Hi all,
this one started out as a test for an upcoming animation. Since I liked it so much I’m gonna share it with you.
Base mesh done in Maya, detailing and texturing in Zbrush, rendered with MR and comped with shake… Hipoly is about 3.5 millions of polies.
hope you like it.
Wow that came out quite nicely. Only thing to me is that is seems little fuzzy I guess, maybe could be a tad sharper, but a very nice job overall.
5 stars !!
Very Nice shark! Don’t you wish everything had node interface like shake 
Cool sculpt, but the eyes are a bit cat-like. A white shark’s eyes are actually black, no whites in 'em. 
Very impressive and dangerous looking shark indeed. I personally don’t mind it being slightly out of focus.
Keep up the great work.
Paul.
…The return 
Very weel realized 
Looking good. Just a couple of crits.
It looks like you’ve put an iris/pupil in the eye. Sharks eyes are black, andI think it could be slightly larger.

The other is, the nostril (or shark equivalent) needs to be more pronounced.

Otherwise - great render, nice model, looking fwd to the animation.

underwater…moving…low light…reasonably slow shutter speed…
could be slightly blured and not razor sharp…FANTASTIC JOB!
I agree with el-d
one simple comment
the scars on her body (and I say her) cause you modeled a girl shark 
should be upside down
these scares happend when the male bite her fin trying to pin her down in mating season
fresky creatures

also the materail need to have some specularity in it
overall great work
Wow,
first of all thanks for all your comments… lots of shark specialists around here! I was kinda aware about the eye, but stopped caring since I thought it looked good with that eye as well (though from some other shark). In general I stopped trying to 100% mimic a great white at some point, just wanted to make it look good to my satisfaction.
I didn’t know about the scars. good to know. you never stop learning.
I dont know if I agree about the specular…I was thinking that the shark is pretty deep underwater… but thanks for the input anyway
thank you all again!
need to agree to pride.
i love the athmosphere of the image - low tight, slightly polluted water, slow movement. just perfect!
can’t wait to see the animation - keep on rocking!
Great general work so far!
As many before me I must say that this shark deserves two black,empty balls for his eyes and deeper nostrils tobe a real monster!
He also needs to be sharpened a bit
Anyway great render and texture.
As personal will I’d like to see a final pic with more pronounced CAUSTICS.
Greetings,
MattHHH
