Tiger "Day of the dead" Rider!

I've been wanting to combine one of my favorite genres(Fantasy) with one of my new favorite cultural themes "Dias De Los Muertos." I think we always see a lot of fantasy that all seems to be from the same cultures, or the more predictable cultures for warrior fantasy. I think it's awesome to do cultures we don't usually see mixed in with fantasy illustration. There will probably be more pieces accompanying this one. Also, I thought the tiger stripes would be a cool opportunity with the Dias De Los Muertos facial make up style.
