Here's my piece for the Wish You Were Here Calendar Project (http://coyote-tangent.com/wywh/index.htm)

I was asked to do the Rhodesian Ridgeback, a large dog well-known for the distinct ridge of hair that grows in the opposite direction of the rest of the fur on the back. They were often called "African Lion Hounds" as well - thus the lion with him. It's supposed to be glossy and like a vacation postcard, so of course the dog is dressed in his Zulu-inspired finest, and the lion is a bit "fluffy"; obviously, in real life, things are a lot less pretty. There will be a stamp in the upper right and a line of text along the bottom; I left the areas less-detailed there for that reason.
