Awesome

Thank you very much!

You're welcome

Yes, I agree sharks must be protected.
Yes they can be nasty and kill people, just like any other wild animal.

Great picture!

Exterminating sharks to ensure the comfort of some surfers doesn't exactly thrill me.
Maybe the Cousteau's documentaries I watched in my childhood gave me some bad influence.

Thank you for the kind comment and for the favourite!

The problem we have, at least here in Costa Rica, is that shark are killed by illegal chinese sailors who are looking for shark's fin.
There is no control, and surprise surprise the government prove to be incompetent.

Why the Costa Rican government doesn't send its Army to protect them?
All right, my sense of humour is quite questionable not to say despicable.

Actually, I am quite surprised that there is no control. The Costa Rica is probably the most "ecologist" State in the world: 25% of its territory is protected and 5% of the Earth biodiversity is concentrated there. I am currently reading the Wikipedia article on this subject and it seems that the situation is perfectly under control... under the control of some Mafia. The financial power of those criminal groups is somehow disheartening.

Speaking of shark fishing, I recently watched the old Italian movie "Mondo Cane" (done in 1962) where an horrible way of killing these big fishes is shown: the sailors force some captured sharks to eat urchins and let them die in the sea. Here is an excerpt on Youtube. This scene (like other scenes the whole movie) is quite disturbing.

poor shark x3 :3

Indeed.

Oh no! D: Poor shark! I hope he at least managed to take a few with him. Prior to his trial of course.

Poor shark, indeed. It doesn't seem that his attorney was as efficient as one could expect...

I really hope he didn't spend to much on him, just adds salt to the wounds.

He probably became his client last diner...

XD Would be fitting, but would the bailiffs just stand by while he ate the poor sod?

It would be somehow risky to upset a starving shark... even if you are a bailiff. So, let him have his diner.
Attorney is not considered a critically endangered specie by the biologists, as far as I know.

No, no they are not. Besides, I trust that counts as his last meal, right?

He eventually did something positive for his client.

What ever works, right? :D

Autre titre possible : Le poisson, c'est bon !
Quoique le requin, d'après les infos retrouvées sur le Net, ne soit pas un met particulièrement savoureux, en dépit de ce que racontent certains cuisiniers asiatiques...

J'ajouterai même que le squale, c'est un régale !

I think what I sort of am drawn towards the most here is the tears underneath the blindfold. Though it is sort of funny imagining how that happens even underwater hehe -w- I also really like your hatching in everything, hatching is great and I feel under-utilized by a lot of artists hehe.

Tears underwater are quite unusual indeed !

As I wrote in the description, this picture was both traditional and digital.
I remember having lot of fun trying new drawing techniques on this one.
