SciFi and Fantasy Art Leopard in Trouble? by Rhonda L. Likins


	The Okapi is a creature related to the giraffe but inhabits thick Equatorial forest in Zaire, Africa. For this picture I wanted something attacking it but the only predatory creature I could think of for thick forest was a leopard. This leopard is very young and inexperienced, if he survives the encounter he will know Okapi are too big to take down.

4 Jul 2003	Anonymous	Loading... I LOVE okapi!! Your artwork is sooo cool and unique! But isn't the leopard a bit too small? I like how the animals stand out of the setting.
12 Jul 2003	Anon.	Loading... Its great to see all you other okapi fans, but I'm surprised no one else has mentioned his gait- correct me if I'm wrong but I'm almost positive that like giraffes, okapis simultaneously step with both the front and hind leg on the same side of the body. That would mean that although his legs would look great on a horse, they're in the wrong positions. Just thought you should know, because otherwise its a great pic!
28 Sep 2003	Loz	Loading... wow that is really, really gud... I wish i cud draw stuff like that i think the okapis is ded cute
20 Mar 2004	Lilleah Adora West	Loading... ummm...no mean to be rude, this is great in all, but how the HECK is this a fantasy piece! how did you slip this through the mods!
21 Jul 2004	Blah	Loading... there is tons wrong with this: 1pakis are smaller that that 2:they have horns 3:leopards have bigger PAW LIKE paws(not hands) 4:leopards have bigger heads 5:leopards are predators and they would have their eyes set at the front of their face-not the side 6:the opakis right foreleg looks like it has a string tide there at the top where the elbow is 7:the leopards skull is not shaped like that also only giraffes, cats, and camels have the 'prance' walk andhow did you get this past the mods??they probably aren'nt that bright.
22 Apr 2005	Rita	Loading... Points to the oerson above Ok, newsflash. THESE PICS DON'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT! Must people point out everything? Jeeze! I think it's wonderful. 'Tis probably very small leopard, though.
23 Apr 2005	Kristen	Loading... I love opakis....They are my favorite animal
13 Dec 2005	Anonymous	Loading... Well if you think it is so easy to draw an okapi then why don't you try it and same with the leopord. If you can't then shut your peepers! Any ways i love okapis! this is to mister blah by the way
