This one was fun to make. I started with the head and kinda went down. I wouldn't say that it's really a traditional pattern, considering there isn't just one design to stick to. The throat flame was rather difficult because I didn't want it to overlap the white, eye marks or cheek tufts. The torso was also a bit difficult.

My base color was the far left, top color on the swatches. The pale stripes on it's hind legs were the same color as the base color so I wasn't breaking the rules by making this design paler (If that was a concern). Also, if the eye color and pupil is a concern, I am willing to change it.

Sorry about my crud-ladden explanation.... I have a case of crap-grammer-itis.... -_-''
