I was going to post the finished version of this peice but i thought, I'd only do one posting of it and thus I'm posting wat the process is of putting my more "indepth" peices.

From this you can see what I started with (the original pencil sketch) and what I ended up with. You can also see here how many layers I went through to make it.

You gotta love layers when it comes to things like this.

Oh and so you know, these two are my characters Kokoro (orangish lioness) and Rei (redish lioness). They are sisters, and from the looks of Kokoro's stripes I've figured that they both have a very small amount of Tiger in them... just enough that it shows up slightly in Kokoro but not in Rei.
