I love fish and have been meaning to make a little tank for sometime so I definately want some critiques on this piece... (be mean but not TOO mean lol) I originally did the gravel in blue... I dunno if I like the brown but  I am quite fond of the goldfishes and plan to animate them later... I am thinking of adding an animated bubble wand in the back... but for now... what do you think? color scheme good/bad? are the props ugly? How can I make the front look more like glass...  tell me whats wrong with it!

Well alot of fish tanks have fake backgrounds so feel free to throw one in if you feel like it. Those rocks look a bit outlined too dark near the top area. Mjaybe add some rough spots on em. I like the fish themselves... good colour choices  You should animate them. Plant life looks good but maybe give em some AAing when you've added water and the fish and everything. As floor the glass on the fornt, give it some squiggly highlighting lines to add sheen.

Hope this helps

make the back panel a little darker and add some sharp diagonall white lines across everything in the front! Looks good!

Oh, you could add  little treasure chest that opens up and spits out bubbles!
I swear, adjustable waistbands are going to take over the world...
