Before making my  painteddog-inspired shark clips, I did quick ballpoint doodles on scrap paper of what I wanted each one to look like. The white shark turned out decently true-to-sketch, I think, but I wish I would've been more faithful in sculpting the zebra shark -- I prefer the teeny teeth and flatter head of the drawing to the features of the final product. Oh well... gives me an excuse to make another one! :)

Materials: ballpoint pen, index card.
