Showa - What Do You Think!

[Russell Peters]

I found this and am very interested in opinions. Please be brutal - if necessary.

Is this a trick question? Can I see the after picture.....

It is way too hard to see with that picture. Conformation looks thin..especially the back half. Cant really see the color quality well. Got a better shot???

It is the only picture I have. I tried to clean it up, but could not do any better.

Do the best you can.

It is not a trick question. I want to know what your opinion is looking at this showa now.

Hope this helps...



It's long and narrow now, but may buff up nice with a good summer. If the sumi rises where I think I see it will, it'll be rather striking. Interesting motoguro with the beni-lined sumi. Bummer we don't have a clearer pic...

Thank You Marie.

ok...I fully expect there to be an after picture that will blow our minds!! As far as this picture...I dont like the hi on the pecs. The conformation is thin in the back half. It is definitely a kindai...not a great kohaku pattern. But..like I said..I'm sure the sumi fills it in to make an amazing after picture.

Can only see the pattern. Don't like it.

Looks like an ebay fish........

On a scale of 1-10, I give it a -4.5
