Whoa, I had to double-take there! Reminded me of an online comic I read, Skin Deep right here 'cause the main chair is a Sphinx with lovely black hair as yours, 'cept yours definately has an Egyptian flair to it

And I love the lion's body of the Sphinx

Yeah, it actually has a pretty cool storyline to it. A friend of mine ~AiweAlako did some fanart of it, that's how I found out about it. Definately recommend giving it a read-through
And you're welcome ^__^

Wow, I really like this! It's such a creative take on it. A very practical version of a sphinx, I guess!

Thanks. There's a lot I wanna fix on it...its more of a concept piece. Something to build off of.

I love how you drew her face, her eyes and especially her hair! It is so straight…hair like that always reminds me of the β€˜rince of Egypt.’ And I love that movie

I like that you made your sphinx lady with a kitty nose. I have not seen one with a feline profile before. I like the styled look of her design. I like the long thn lines in the neck and spine coupled with the thickness of her musculature. The long neck and hair make her look more exotic. An A ++ in character design. She looks like she would be interesting to animate.

Thank you! I did the kitty nose because I was having a hard time getting the human nose to look right -lame- Im so stupid lol. I had fun with her and I wanna keep working on her design. X)

It was lovely to see your massive update recently, and all of your drawings looked wonderful. I don't quite have the time to comment on each of them but they were awesome to see. Your versitility shows, and you draw wonderfully stylized and crisp

Clearly she is modelling for a BYU "Fantasy Design" class. 8)

And I like her face. The head/torso seems maybe a little petite for the big lion shoulders they connect to, but then again there's a certain degree of interest in the contrast.

Yeah, I noticed the head was a little small, but I was in too much of a rush to fix it at the time. Ill either go back and fix it or just fix it on her next design/drawing i do. 8)

HAHAH. BYU fantasy design class....how awesome...

Ayem [2008-03-11 12:02:11 +0000 UTC]

I think she looks quite modern. lika hip young and cool teenage sphinx. It's quite interseting to see that twist on one. I loke the smooth blend from human to lion, too.
