Finally it's done! xD

I think the shark was the most complicated thing to color out of it. Then again, the water gave me trouble too. But nonetheless it was a good experience; I haven't really colored animals (or Kisame lol).

Edit: Wallpaper version is up! There are two versions; one of them is an alternate. The mistakes are more visible now lol

Lineart is provided in the other thread and I'll get a WP up soon.

Very nice work GT...

The shading is really well done, the only change that could be done is the lines on certain parts such as the clouds could be better without and maybe you could try a fading effect on the lines? I dunno how to describe it...because it's too flat I think.

Nice work :) I specifically like the shark maw.

One detail I noticed: Those outlines at attachment of the shark fin to Kisame's right (that one a little bit higher than the red Akatsuki cloud on his cloak) look kinda weird there after the fin itself already has the 3D type of colorisation. It doesn't follow the flow of the other water details on the shark either so I'ld remove or change it.

Nice work on sharky, the sky and water is beautiful, Kisame looks okay, and the colors are awesome. :)

Shoot, gotta say my appreciation to that piece of work increases as I myself work on it. Sea foam (why doesn't provide the english language a good word for that? I miss the german "Gischt", all english words are less meaningful to adress the certain subject precisely) is hard to create in a good looking way x_X
