Ghost knife fish WIP (Patreon)

One day, I thought about why the Ghost knife fish had this kind of name.

South American natives believe that the ghosts of the departed take up residence in these fish. 

• References : (Wikipedia) Black Ghost Knifefish 

The keywords are literally "ghost" and "knife".

Main character is fish of course.

Both are very scary keywords, but I wanted to express it mysteriously.

They seem to change their fin movements in the direction they are going.

I made the fins move toward the face. Because face is the focal point.

Except for fish and center knife, it is gray tone.

I used Magenta pink because the red color reminds people of blood. 

It's as strong as red, but it feels like a little fake blood.

Also pink is well match with purple of fish.

I thought about the gloss moved clockwise along the perimeter of the fish.

The fish bones will appear with a slight spark in short moment

Thanks for watching!
