Time, for, bed, stories, fish

DanLundberg says:

Sweet, but the child doesm't look like a fish (as it has a distinct skull oriented 90 degrees from the neck) and what's with her headgear? The orange flame-like thing in the background distracts by being the same color as the central characters.

author says:

As I didn't get the little one's head right I had to go with a cap/headgear. I tried to fix the head but in vain And the flame-like thing is the tail .

Funny....by the way, Dan --- that orange "flame-like thing" is the goldfish's tail and this photo would look strange if she didn't have one!

Sweet, author!

Drivenslush says:

I love the pretty tail !!!! good luck author

samanway says:

Superb drawing skills & nice tail .GL

pearlie says:

It's most obviously a tail to me. I like her little hat, she must be a newborn - got a pic of my neighbors' new baby girl with a similar hat. Sweet image and fine painting, author!

Chalty669 says:

overall a nice image. A couple of nitpicks would be for some of the edges to be a bit sharper and for the catchlights in the eyes to be a bit brighter. Good Luck Author!

author says:

Thanks for the suggestion. I fixed as much I could in the little time I had,as I am busy. I brightened the catch lights in the little one's eyes and left the big guy's eyes as it is since I want his eyes to be weary and dull.

Gorgeous! I love the glazed look on the grandparent's face opposed to the perky wide-awake expression on the little one. The tail looks really good and balances the picture perfectly.

author says:

Wide-awake expression was exactly what I had in mind while painting the little one's eyes. I am glad that I accomplished that. . Thanks a lot for the comment and fav.

Keiley22 says:

amazing work author, i love the colouring of this image and my 6 year old just asked where fish get books from lmao

author says:

I really don't know what I would tell a 6 year old if I were asked that. Thinking hat on.... I would lie to them that the fish got it from an underwater bookstore just like we lie about tooth fairies. I guess there is no harm in that right?

My take on the old science fiction pulp magazines from a bygone era. This cover would fit into the late 1940s-early 1950s. Some of the greatest SF stories of all time were written then. I wish I still had my old copies! The anthology of the best of the best from this era is ADVENTURES IN TIME & SPACE, edited by Healy & McComas. Movies like The Thing and The Day the Earth Stood Still were made from these stories. It's still in print, so get a copy for great reading!
Go here to see some of the fabulous old covers: http://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&hl=en&source=hp&biw=1684&bih=1010&q=amazing+stories+covers&gbv=2&oq=amazing+stories+covers&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=s&gs_upl=0l0l0l1829l0l0l0l0l0l0l0l0ll0l0
