First fish drawing, quick sketch so far
 

I'm 17 and have been in talented art since 4th grade until my sophomore year in high school and have pretty much given it up all together since then. Was really bored earlier so I decided to take out the paper and draw something I'm interested in to see if I'd enjoy it again. So I looked up pictures of bass and about 20 minutes later, this is what I had

I know the photo quality isn't all there, it was with my phone

ummm thats pretty damn good

Nice Work

Dude! That's fantastic!

Thats 20 min worth??? Wow dude you got talent...

Thanks guys. And yeah, 20-30 minutes. If I'm bored enough and interested enough, I can get a lot more finished a lot faster. I've had some paintings take months and some take a couple days, just depends how interested I am I guess haha. But thanks!

Nice work

mad skills man

Need to do some trout and reds. Frame that and sell em. Looks excellent

Yeh a big trout inhaling a maniac mullet would be sick!

You make a trout hitting a topwater and i buy it for sure. That picture is awesome

U need an adderall and a pencil. U would throw out some art. That looks good.

lmao

Very nice looking photo

Jeez, wasn't expecting this! Thanks guys! What's a maniac mullet? I searched it but found pictures of like 4 different lures. And I'll sketch up some more tomorrow and post them up. Suggestions anyone? Besides the two trout? Jumping, swimming, etc. still need to finish this one! Haha

Trout with head out of water with topwater in it's mouth.

I'll sketch one tomorrow! Any good or intersting looking trout top waters I could look up? Ive never been trout fishing so not sure what you'd use

Search for some of Salty's posts. He has some pics of the baits he paints

Search Heddon Super Spook
Maniac Mullet go to TidalSurgelures.com

Man that looks good

Keep it up youngster, you could be the next Guy Harvey

That's real good.

That is good work. Very impressive for no more time than it took.

A big trout after a croaker
A big trout blowing up a spook jr
A big trout with a pink corky hanging out of its mouth.

And of course they all have to be Texas size trout ;)

Thats means you can draw it life size on an 8x11 paper;)

Hahaha swamp snorkler.... Good one.

This is where I'm at so far. Kind of annoyed, was watching the Olympics and accidentally grabbed a charcoal pencil without realizing. That is why the back is so dark. Need to try and fix it then put in the scales when I get enough time.

Another I just did

can you draw a person...say one from this site?? hes got plenty of pics lol



Great job by the way!

And a new one in the workings... Nowhere near complete, just a 20-30 minute rough sketch. Dogs are much harder to get in proportion than fish! Lol
Still thinking of background ideas, just lightly sketched that one to see what'd itd be like

Nice!! Are you looking off a pic or drawing out your head? If thats out your head, thats SUPER RIDICULOUSLY GOOD!

The giraffe was copied off a picture along with the fish, the fish was changed a tad. The dog was about 15 images of different labs put together for reference which led me to that then just put a dead duck in the mouth

I haven't tried a person since 6th grade. This was the last one I did

Took about 3 months and it's not very realistic. I'm sure I could, it would just take longer and a lot of frustration. I don't really understand the question though! Do you mean like draw a person you know?

And thanks!

is that a black bellied fulverous squealing mexican whistling duck in that dogs mouth??

:D

Another nice one in works keep it up!

Yes but you don't need a very large paper...we can call it minimalist art...lol!!


again that is very cool, my have yourself a hobby!

As of now, it's a mallard! Haha

Thanks!

That's actually on a piece of plywood we had laying around lol

But like I said, I can always try!

Squeastling duck, lol.

I laughed for a while when you put that in the other thread, from now on that's what I'm calling them.

Awesome

That's him, Daniel. :smokin:

Looks good. We may have a SC version of Guy Harvey

Thank y'all!
I was gonna start the speckled trout today but couldn't find near enough reference pictures to start since I'm not all that familiar with the fish so if any of y'all have some good pictures and close ups they would be appreciated!

Google It. That way you get one your comfortable drawing.

Those drawings are CRAZY good!!!

I tried, maybe I don't know how to use google correctly but the only images that came up where either fish In an ice chest or people holding their catches. I was looking more for like swimming pictures or close ups. I'm doing my own drawing from my head, not copying a picture so I just need details in the gills and teeth and such. I'll look around more tomorrow when I have more time. Sure I'll find something to work with!

Here are some ideas
