This is so wonderfully detailed, it seems very realistic even though it's a fantastic creature. I'm especially fond of the claw shading/detail.

Hah! I just noticed you implemented the keyhole/lock preview in your pieces. Never seen that before. Very creative if you ask me. As for this piece, I love the texture of the crocodile skins. However, certain parts of the chimera seem a little strange to me. I understand the stilts part, but it just looks terribly uncomfortable for the creature. Kinda like it doesn't seem possible in reality. Also, this is just a creative opinion by the way, but I kinda feel like having the black hands and feet would look much better if you were to extend it to blacken all the limbs so it would be able connect to it's back armor. That would make more sense to ME, at least. Still though, it looks great.
