FMP Final Designs



After designing three variations of the Chimera in my design development, I produced these final designs ready to study from for my final piece. They are based on the first design, of which is a classic Chimera, as depicted in Greek mythology. I chose to follow this because I am very fond of it and felt that I should stay closer to the original to do it justice. I have however, merged the three animals in subtle ways (as well as the obvious) like adding scales on the legs and feet of the lion and blended the hair of the goat into the body and back. I will likely follow the sheet at the top as it is in a more active stance and adds to the majesty of the creature.
