Sunnet Maned Lioness Portrait (Patreon)

Here's another peek into my work process!

For some reason, drawing lions at certain angles, especially in tlk style, can be tricky to map out just right!

They take me quite some time, but never-the-less bring me great joy.

The first image is the rough sketch I managed to get out, and the second is an outline of the body to get a proper grasp and understanding of what is what, and how a mane should fall!

As you can see, I adjust the mane slightly to fall more in line with the body and neck/head structure! Its very easy to get lost in a mess of lines, but this is also a good representation of how much of a MESS my mind is!
