A brand new species for me , - a  beautyful nurse shark  cheers

From National Geographic I have taken the liberty to copy :
Nurse sharks are slow-moving bottom-dwellers and are, for the most part, harmless to humans. However, they can be huge—up to 14 feet (4.3 meters)—and have very strong jaws filled with thousands of tiny, serrated teeth, and will bite defensively if stepped on or bothered by divers who assume they’re docile.

They use their strong jaws to crush and eat shellfish and even coral, but prefer to dine on fish, shrimp, and squid. They are gray-brown and have distinctive tail fins that can be up to one-fourth their total length. Unlike most other sharks, nurses are smooth to the touch.

A beautyful model with silky skin and a slightly metallic colour, which makes it look very real  :

It's a amazing model, and my favourite shark species! Very Happy 
The paintjob isn't bad, but they are more brownish and not grey in nature.

That's such a nice figure. Too bad it only has 4 gill slits. Why do so many companies get that simple, basic feature incorrect?

Nurse sharks have five gills but the two last one are so closed that it looks like it has four Wink
