Koi - Betta hybrid fish

Thank you, everyone for looking at/faving/commenting on this picture over the years, but I have changed accounts, and thus, will no longer be answering comments here. I'm sorry, but if you need to reach me, I can easily be found at my new account =EtoilesUnlaced. :]




Err...Well. I decided a while ago that I wanted a koi tattoo...But I hadn't been able to find any designs that I liked, so I started to draw them myself. x.o; And um...Apparently I don't like orange and yellow all that much, so they keep turning into Betta/Japanese Fighting Fish...fish. x.x; This one happens to still have koi whisker things.

Pretend like I wasn't too lazy to hook up my scanner, so I DIDN'T just take a picture of it with my camera so the paper looks yellow/grey/dingy and such. Yep. I didn't do that. At all.

A picture of the actual tattoo is here: [link]

::EDIT!!!::
This deviation has been ripped off. So I'm asking as a favour if you see anyone with [link] ed, or anyone else with this picture, please point them to this picture or let me know. I'm really glad that so many people like my fishy here, but I really don't want anyone else using it without my permission. I actually have this tattooed on me, and it is not free flash art for anyone who wants it to copy and put into their gallery. Really, I'm a pretty laid back person, and if you wanted to use it, all you would have to do is ask.

Again, thank you all for your continued support, and I have already alerted the DA admins who handle this sort of thing to the situation, so bug him at your own risk. This is my disclaimer. .____.; I just wanted to let everyone know that I would really prefer to be credited by anyone who wants to use this drawing.
