This is a wonderful lion! As the designer suggests, you can leave off the mane and have a lioness instead. It would be so easy to create the characters from the Lion King, or work the mane in gold, and youd have the famous Aslan from Narnia. You could also work it with no mane, in black, and youd have Kiplings Bagheera. Lots of possibilities with this one.
