Description
Made in modo, Zbrush, After effects and photoshop.I used modo for modelling, scene setup, lighting, rendering and so on. Pretty much everything, really. ZBrush was used for the rocks, and the fish itself. I used AE for postwork, and Photoshop for some texture and post work.
Otto was always a bit different from the other creatures of the sea. He was never quite sure who or what he wanted to be, until the day he saw a Great White swimming along, minding his own business. From this day onwards, Otto knew he wanted to be a shark, even though he lacked the obvious badass-predator-look which only sharks, lions and certain Scottish people posses.
Otto never really liked his name though. Otto he thought, wasn't really him. He then spread a rumour that people now called him Vlad, but it never really got around that much, to the would-be Vlad's great disappointment. He sometimes signs important papers with the name Vlad though, just because it makes him feel cool.
To show the world that he is in fact a shark, he frequently tries to harass and kick other fish's ass, but they are generally just annoyed and tell him to bugger off. Despite the fact that he is a rather unsuccessful shark, he's still pleased with himself. At least he has a shark fin, even though it may be made out of rubber.

Even with the rows of sharp teeth, I still find it hard to be intimidated by our finned friend here. XD
Wonderful and imaginative story to go with an equally wonderful picture; the details and effort in both, show!

The artist comments made this 10 times cooler than it already was.

"even though he lacked the obvious badass-predator-look which only sharks, lions and certain Scottish people posses."
Where is the verb in that clause? And isn't "people posses" redundant? Each word implies the existence of multiple persons, so why not just choose one and stick with it?
Anyway, great expression on your model. I hope Vlad achieves his dreams

I'm also glad to see that someone with +10 words in their artist's comments got featured. The image is nicely done, the setting kind of reminds me of finding nemo.
