May or may not be inspired by a picture taken in Africa.

I've been fiddling around with design for quite awhile now - From poofy ball tail to something less distracting, from a black and white carcass to a simple skeleton, and from a watercolor feel to something more simple.

Also, went for compliments on shirt color - Other ideas have been using a deep Red or Gold.

:] Let me know what ya'll think.

Haha! This turned out great! I'm not gonna lie though, I really liked it when the lion had blood on its feet, but this is still great. Good job!

Put some shadows on the ground and maybe plants. You can also try another tee's colors.

Shadows sounds like a great idea, Also, thanks Kit :]

I originally had been butting up to the Color limit, but now I have a free one. Let me see what I can do then.

Looks awesome!!

Working on a v2. Will be out by tonight.

Ya'll agree though? Shadows would help to ground the entire thing.

nice. i'm looking forward for the v2.

it deserves a bit more work.
that's a good idea with the shadows, i think you should also give the skeleton an outline too. It looks a bit like beeing from an other movie right now

Have a vulture circleing the carcus waiting for the lion to leave

I'm up for scoring, can you help me out and leave a comment

I would mke the lion's body more rounded to make it cuter.

:] Thanks kids. I may make the shadow of a vulture to suggest it, also I'll bump up the highlight and the shadow on the lion to round him out a bit.

Along with the shadows, I'll see how outlining the skeleton goes, I tried it once before and it looked a little strange, but there's no harm in trying again :o

Here's a tip:

Never use the templates from the submission kit. It's a newbie trap and will definitely lower your score.

As for the design itself, first you need a good concept, a story, if you want to draw something simple. Now all I see is a lion and a corpse. Doesn't make me go "Ha! Never thouhgt of that!".

Although the lion's head looks like a wet sunshine with a bone in his face. Maybe you could go for a visual pun and draw a lions head rising like the sun above the cliff a la "The Lion King".

The skeleton is clearly auto-traced from some photo, clashes stylistically with the lion, and adds nothing. I'd lose it.

Keep it up.

Agree on shadows definetly. Like the liny face of the lion but don't quite get his mouth. Maybe some more linework on the skeleton (inside)

Please vote for my squirrel Thanks :)

I think it looks cute, I just dont understand why his mouth looks like that. There dosen't seem to be enough going on. The vulture idea sounds good. Thanks for comment on mine and i just found them shirt's. Thanks a bunch!!
