I found these 2 very fine pieces of fanart, don’t know who the artist is…

ENJOY!
You’re right. These two drawings are excellent! Whoever did them definitely knows how to draw in the manga style. I looked as best I could at the signature on the pictures, but all I could make out was that the drawings were dated “2005”. At least, that’s what the date looked like to me. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.:bengali:
i really like them, especially Pumyra, she looks like she had some attitude 
these look a lot like the concept pieces that someone claimed to have been commissioned to do for a possible show
oh these are awesome. they’re by some1 from deviantart who calles themselves “irrydanni” (here’s their pg link http://irrydanni.deviantart.com ).
they did a whole series of these: cheetara, lion-o, bengali, lynxo, etc. etc. all very stylized. & they even added a few of their own characters. really nice stuff.
