| Finally got around taking pictures, here is my take. I added a little photoshop edit (had to get rid of the base) for the flight picture [:D]

| | Looks really good glumag, vast improvement off the original. The fur looks really nicely done, and I like the red eyes of the black dragon. Makes him look feircer. The cat's orange/red nose kind of stands out a little too much, but its a nice repaint. I wish I had one done better like it.. | |

venport thanks!
True: yeah, I was aiming more at a cougar than a lioness, since I am still disappointed they had to put a lioness in there [:D] | |

Love the improvements, minus the flocked base it looks like a paint master. | |

| I can see where the cougar would be a better pick than a lioness. It definetely looks like one. Why did you go with brown for the outline of the wings? Did you think it'd stand out more than just using black and white for the whole wings?
Its a nice blending of colors, I guess I just expected the wings to be all darker, without the brown. Were you trying to blend all the bodies, heads, etc together and make it look like there was no seperation really? | |

| Great stuff, glumag. I've been wondering what a proper (well, sort of proper) Chimera would look like.
Those eyes are very intense. | |

Yes, I wanted an old leathery look to them and wanted to include the fur colors to them a bitquote:

exactly, even tho there are 3 heads it is still one creature, so I wanted that represented.
I got very lucky with the eyes, these are by far the best eyes I have ever painted, followed by the weretiger. Practice and patience I guess do pay off [:p] still working on basing tho [)] the quality of the pictures came out great, been trying new bulbs and settings o the camera too [:)]
Thanks all for the comments! [:D] | |

| | Very impressive. The best take on a chimera I've seen so far. I also share the notion that a lioness just takes some of the base concept away due to preferrances and the cougar idea was obviously recognizable to me the moment the pictures loaded. Now if we can only get someone to do a lynx in place of the lioness............... | |
