any thoughts on this one?
Would love your thoughts on this doitsu kikokuryu. It's 2 years old and 13-14 inches in length.

well...
I really like the body, but the pecs are scary, a little bit like a seagull and too small. I am not a long-fin person, but I think that the proportion of the pec fins are off. The pattern is weak. Sorry... honest opinion.

I hate the pecs on it too. They are a bit crooked.

Off to a good start, as it's already in a garbage can

All that's left is to put it out of its misery....
