Description
When and if I ever learn how to do backgrounds I might fix this, but I simply have no idea right now on how to do it so it'll have to wait.This is how I picture the Shadow cats in "Song of fire and ice" or as it's more commonly known - the Game of thrones series. They haven't shown in the tv-show, yet, but there are some on the books.
So, I see them as huge tiger/snow leopard like felines, with white stripes on black.
Around 18-20 hours of work perhaps.

Oooh, which book do they show up in? I'm only on the 2nd one
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They mention them in the second book, with a quick description, and then there is one we get to "see" in the third book.
I'm reading book four now, perhaps they show up again!

I thought somewhere he mentioned them being spotted? I always figured black with white/pale spots.
either way, nicely done, definitely looks like a massive cat

it's possible they were like tiger-sized snow leopards, but this was how I remembered them. I tend to do that, I read the description, but give them the looks I like better and forgets about the original.
And thank you ^^

That's cool.
I really like the big paws and the slender head. The shading is a bit weird though. The place seems very dark, however there seems to be light sources everywhere

Thanx!
True, I guess I just thought that the whole sky is pretty light and that is spreading an even 'lumination over everything. Buuut maybe not.
Thank you for commenting ^^
