Would he be tempted to eat himself? Haha! I like it. Your stripes are well placed, too. Please upload a high res (just click edit entry and check high resolution box) so I can judge it better.

Yes.. HIGH RES please.. he's so FLUFFY!!!

Done

Very nice but the hairs look a bit fake, maybe you can make it more real

There's a halo around him....fix that too. good ideea.

o.o your zebon is giving light o.o;

Mane is too desaturated...

Great work! I love the stripes. Suggestion: It looks like you used a brush for the mane coloring. As others stated, this makes it look desaturated. Also, it makes you lose color on the right side of the Zebon's face and cause loss of color due to the fuzzy edges around the mane.

So, as far as the loss of color, try using a layer mask with a combination of the smudge tool to make the edges of the mane less fuzzy and more confined to the hair. Then, to deal with the saturation issue, create a copy of the original mane, desaturate it, then put it on top of the brush layer, setting it to overlay or soft light. This will bring out the shadowing of the hair and give it more depth without losing the new, light color you have given it.

Good work and good luck, author!

Not bad. Musicj19 gives a good tip about the manes. I'd also remove the glow around the body with a mask and you may want to look again at the lion's nose. Good luck!

LOL, very funny!!! ) It reminds me of that saying : "you are what you eat" LOL

great job but you should have kept the mane the same color.
