Yeah guys, something really different.
But that's wat I like about modelling, variation. I'm building in different categories like planes, tanks, racing cars, ships and in this case a shark. It's also nice to use a technique for one specific genre on another.
For instance, how to break up the monotone colour on a 1000kg "panzer grey" fish? 🙂

very beautyfull... how was the construction of the kit itself? and how did you do the dividing line between the belly and the back...?

Thanks Bart.
The kit is low in parts count with a good fit of the fins. If you want a smooth join between bottom jaw(s 🙂) + head and between head + body, be prepared for a lot of Mr.surfacer and sanding. The demarcation between belly and back is done by the classic paintbrush

with any other model I am happy to take pictures of the real stuff before, but for this one, I hope I never see one while diving! 🙂

Nice to see something completely different Kees, and beautifully built and painted as well. I didn't even know a shark kit was available.

Thanks for the comments Jean, Antonio, David, Edwin and gorbygould.
@Jean: In fact there is a diver and a shark cage included in the kit, but I just wanted a model of a great white, not a complete dio😉
@gorbygould: There is a model kit of almost everything, you just have to look for it! 🙂👍
