Baby Sanke Art

My Christmas babies are such little cutie pies I just have to share. Took the pics today and worked on a few--the children are four, maybe five inches now...








(This last one is really trying to impersonate Showa in a big way...even developing sumi on its little beak)

I am amazed at what you can do. Such talent. I'm envious. I tried to make my Lucky #13 into the future Lucky 13 shiro and couldn't do anything with her.

Yesterday, I did take apart two laptops that weren't working and made one that does. I guess I have an analytical mind, not a artistic mind. Or do I even have a mind?

Great work...

*LOL* I can't even manage to get my gallery and store put together. I pay for it every month, but it's collecting virtual dust, I am so html challenged...

Thanks Mike

You know, I've looked and looked and looked at Lucky #13 while waiting through the rounds, but the sumi is so in transition it's really hard to see anything, other than there's a lot of it under there. Is it disappearing? Is it coming up? Will it emerge or lay dormant for years while the shiroji thickens? I think we'll have a better idea once you get it home and take some more pics. I suspect it'll be further through its transformation by then so we can see something.

I wish I could help with this one. Best I can do is take out the fluorescent lighting (yellow tints the whole pic) so you can better see the quality of its skin.

Sangreaal, thanks for looking at it. I'll just wait as it will be home in a couple of weeks.

I'm hoping the sumi is coming up, at least that is what I was betting on with my choice, but only time will tell. I think it will be a great fish one day and I'm looking forward to watching all the changes. Our water here is pretty hard so the sumi will be enhanced here better than other places.
