sh6.jpgWe're going to need a bigger boat!!  bear_laugh

My eldest son is 14 years old in two days time and he wanted me to create something special for his birthday. I let him choose the creature and this is what he came up with.  :crackup:

Here is my effort.  bear_tongue

I hope that I'm not too far off his 'ideal great white shark', I'll find out on Thursday. I chose not to give the teeth bloodstains but I did make them glow-in-the-dark instead.  bear_laugh

I hope you like his shark.

Regards

Lisa

WOW!!!  That turned out really cool!  I think your son will LOVE it!  LOL about the "big and cuddly" requirement (for a shark) - although I think you captured that too!

Wow! Killer! (sorry) This really is a stunning piece of work, Lisa.

I think you were wise to skip the bloodstains. (The bright red gums and glowing teeth should give the picture.)

Thanks for sharing,
Becky

Terrific likeness of a shark, Lisa!!  Very well done and your son's artwork is wonderful, too . . .  the talent must run in the family.  He will go wild for his shark.

Thank you for all your lovely comments bear_flower  One more day to go, I have my fingers crossed. I'm starting to brace myself for the party on Friday evening, 12 teenage boys in the house. Eeek! Perhaps should lock myself in the bathroom for the duration, lol!

Manula, the shark measures 18 inches in length.  bear_original

Well, thankfully he loves his new shark. The teeth particularly are a big hit.  bear_laugh  I wanted to show you a photo of him with Jaws, as it's now been named (very original huh!), but he's gone all shy on me now.

There is one problem though, he wants me to make a hammerhead shark for him for Christmas.  bear_cry   :doh:
