Description
Well, here we go. The Chimaera. Descriptions vary, but typically, it has the body of a lion, and three heads: One lion head, one snake head, and one goat head. It's also typically female, and the mother of the Sphynix. Sighting one is indicative of a storm, shipwreck, or an erupting volcano. Because I have done storms and the sea to the point of exhaustion, I decided to place my Chimaera in the underbelly of a volcano.Also, no texturizing this time. It took away from the blending I did to create the Chimaera, and besides. I like this one better without any textures.

Um. And, fullview, please. Detail's better.
EDIT: Sorry for the resubmit. The link is giving me a broken message every time I try and post it back to the stock artists! That's not helpful.

now i know i said i was going to leave a nice comment on this but i dont think i can its far to good hehe. I really love the lighting in this you captured the mood and feeling of a volcano really well (well how i would imagine it to look)
i always thought that it was snake tailed beast but then there are so many differetn versions. but still all three at the front of the body looks great somthing i didnt think of seeing but none the less great stuff as always

Yea, that was the trouble with the darned thing. So many different ways to portray it... I chose this way because that's they was I've read about it in books, so. Meh.
Thank you so much for the comment! I'm really glad that you like it as well. It hardly got any recognition, and I think it's one of my better pieces...

well thank you very much that means alot comming from some one with this real talent for what they do makes me want to go out and hug a child hehe but i know what you mean its quite gutting when you get shots your quite proud with and think people are going to to see and enjoy and have stuff to say about and i guess there is just so much on this site that it passes alot of people by but its still quite upsetting in a way makes me wanna go out and kick a squirrel lol

Haha! Hugging children and kicking squirrels, are we? But I know exactly what you mean. Pieces I do that I feel are cliche and boring get tons of attention and popularity, versus pieces that I spend time on and get no recognition for... I guess it's just the downside of being on such a huge site?

ye i would have to agree with you there it is such a huge site there is just no way every one can see every picture that there gonna like. I know theres not realy much that can be done with it but then again alot of people out there who are really really deserving of more watchers and reconition and they dont get it and alot of people that dont deserve it get it aswell its just the way this community works sometimes.
