That goes for any of the art, the characters, and the story line too. It's time to crack down on Theft!

Ok! I admit this one isn't one of my best in the series, but here it is anyway!

The Chimera! Suggested by :icontwilightlavender: and also by :iconsir-tigersbane:
Although the image of the Chimera is so varied, the one I know and have always known has the heads of a lion, goat, and rooster, with a snake for a tail.
According to Homer's Iliad though "a thing of immortal make, not human, lion-fronted and snake behind, a goat in the middle, and snorting out the breath of the terrible flame of bright fire"

It seems she only has three heads and not four :D

If you have any other myth suggestions then don't hesitate to note me! They can be from any country!

I've never seen this version of the Chimera. I like it, it looks way more vicious than the one I know. xD
:iconredbishopinlove:
Looks great! Very imposing!

Yeah I must admit I don't remember a rooster in there, but chimeras are very varied anyway, you could make up your own chimera out of a duck, bear and a slow worm I'm sure.

:lmao: it's kind of like "Oh look, a terrifying man eating Chimera!" then you see the attached chicken head and all terror is gone! I admit, I saw it in a book when I was small!
