The colors look very strange to me.  It kind of reminds me of those old
movies in black and white that are touched up with color.  The whole fish
looks like it is made in two tones (orange and off white).  Wouldn't real
clay have a bit more variety than that (I mean like a little variation in
the shades of orange because it dried differently)?  Maybe it would help the
overall appearance if it were on a textured plane instead of a white one.
