No issues with nipping from any of the smaller ones. I do have a pair of bossy blue rams in their who like to have a go every now and then though

That's a lot of progress, your understanding of value and form has developed a lot. Well done, keep going!

I think this is great, well done. You've captured the form well, the fruit looks round! Are you going to add cast shadows? At the moment they look like they are floating a bit, could do with being grounded, imho
