Description
The Manticore, from Persian mythology. The body of a lion with the head of a man and a tail of a scorpion or serpent, sometimes depicted with wings. I remember having one of these in my Warhammer fantasy army when I was a young lad, didn't do me much good, I don't think I ever won a battle.Related content

Rather magnificient! Your style is deft and lovely detailed. Go Sasanians!
Please pardon me asking, but would you by any chance be interested in helping out the volunteer project known as the Ninth Age (T9A for short: www.the-ninth-age.com/ )? It is the spiritual successor of Warhammer Fantasy, run by 300+ volunteer contributors all tinkering in their spare time, and it aims to go even further than Warhammer did along the paths of historically based fantasy smΓΆrgΓ₯sbord setting: i.imgur.com/dlmQkB6.jpg
For one thing, T9A is the perfect way for what used to be Warhammer fantasy fanart to instead become official artwork for an emerging setting, and thus gain much more widespread exposure.
Moreover, T9A is always welcoming artists who want to join their art team, and your skill and distinctive designs would be great to have on board, should you ever be interested in joining and help develop this setting by putting your own distinctive mark upon its art pool. If you would by any chance be interested in donating old artworks of yours, then here is a quick guide for T9A gallery upload of art contributions: i.imgur.com/ORLCncV.jpg
I can get you in E-mail contact with the head of their art team, if you're interested.
At any rate, splendid artworks! Evocative to boot, and subtly coloured/shaded like a dream. Have a nice day.

Hi thanks for the lovely comment, and sorry for the late reply. I'm rather busy at the moment with my own project, but in the future if I have time I may wellΒ contribute some art, sounds interesting. Thanks.

I especially like how the head is disproportionate with the body, makes him otherworldly.

Thanks Man, I think even with a proportionate head He'd have a hard time fitting-in in this world.

The perfect beast; the intellect of a man, the poison of the scorpion, the agility of the bat and the might of a lion!
