Lionesses with Cubs

Not long after I finished my Photoshop class, I wanted to do a practice trail with shading and backgrounds. However, I didn't want to create an entirely new picture from scrap just for the sake of practice, especially if I wasn’t going to take it too seriously. And then I came across some of Savu's line art with permission for any one to use it. So I did just that.
I'm normally not the biggest fan of people using outlines to pass off as art. But I do make an exception when people use it to help with character designs or a practice trail, which is what I did here. I was trying to come up with character designs for background lionesses that exist in the Pridelands. After all, I see tons of people going on about the various different outlanders and unique characters and such, but only a handful of people seem to take in to consideration the Pridelander lionesses. I tried to do that but most of the designs are flawed and need work so I probably going to tweak them a bit before I finalize there designs.
Also, please ignore the rock they are laying on, It was a experiment that went horribly wrong. Instead, please make note of the lovely grasslands, stunning sky and marvelous trees (the texture really turned out nicely on them).
So enjoy this practice piece and I promise I’ll start showing more serious stuff in the near future. Bye.
