If I met this on a dark night, I would take off running leaving a trail behind me if you know what I mean. Actually, this is a statue honoring all the LSU tigers that have served as mascots of the LSU football teams down through the years. This is located in front of the live tiger exhibit on the LSU campus in Baton Rouge, LA. He did not have any eyes, so I made him one lifting some of the orange color seen on his front leg and then a pupil from inside his ear. Not bad if I say so myself.

You did good with your eye makeup Owd Momma. Good thing you made it orange instead of crimson as in Crimson Tide. Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Good photo and postwork.

The sculptor who made this has got that nasty expression perfectly. Scary looking beast!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

You did a fine job with his eye, Pat. I think it probably made him look quite a bit fiercer than he already was.
