Well, this is a young lyorn. [grin]

(Actually, it *was* a picture of a youthful vizsla (almost a puppy) I 
used as a model for the outline, but I think this works better than some 
of the other images I found. I really like the way the back feet are 
spread out so they can be seen separately in profile.)

This really comes about as close to golden-brown as I can manage using 
web-safe colors. And it is, after all, meant to be just a representation 
of a lyorn, not a picture of one.

I may go back and redesign from scratch again sometime at a later date, 
but I think this is close enough to what I was shooting for, at least 
for right now.
