Description

Created in Adobe Illustrator using a Getty stock photo for reference. Normally I only post 3D work. Liked the image and wanted to share. 60 hrs to draw and gradient. Bkgrd jungle photo is posterized to save some labor. About 55 layers. Used Mesh tool to gradient stomach. You could play Waldo finding two neighbors of the leopard. Hint, one is on leaf, other in a tree.

Dude, this is OUTRAGEOUSLY GOOD! You did it in Illustrator??? Wow!! (try Xara, BTW) I never would have guessed this was a vector based image if you didn't say so. Amazing.

Thanks for the comment. Xara, will look over. The Gradient tool helps eliminate the flat look. Used the mesh tool aorund the ribs and stomach. I'll take a real airbrush over it anyday.
