Description
Another art challenge by , , and !
For each challenge we interchangeably give ourselves an idea or topic to illustrate and a short, specified time to execute it in whatever shape or form... of course, without knowing what the others are going to come up with.
This week's topic is MidnightTea7 's idea: "Chimeras - draw a fantastical creature made of more than one real species."
***
My first idea. Not exactly typical Chimera, but still is mixed with lion, goat and snake!
SAI + a bit of PS CS
+ references! Previous art challenges you'll find here: daekazu.deviantart.com/gallery…

That is not what a chimera lookskike. you can't just put any comb8nation of lion, goat, and snake parts together and call it a Chimera.

Actually, by all means he can. As it is an 'artists interpretation' as a start.
Secondly, throughout history that are different ideas of 'exactly' how certain mythical creatures look. Yes the Chimera's tail is supposed to have the hair of a snake and the goat head often comes out of its back. But this interpretation is a lot easier for the human eye to comprehend.
