Based on a picture of an african lioness. The texture was made with Witherlings fur brushes.
Sketch for my project about the Stone Age Iberian Peninsula.
The coloration is based on european parietal art of the living animal, specially that of Chauvet cave. The dark marks separating pale and tan fur may have been less exaggerated in real life, consider them a bit of an artistic license. Anyway, it´s strill a first try and I may change it later.
