Description
I was taking ideas for drawings, and this was Ophryron's suggestion - a sphynx of neanderthal and sabretoothed cat.Really cool idea! I only intended to so a sketch but ended up doing a speedpaint (about 1 hour) instead.

Ah, a late comment to this one - but I really, REALLY love this guy! 
One of the most unique and genuinely cool Sphynx designs I've ever seen - I love how you blend the features so nicely - like the wrinkled knuckles and visible veins on the back of the front paw that look ape-like but the feline paw pads and claws beneath, his thick coat looks lovely and so well drawn, and I love his bright, vivid green eyes and striped markings. His pointed ears look really nice too, and I like how powerful he looks - also really love that you kept the sabretooth canines - together with the ears, heavy fur and green eyes, it stops his face from looking too humanoid, and ties in the design so much better - as well as making him look like he could believably function as an active predator. Not to mention a male sphynx for a nice change!
I see so many sphynx designs with just golden lion body and a woman's upper body glued on, this guy is SO refreshing and fantastically done - in fact I'd love to see him in a film or story, he really has bags of character and a lovely design!

That would be extremely unnerving to encounter in real life, all it needs is Argentavis wings
Would it be able to speak?

I think it might sound like Tom Waits.
