Description Some new Betta fish pendants are up for sale!

Recently I bought some new chameleon pigments to experiment with. To sum up, the pigment looks like different colors depending on which way the light hits them. Some of them the shifts were really subtle, but the shift in this one is a little more obvious, going from a pink/red to a gold/yellow. Also, I think I've finally figured out some decent ways of photographing the chameleon paint! Usually the highlights end up washing out all the color, especially on the secondary color of the pigment, but the photos of my recent shifts have been looking better

Pendant Info:
This fish measures about 1.25 in tall and 2 in long. It's cast in a sturdy resin which is hand painted (by me, the artist who sculpted them) in acrylic, pastel, and a special chameleon pigment which gives it that metallic red/gold sheen. You can be sure that much love and time is invested in your pendant! Afterwords, pendants are sealed in a protective varnish, and will each come with a necklace cord that best matches the color of the pendant. In this case it comes with a black and red ribbon necklace to match that flowing, elegant style which Betta fish tend to have. My pendants are all full, in the round sculptures, so when they're not in use, they make a great decoration. If you're looking for a piece of jewelry you can't find anywhere else, this is truly a unique pendant

To be honest, guppies have more colourful fins than a combination of red, orange and yellow.

Your design is unique, but it doesn't look appealing in terms of anatomy and colour.

Guppies do have interesting color combos. Of course, I wasn't going for guppy in this one, but it might be fun to try that color combo on one of these sometime! In what way does it not look appealing? The pose? The details? Are you speaking from a critique point of view, or a subjective point of view? This one's an older sculpture, so I won't be doing changes to the base sculpture and have made my own notes for future sculpts. Of course, I don't mind critiques at all and if you have more details on what you're thinking, I would be open to hearing! Just keep in mind, if you do critique, more specific reasoning backed up with art knowledge is greatly appreciated so that I can use the critique to improve.
