“carps” are pretty hard in taking, so I believe they are allowed.
and cool piece 🙂 foxes and kois work well togheter 🙂
you must make more 🙂 felines with cois 🙂
as for the scetches, never ever throw them. I keep all my “better” ones (as in the ones I didnt draw in schoolbooks) in a huge folder and sell them online in batches or at Conventions (Eurofurence in the Dealers den). SOme are eventually destined to be trash and I give them away with other buys, but looking back I did receive a pretty amount for what what would have rotted beyond recognition by now… poor not loved artwork *points self “bad art mother”* found good homes which makes me happy.
I did change to better quality papers though , bought myself yellowlightbrown 120 gramm paper for scetching specifically.
