What do you think?

Best regards from Luxembourg,

Looks very nice! I'd love to see a shot of it in a bowl. How big is it? Who is the breeder?

[wwwkoilu]

Dear jnorth,

the breeder is Sakai of Hiroshima. The size is 68 cm. I will look up a picture in a bowl and publish it.

Best regards,

Claude

Thanks and please don't bowl it just for me. An older bowl shot is just fine.

What do I say??? Hmmmmm.... I say its a good thing for you that Luxembourg is so far away, otherwise someone might be tempted to "re-appropriate" such a beauty for their own pond.
(Just kidding about that last part)
I have a soft spot for powerful, blocky sumi patterns like this one. Lovely Koi and you have every reason to be proud.

Clean up the shiroji, and let her sumi mature, and in a couple of years she will be quite impressive.
