Spirit untamed

"In valleys of fear,
Do I walk with head high;
The weakness that threatens,
My courage belies.
And when it is courage
That fails me as well
It is hope and my faith
That save me from hell."
~Poem from Wolfwalker

Pretty much did this as a representation of Ed's soul and what it would look like if it were in animal form. (Got the idear from Dethklok's epi where they visited the amazon xP)
Usually one would say Ed's a wolf. But I think he could probly be a tiger too. He pretty much represents the untamed animal representation of valor itself. Plus he's got the fierce expression of one too if you think about it. Not to mention the dazzling gold hues of one. 83

I am rather pleased with how this came out for my first offical realistic tiger. The markings were a huge pain, but I think I pulled it off rather well. I have my big tiger pelt to thank for a reference on markings and color patterns. No worries, teh pelt is fake of course. I'd never get a real tiger pelt cause I love these rulers of the jungle far too much to deny them their lovely fur.
Ed came out rather good too, and hardly any mistakes to boot yewt! Yes I do believe I'll be drawing more tigers in the future with teh Edo, cause I might just make a tiger his ba in mah fanfic. (oldschool yugioh fans would know what a ba is ;3)

View and comment, for it makes me a happeh panda mwah! x3
