It actually looks more like a beluga whale in my opinion. I'm sorry but I don't really see this being on res. Though it's a nice design, I feel that it's not the most 'ressy' thing.

I must agree with Ping, I did think it looked like a whale. A general feature to distinguish sharks it the shape of the head, and the way they bite and roar. Their mouths detach. I would give a further critique, but this isn't an art exclussive thread. >:(

Since a pet should have to resemble the animal it was based off without it being necessary to write what it was meant to be, I think a few tweaks in the design and it would be awesome.

Yo, I never said looking like a beluga whale was a problem. I just thought the overall design isn't really res material. I like beluga whales. They're cool. Obscure animals are always the best (though I wouldn't say the beluga was the most obscure thing I've ever seen).

Of course, the shark's head isn't the main thing that distinguishes them.

This thing here, the ray shark is a shark but doesn't look like a shark -> http://www.newportonthelevee.com/images/New%20Male%20Shark%20Ray.jpg

Oh and if you wanted to make a shark creatu, base it off this one. It's called the cookie cutter shark, it's my favourite obscure shark xD
