Well I managed to finish a couple of fish today - although I am not sure what I will do with them. I need to make 5 charms for a swap - so I might use one of them towards the five.
They took a long time to paint and I had to leave them for hours and do them in stages
They are looking pale in the photograph.
In reality they are shades of silver, blue, and salmon - all metallic colours blended to show up the scales - and some 'dirty' brown mix of acrylic paint to add a bit of depth and interest to the segments.

Hi Lottie your fish look lovely, I can just see the hints of colour. They were my favourite ones when you showed them the other day. Glad your back crafting.Take care Hugs x ChrisB
These look so realistic! You're doing wonderful things with clay.
I love the metallic sheen-it catches the light just like real fish!
Wow Lottie, wish I could see them in real life, they look good on here, but would be lovely to see all the different shades that you've mentioned in the post.

Ooh, I bet they're gorgeous in real life, Lottie - love the way you segmented them. Excellent x
The sheen of different colours looks fab and I bet it looks even more life-like "in the flesh"!
Love these fish, they are amazing!!
