[wip] Betta

pikaole

Oh yeah, veil tail betta is the most popular betta :D

N.

These are so pretty! I had a Betta fish when I was a kid, and it looked a lot like the red veil tail.

pikaole

Oh, I know i know. I also sometimes miss some of fish with unique personalities that I raised... The Corydoras I raise have a long lifespan, so I have long memories with them.

HuskyMom

Tysm! I miss my very first betta I had. He was the most unique and had his own personality than the others I've had. He also lived fairly long I think. I love all the bettas you drew. There are so much more different color variations

pikaole

Oh, there were many kinds. I'm glad I drew some of them XD. I wish your new future betta to be healthy, happy and live long with you🥰

HuskyMom

Ive had several throughout my life. When i was going to college I had 2, one was veil tail, other was delta tail. When I lost them, i didnt get another til years later. I got an all white one that had a tinge of pink. Then again years later i got a bumblebee. I had also another pretty one but i forgot which one it was lol. I want to get another one soon. Its been a while.

pikaole

OMG🥰💕 Thank you so much for saying so! 💕💕

Tony Richmond

My goodness, these are some of the most beautiful fish you've ever drawn. The shading and the colors are spectacular. These are so gorgeous I can't even handle it 😭

pikaole

Thank you so much Terrence!

Omgggg I love thissss

CaptainMirage

I'm just glad there is a rise in teaching people proper fish care and what they need!

pikaole

Haha yes that's right, I've been drawing fish all the time, trying different styles 😁 Drawing several animals in one frame at the same time and starting to make sticker packs, it has become a simple style now, but it may change again in the future??

pikaole

Thank you!

pikaole

Yes, and low price, low knowledge, people seem to buy it easily without sufficient preparation. I'm so sad..

pikaole

Thanks Huskymom, What kind of betta did you had?

pikaole

Me too! Thank you so much Moonling :D

Ellie Baines

Lovely!!!

CaptainMirage

Which they arent! They're living- water-breathing being. They dont deserve this treatment

Ash

These are so beautiful! Your style has changed so much from the betta fish you used to draw YEARS ago haha It's fun to see. I love betta fish - I might not keep them anymore as pets but they are so beautiful and fun and full of personality. There's so many beautiful variations <3 Plakats are probs my fav

pd

Seriously, just because they don't make noise we can hear, people assume they are decoration :'(

HuskyMom

Awww i love bettas so much! Ive had bettas before. I miss them!

Moonling

I love the different bettas so much! They are so beautiful! 😍❤️

CaptainMirage

It happens more to fish because usually people arent educated enough that fish has certain needs that must be met and you cant just throw them in a 1L water tank and call it a day 😅

pikaole

Yes, this happens to many animals, but it seems to happen more often with fish. I get upset every time I see it T_T

pikaole

Thank you so much Malika! Glad you like my new betta art too XD

Malika Alaska

More betta art from you!! I love this one! Reminds me of your older ones :)

CaptainMirage

It is so sad. Sometimes its people geuinely not being informed, and other times its them not caring because "I can get a new one". Its heartbreaking

pikaole

Yes, it always hurts my heart to see so many fish growing in small cups that not even tank,, don't have filtration facilities.

CaptainMirage

Bettas are such beautiful ones! But often so mitreated :(

pikaole
