Yesss I have some too - one with the original ropes still on it and one without. Big ones, too.
My grandfather lives on the Pacific West Coast (Northern BC) and finds these all the time. He has a shed full of them, hanging from the ceiling too. Super cool when it's full of light.

Temeraire In reply to Ricefish [2008-08-02 23:18:37 +0000 UTC]
Yess - the ropes are this hand-woven stuff and have a super neat old texture, and it's all knotted into this web. Super cool. I've taken a picture of it if you want to see how the knots look - it's in my scraps.

Oh wow, as always you're detail is incredible, so intricate and vivid, especially in the scales and hair. Gosh, I truly do envy you skill with watercolors, I'm terrible at them xDD
Out of curiosity, what method do you use to paint (it looks like wet on wet)?

Thanks!
Nope, the card can't take much water, I have to use tiny amounts at a time. It dries in seconds, too...the background texture comes from a lotta layering, and some white pencil shading in the darker blue areas

TeniCola In reply to Ricefish [2008-07-31 03:06:36 +0000 UTC]
Oh, I see, well the effect is beautiful, nonetheless, and you must has incredible patience, even when it dries quickly. I prefer to practice with wet on dry, but I'm so impatient when it's drying so I usually mess it up ;u;

poor fish, they're so cute with their..uh...supersmiles. -SHOT- I wonder...what he's going to do at the shipwreck? find more ornaments for himself, perhaps? -points at the...what look like floaty buoys orsomething hanging from his "neck"-
even though they're a bugger to paint, you sure made the scales pretty *w*

Arrr, I always forget to close my window...then I open my bigger window to chase them out and more get in! xD
Sometimes I turn around from my computer just in time to see a bunch of moths making their way up the outside of the glass...I leap up and slam the window shut, and victory is mine! 8D
Thank you! <3
