PRINTABLE NOTES

The body of the shark looks like an upside-down teardrop with a bent tail, draw it using two long curving lines that wrap around and off to one side. The tail is four curving lines tow going out and back and two going in . The top tail fin is much longer. Start the mouth as a rainbow arch shape.

When you have finished the basic shape then start adding the details. There is a hump over the eye like an eyebrow. There are two long fins that are shaped like skinny triangles but slightly curved.  There is a fin at the back but only a little shows from the slight 3/4 view.

The teeth are not even, some are broken and some are missing. There is space between the teeth but there are rows behind too. The gums are ragged so use jagged lines to draw the gums

Don't forget the gills they are just curved lines behind the mouth. There are three small fins underneath the shark's belly. There are two nostrils they are not for breathing but sharks have an awesome sense of smell.

Color him gray or blue. The underside is lighter than the top and the tail fin is dark but not black.
