thankyou - i was just very lucky with the initial fractal shape that got generated from a random batch and with the gradient colours on it for me to spot the fish shape - there is an image of the solo koi somewhere about - but i couldn't leave him lonely so i made a shoal

Holy Shnikies, Rockgem! It looks like a painting! It's a beautiful thing.
(and, if it's not a rude question... how well do your prints sell? I'm only asking because I'm considering starting prints, myself, and I want to know if it's worth it.)

lolthankyou for the compliment on the piece - but yup it is done with fractals and photoshop - same fish as in my 'solo koi' piece but repeated a few times and the colour altered

and nope its not a rude question at all.
i've only ever sold one print through DA and thats of my 'moonlight' pic a group of fractal bats so to speak - but i have a habit of posting prints to my friends anyways -I'm too nice i should make em pay haha some say its not worth it some says it is - i dunno luck of the draw i guess

It's probably just an advertising issue. Thanks, though.

probably i have no idea - also unless ya got a print subscription - your work isn't automatically counted as a print unless someone wants to buy it - then its checked over and given the seal of approval and the like

It would be cool if you put water ripples in it. But cool!

rockgem In reply to Luna-Realm [2009-06-18 10:51:34 +0000 UTC]

i did try with ripples and even a few water lilies but it seemed too over crowded so i left it as just the koi
