My entry for Oddly Shaded's Halloween contest. This is a Chimaera , a Greek mythological creature thats said to have the body of a lion, ram horns, a ghoat head and snake also attatched to its body. I've also read somewhere that there was also a dragon attatched to the body as well? But I really wasn't sure, so I just stuck with the goat and snake. I worked really hard on the horns, and I'm so proud of them. Here's an excerpt from the site I first found it on
"Spawned by Typhoeus and Echidna, the Chimaera had three heads - lion, goat, and snake .Its body was also mixed having the front part of a lion, middle of a goat, and snake for a tail. It breathed fire. It ravaged Lycia, killing cattle and setting fires until it was killed by Bellerophon. "

Edit: Forgot to say, I think the males or females can have manes o3o Because I saw no maneless ones...Maybe I'm wrong -shrugs-
