(Edit: also, when I first started hearing about Kardashians I though everyone was talking about Cardassians)
#lifegoals right there. I considered going into marine science but then someone pulled me aside and was like "there are no jobs, go do something else." So I switched to graphic design. I *would* love to be as technical as possible when building this tail, except for the fact that my art-eye was like "That looks weird" when I did the original shield scales. This is possibly because the thickness of the scale made it look fakey and round. It's nice to know at least I kinda followed one real kind of scale... even if it's shark.


And no one knows why the Kardashians are famous, it's why they're famous.
