That is a good start Patrick.

👍

Patrick this is a really strong drawing! 😊 The overall shape and proportions are looking great, and I love the soft shading you’ve created around the body.
You’re also absolutely right in your observation, that’s a great sign of progress. For improvement, try slightly lowering the dorsal fin and push the shading darker towards the edges instead of the center to get more volume. Keep going like this, your understanding is improving a lot! 🎨

bravo

Great job Patrick.

Great lines and proportions.
