This one looks interesting, and it makes me want to see the "now" pictures.
The body conformation and skin quality look good, beni appears thick and deep red in color against a nice white shiroji with excellent pattern placement. Once again I find myself caught in the Sumi guessing game. The facial Sumi looks to have a lot of potential in this pic, but the back 1/2 of the body I can't tell a thing... If there is good sumi hiding in the midsection and tail tube I'd be sorely tempted.
