Different types of faces go in and out of fashion. The ideal face depicted by an illustrator now might look more like a kardashian.

Thanks for posting this. I was having a really hard time believing this was a painting. Wow. I hate having to be so skeptical. This is very impressive.

This is a wonderful mix of...styles and periods...and all sorts. Like glam rock vs classicism. I love it. You look amazing.

Thank you, what a lovely comment!

Thank you very much! I was worried I’d overworked this one a bit.

Beautiful 🥰 Something tells me you're into Prog

Yeah, you captured the moment. I'm there.

There is a wooden jigsaw puzzle by Artifact Puzzles coming out within the next 6 months

Post this on /r/bettas and watch them flip shit over the tank size.

This is so nice and wierdly nostalgic

My first thought was, "no way..." and then I found a video of him 'finishing' a piece that made me think maybe it was a photograph or something... with a glaze... so I poked around more... holy crap - it's real!

He does a progress piece around the 1:10 mark.

I wish I could get this on a poster somehow! What a wonderful painting

That's an outstanding illustration. You have paid attention to each an every aspect in the frame. The color of the vapors has been beautifully crafted. The dark orange color from the molten larva looks realistic.

Fantastic piece of art!

Bare minimum. I'd rather they be in a 10 gallon. But 5 gallons is the bare minimum, and not abuse. It's like how you can can keep an angelfish in a 20 gallon, but it would be better to have it in 29 and up.

Large male bettas definitely need a 10 gallon, I'll give you that. Females and smaller males will be ok in a 5. Every professional aquarist on earth would agree with me that the bare minimum is 5, and that people who otherwise are elitists. People who like to wave their moral superiority over others.

Ok, call me elitist then. But 5g is too small for a male betta for an extended period of time. 10g should be the bare minimum long term home for them and a 20g long is preferable.

They are territorial and explore and swim around a lot and 5g just does not give them enough space to do that.

Wild. Just fucking wild.

Kudos to all of your hard work and practice.

There is far too little underboob in these times of ours.
