Croberts008 has requested some of my art and here it is. I have found my art does looks quite flat and less attractive on camera then in real life. From left to right, a stippling platycerium ( looks more like a claw), a cross hatching hammer, a stippling aquatic snail , and a cross hachting salt and pepper Cory dora. I'll try and find more of my art later.

I really like the Corydoras, and have seen enough work of that style to be able to imagine how it looks when not in a photo. It's very cool.
You could do a series with different Corydoras species, and little tiny touches of colour depending on the species.
 
Whoa that style (stippling … and cross hatching ) is so awesome! Very cool work!
Stippling my speciality, cross hachting is quite new to me.
Love the snail one especially
The snail is my favourite as well. Here's the reference. ( Don't know where the back and white version is☹️)

Good idea. What species do you think would look cool, gold laser?
 
I was thinking Corydoras adolfoi or duplicareus, with just a hint of colour.
 
I've found some more of my art. The Cory and flower are from a few years ago. The rest is quite resent and mostly unfinished. From left to right a pencil masked Corydora , a pencil flower (maybe a orchid?) A (terrible) pastel mushroom (the small one is in oil pastel and the large one is in chalk pastels), the others are background for other art, I don't remember what it's called but it's when you put water then ink then salt on water colour paper wait for it to dry then use bleach and work an image into it. sorry if there a bit blurry my photography needs improving.

some how these two were left out.
The bottle is massively incomplete, it's by biggest project so far it's a mixture of stippling and cross hachting. The section you can see is the only section that's completed. The other image is a quick sketch mushroom done in fine liner.
