This brightly-colored lion looks peaceful and content as it rests on the ground. Its vibrant orange and black stripes stand out against its dark brown mane, which frames its face. Its mouth is slightly open and its tongue hangs out ever-so-slightly, giving it a relaxed and humorous expression. Its eyes are closed and its body is totally at ease. To bring out the detail of this majestic beast, some areas should be shaded with a light or dark shade of brown, and the stripes should be used to create a striking contrast between the two colors. The mane could be painted in a deep chestnut brown and the tongue could benefit from a bright orange to really draw attention to it. Finally, some delicate details could be painted in yellow at the edges of the fur to add some sparkle.
