Fish

This is a fish I was going to do for the challenge a while back but I bit off more than i could chew at that time! So I pulled out the old drawing and started again so here it is!

Yeah the fixed part was just the roundness with the added faces and way yeah there is still a lot of work on the eye to do! I need it to stick out and tilt forward some! Thanks for bringing it up Louis56 because i wasn't really paying any attention to it! Anyway looking at it again reminded me of what i intended for that shape when i drew it way back when! I think I drew it over two years ago so it has been a while!
I'm still working on the over all shape of the outside of the fish. When i get it where i won't be changing any of the outside anymore ill move into the mouth! Right now it is so much easier to select things with out the added mouth mesh in the way so thats why ill work all of that last. I started to a ways back and then decided not to for that reason. Thanks for the comments they are always welcome and wanted!

Reworked the eye some and added the first tenticle thingy by his mouth! I was looking forward to doing those for some reason! I also reworked some of the wire to clean it up a bit!

Some tiny adjustments and The last two tentacles added. I just need to fine tune and then i can start on the rest of the fins and the mouth and teeth. I can't wait to work on the mouth thats going to be a lot of fun! I started to think about the texture and color of it im excited about that too! This is the first full model i will have done so I'm pretty happy so far! This is just a quick mirror so i could look at. will do a complete mirror after i fine tune all the way!



Comments always welcome and wanted!
