Plus I love the lines!

Ooh, gorgeous! Love the glowy effects. The main blue of the body strikes me as looking a bit flat, maybe because the lion isn't shaded, so maybe blending a few similar (slightly darker and lighter, don't mess with the hue) blue tones would give it some dimension? Coloring the lines would also look lovely- it'd add to the lovely glow of your markings to have a lighter tone near them instead of just an unbroken black. Last piece of advice, I promise- using a more contrasting color than just a pale pink would do the nose and paw pads some good. Maybe a goldish yellow? (It'd make the eyes pop too if you so desired.) Overall you've got a wonderful design here!

No problem, glad to offer advice! (Loving the gold eye- it really makes a lovely focal point, though now that I see it on the nose I'm thinking maybe just a dark blue for it so there's not competing focal points. Idk, it looks lovely though- you could even make the tail orb gold if you wanted.)

You're right now that I'm looking at it from a far I just want to look at the nose. It takes the dramatic effect away from the eyes.
