Very nice work but I did some research but unfortunately the "sharkman" isn't a myht creature. Its just a fictious one

wasn't it supposed to be a water creature? Else I will go and have to change some stuff. Can anyone help out on this? Not very clear to me when reading the contest details. Just let me know if it doesn't fit the subject!

to me the contest meens there are myths and folklores that there are yet to be discovered creatures in the seas. it doesnt say anything about using documented myths about specific creatures. so id say ur entry is fine

Here's what Lamantine told me when I asked about creating a fictitious creature:
Well, I was thinking about any water creatures which were not proven to exist but in which some persons believe and that has its own legend. The list I've given is partial ; you can search for other myth sea creatures online. But I'm afraid you can't create one from your mind.

So the list on the link that he posted does have names of quite a few creatures, most have a description only, and a couple do have an image of some sort. I'm sure that there are lots more names and descriptions out there if you look further. Good luck to everyone!
EDIT: anything goes!

as the moderator mentioned, it's okay to make up your own so i'll keep it this way, my original idea!
