Description ///EDIT/// CHECK OUT THE SPEEDPAINT PROCESS VIDEO FOR THIS PICTURE HERE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVx_xq…
And check out my process of creating the character here: fyrewhisp.deviantart.com/art/A…

We had to design a fictional character for one of my college classes and I decided a sphinx would be a fun character to play with. Typically, a sphinx has a lion body and a human head, and often times bird wings. Well, I decided that I didn't want to do the traditional sphinx and I wanted to experiment with other big felines. So I ended up with three different types, an african-tiger sphinx, a chinese-snowleopard sphinx, and a hindu-panther sphinx. I ultimately liked my african sphinx design the best and this is how she came about!
I don't really have any other details besides that xD. I'll likely post the thumbnails that led to this.

Looks great! I was doing a project with several versions of the Sphinx with different coat patterns and this looks cooler than mine, I gotta admit. ^w^

Thank you! Aha, I did strive to make her look as cool as I could in the short amount of time I had.
I appreciate the lovely comment.
