Default African Lion Pattern

I have been looking for a "carving in the round" pattern for the male African Lion. So far, have been unsuccessful. As a new carver, I do not feel accomplished enough to attempt to generate my own pattern from limited pictures. Any recommendations?

Al, Thanks a Bunch!!! I had stumbled on that site about a week ago but just took a cursury look and really didn't see how they were set up. They have several African Lions that I may be able to get the view that I want. SUPER PATTERN SITE!!!

Roger.

Hey Roger, AlArchie pointed you to the perfect site! Be sure to check at your local library for 'picture' references too, or google African Lions to get photos so the colors are right (if you're going to paint him) and also for muscle definition, etc. Good luck, please share some photos when you're done!
