Melody,

I know you get constant requests for so many things in PYOs. I was just curious if you have thought about doing some PYO Koi or other fish? (I believe this might have been discussed in another thread a long time ago, but didn’t remember the outcome.) It seems like so many artists are doing so much with Ki-rins with their scales, I can only imagine what we would see with ‘real’ fish.

A fish with nice smooth scales… yeah, that’s a great idea!

Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.

Except that scales are a pain to paint. But hey, there’s no end of paint schemes for a koi! I’d buy ’em.

That would be cool. 😀 I concur! Koi! Or pufferfish… yess…

Pufferfish! 😆 With all the spikes out it would be a bit easier to paint than smooth-scaled koi, I think.

A PYO pufferfish… Now that just made my day. 8) If I gave my mother a handpainted fish of any kind I’d gather enough brownie points to last the rest of my life.

So yay fishes! 😆

I wonder how difficult it would be to cast and ship those… 😆 Yikes!

I can never get good pictures of mine, but here are some cuties. 😮 I’m not hijacking the thread, honest! *twitch*

Aren’t they cuties?
You do have a point about the casting, though… 😕

I have one that I planned to do in pewter, but it is small. I had also thought of doing some in cement for yard decorations… koi swimming over your lawn… that would be nice.

Oh cement koi. That would be cool. If only I had a yard. Oh well, I’m sure it would look great on a balcony too.

I live in an apartment. If I ever do get the Rock Dragons I plan on keeping them inside. I have crackheads and theives for neighbors. After my last Windstone addition, I am almost scared to leave the house! 😆
So, the koi will have to swim in the living room! 😆 😆
I love Koi…I’d buy cement Koi from you Melody!!! 😀
