Your Koi drawing is getting very complicated, so now you need to erase all the extra lines. You should finish up
with something very similar to this.

Now add a little detail. Draw the spiky crest on the top of the head (use the semi-circle as a guide).
Next give your eyes more detail by drawing in pupils, adding upper eyelids and eyebrows. Directly under the
eyes draw on a small dot (this will be your Koi's nostrils). Lastly you need to finish off the mouth. Draw a
curved line for the lower lip. Inside that draw two semi-circles to form a tongue.

Your Koi should really be taking shape now. You will need to add more detail on the tail. Then use the hand shapes as a
guide to draw the webbed fingers of your Koi. Try to keep within the semi-circles. Then move up to the fins on
the top of the head. Use the semi-circular shapes as guides to draw the webbing.

Erase all the extra lines and you should have a perfectly formed Koi. Don't worry if it didn't work out first time.
This is a particularly tricky one to do. With practice it will become much easier.

If you want to really finish off your drawing, try adding colour and shading. This will really
help to bring your Koi to life!
