Lady Sphinx

Today’s post is a sphinx like creature, a tiger with the head of a woman. It was simple enough to do in Inkscape. I pulled a public domain photo of both the woman and the tiger from The Commons on Flickr. Then in Inkscape, I imported and bitmap-traced both of them, placed them on top of each other with a strategically placed white polygon between the face and the tiger to create cover for the still-present Tiger’s face. Then, I added a solid color to the face and a gradient blend to the tiger and wall, which ends up looking like foliage when it’s green.
