quick ideas for sad and concerned fish

Rough value sketch, before picking a better fish

Finished painting with photoshop finishing touches. 

This was an overnight gig for The Weekly Standard. More of a feat of creating believable atmosphere than anything really clever, but super fun to work on nonetheless.

It amazes me how you churn this stuff out overnight and still maintain this level of execution.

Hey! Thanks Chris! I'll admit that a lot of it is time. I'm sure there are faster ways to get this done, but as much as I would like to learn on the job, it scares the crap outta me. So, instead, be it a $400 job or a $1000, I end up beating myself up sleepwise.
