Description A character I've had in mind for a little while now. A manticore/sphinx hybrid. An intelligent, unstable, man-eating predator. This image illustrates him as a "cub" and as an adult. I should colour this at some point....

Both wings and front paws are very well achieved.

Aww, he reminds me of my dad...the pudgieness, not the cannibalism.

TOO cute! x3 I'd love to see more of this stuff.
oh my, I'm inspired. I think I just might draw some myself, unless you mind.

Thank you. ^^ And I don't mind at all. I'd be quite interested in seeing your rendition.

It's an interesting idea, sort of a different take on the sphinx.

Thank you. It's more of a hybridization of a sphinx and a manticore (a more eastern based beasty), to be specific.

Gah! The cuteness is overwhelming! TT!

I love the jelly bean like look of him as a cub, though~. -Man eaters are always fun *snirk*

xD Just a wee bit... but there is a need for population control.

:> fweh i adore him. i was wondering what he would look like and he is even more fantastical than I could have imagined (and so adorable as a kid,

I also must ask who that kid is in the corer. I have an idea... but *wants to knowX3*

Xenobody In reply to queen-dedede [2009-04-27 15:14:37 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. ^^ I wanted to impart that, as a child, he was fairly innocent(?)... harmless(?). He hadn't reached the point where he'd become something of a monster. I still need to flesh out his parents. They're an ... odd couple.

As for the kid in the corner... well, I borrowed him to assist with size reference. Then I messed up his proportions... *sigh* I s'ose that's what comes of borrowing Rekaios without permission... ^^'

The triplets as adults... That'd be interesting to see. And prolly kinda scary. Some major issues going on there.

And I actually didn't mean for ... him (Dammit, I forgot the name I'd picked out for him) to look so mature. He's meant to look more in his late teens. But I s'ose monsters prolly have to mature faster.

Thanks. ^^

He's a character who belongs to . I borrowed him for a scale reference and then messed up his proportions...

Thanks. ^^ But that's part of the trap. He's usually something of a man-eater...
