Are you familiar with Gyotaku? The ancient Japanese art of using an inked fish to print on rice paper. I decided to try CLAY-taku :lol: I picked up a dead Tilapia at the market and rolled a slab of clay over it. Here it is, appropriately laying on old newspaper :lol: It didn't pick up as much detail from the scales as I had hoped, we'll see what it does.
