Here are my thoughts.

The body seems nice and long. The tail tube is thick. The head is a little short but we'll see how it grows.

I really like the pattern. If the sumi comes in the places along the right of the head i think it'll be really balanced.

Tell me what you think. I'd like to hear your critique.

Well after talking to my friends about Ki Shusui and convincing them that Ki Shusui had a future and so on. After those exciting conversations, one of my friend sent me a picture saying that the fish in the pic is a present for me. Dunno where he got it or how he got it. But he will send it to me soon..

I am wondering if this is considered as Ki Shusui.. (Not making a shortcut here. Still gonna do my 2nd Ki Shusui Project :) )

The sumi is slowly coming up from tail to head. I am unsure about the skin quality on this one.

first picture is the nagashima showa 23 cm
2nd shinoda ginrin at 7 o clock 18cm to the very left the rest are of the nagashima showa at 6 oclock so what do ye think. the other fish in the pictures were other options to me but i like the colour depth of the white on the shinoda and from experience i believe the sumi will shrink/dissapear as he gets older the nagashima has a lot of underlying sumi at his dorsal area that i hope will fill in.i know the motogoro is stripy but i think this showa was the best of the bunch.
