
Done  :)

That looks excellent!...........I don't mind fish so long as the batter's crispy  :)

Why is it only figure painters actually like pre-raphaelite painting? Every pukka artist I've ever spoken to sort of sneers at them.

The pre-Raphaelites' code was something like:

1 have genuine ideas to express
2 study nature attentively
3 sympathise with what is direct and serious and heartfelt in previous art, exclude what is conventional and self-parodying and learned by rote
4 produce thoroughly good pictures and statues

I think a lot of "artists" sneer because they couldn't manage those four things.
Measure with a micrometer, mark with chalk, cut with an axe, hammer to fit, paint to match!

I thought you had to make something? You can't just submit a photo of a real place!  :)

Masterful work. Simply stunning.
