its not necessarily bad luck to have it swimming down- the story of the koi is that it swims up stream to find itself (for the most part) and then begins turning into a dragon, which then leads us to the swimming down koi-- could have the dragon's head or just the normal koi- swimming down would simply mean you already found what you are looking for in life...or you are content with who you are... (i tattoo, and trust that ive had to research this before lol- not to mention in some cultures its always swimming up for "good luck" and in others always down for the same reasoning!)

Looks really good. It's very unusual and different to the standard koi!

Haha thank you I had thought about red for the cotrast idea, then I had also thought about maybe an orange? :S The bullet's colors will be the hardest.. I'm working with a 12 color set of Crayola map pencils. That's all I've ever used on those other color pix as well:S But thanks for the input, and and the famous fruits post made me chuckle a bit, Marilyn Monroe looks strange in orange! lol But nice work though
