Personally I prefer the Bengal tiger my self. I think that's the one most people think of when they think about tigers.

Hey Chris, might I suggest another possible look at the back of the tiger? Its subtle, but compared to a lion, Im thinking a tiger's shoulders are a bit more bunched up, and unlike the flatter topline of a lion, a tiger has a bit more spinal arch, suggesting more possible spring. Just a thought what do you think?

Today I made tweaks on our HiveWire Tiger base. Widening the head and other adjustments at Laurie's request. Now that her new House Cat maps are released she's working on this much larger beast and her map work is looking amazing!

Thanks, yeah, I've added in the back arch on the tigers back compared to our Lion.

Just out of curiosity, how's it coming?

Thanks for asking. Yeah, Paul is our rigger for all things HiveWire and he's now fully into this Tiger again. He just wrapped up our Caribou/Reindeer and is dedicated to our Tiger efforts until its completed.

Laurie's map work is gorgeous!! Perhaps she'll consider showing everyone at some point in the future.

Does this mean we can finally get a leopard?? I have been wanting a Snow Leopard for years!! :whistling:

Well... we do still have our Dawn 2 to get out. So after Tiger Paul be back on Dawn 2 and trying to squeeze in the HiveWire Wolf. Many of us are looking forward to that wolf. It's come a long ways and has a great look to it now, and with the maps that Flint Hawk is doing it will be amazing. Also Laurie Prindle is planning to work up her LAMH for Studio.

Oh absolutely! I'm just thinking it's a lot closer now that Paul will be working on the Tiger. :D
