Manticore's Relative

Back when I was in college, my friend came up to me and asked if I would draw a manticore on her back. She was going to a concert and she really wanted to show this mythological creature off with her backless blouse. Obviously, I said yes and I had a blast drawing this! There is no better situation where you're pressured to draw whatever you're drawing perfect on your first attempt. <3

For those who don't know what a manticore is:

A manticore is a mythological creature that has the body of a lion, the eyes and face of a blue eyed human and a tail of a scorpion. They are known to feast on humans. (makes you wonder what type of concert my friend was going to XP)

I didn't draw it with a human face, and I added wings and horns so that's why I call it Manticore's Relative. ;



I drew this with Indian ink and permanent marker.
