Tiger in a Bow Tie

It's been a while since I've done a good old animal portrait and when I first got my new studio I went into auto pilot and started creating this. I normally wouldn't pick an animal as commonly known as the tiger, but it was the best reference photo I had at my disposal, so there you go. 

This is a colored pencil base with watercolor over it, which is actually a totally new medium for me, but I think it turned out nicely. I'm hoping to do a few on wood panel soon.
