Sculpture of a Tiger relaxing on a rock

…he is calm and balanced, he has everything under control, he is confident in his strength, and there is nothing he worries about…
…the tiger is relaxing…

I created this sculpture very meticulously, with great attention to every detail… well, as I always do :)

Unlike most other sculptures, where the tiger is depicted as a ferocious and aggressive animal, I wanted to present my tiger as a personification of “calm strength”.

This is a personal project, and the digital model was created for producing a physical sculpture using 3D printing technology.

I also created a version without a base — which reflects the original concept — in a slightly different color.
