Where I live it's tough to get to the zoo too often, so when that's not an option I find video reference the next best thing - it gives a much better sense of the action than still images :) Chris: Thanks man, I was definitely trying to capture the strength and force of these creatures, glad you liked them!

When you draw the animal in action, do you just go to the zoo and use them as reference. I just want to know more about your working process. If you don't mind :) Awesome drawing!
