Trout are freshwater fish and have under water weapons.
Trout are very valuable and immensely powerful.

Are those pictures with the flash on? The green looks really bright but really sweet. Kepp it up.

yea its pretty impossible to take an accurate pic unless its out doorrs, in daylight wiith no flash.

none of the pictures so far look liek the real thing ! lol
the other problem is that the surface of the 'raw' artwork is on all different levels and textures. soem parts are extremly glossy and frsh, others are dull and flat. it really is a hard task to photograph progress like this.

and the flash... dont get me started lol !

Wow.

I hae to say - I subscribe to most of your threads.

Nicely done. :)
Really impressive artwork.

The strings at the handle of the shaft are an example to the rest of us of how good air-brushing can get.

Keep up the good work - I await your next post with anticipation. :)
