Reading the title, and understanding it came directly from me, I suppose adds some weight to the actual Leopard Illusion you see below. It’s hard for me to explain how this illusion came to be, without revealing the actual solution, thus ruining the surprise-effect for you. There is much relevant info and background for it, but for now I’ll retain myself just on revealing the author behind it – the magnificent Craig Tracy. First thing you’ll notice is that it’s not some photo of an actual animal, rather a realistically painted picture. But you’re still far from seeing the illusion. Only tip I can give you, is that leopard’s eyes were painted on a concrete floor. I suggest you examine the picture more closely before seeing this final hint. I’ll monitor the forthcoming ratings, and am eager to see if you agree with me that this must be one of the best optical illusions ever created!

its a womens butt as the nose and where the nose splits its two swans looking like there cleaning their wings
if he can do another one but this time the model is facing forward, that would be something to see.
any suggestion what animal will suite the project?
It may be a composite photo/picture, but optical illusion I don’t get.
Jordan,
Lurn two speel.
at the nose you can see a butterfly
Yes the nose is a woman’s butt because part of the leopard is painted on a woman
Not really an illusion, just camoflauge
On the left side and right of the nose ( where the eyes are ) you can see 2 howls :)
haha you guys are hilarious. You cover half the face with your hand and close one eye. and that top part is an owl. Cover just where the nose narrows with your hand.
I’m guessing body paint, since the post is tagged “Body Paint”. I see the woman’s back and butt.
i see a leopard.
Its not an illusion, just painted over the top of something…
Its really beautiful, but not an illusion. Ive seen some that are done with wallpaper patterns and animal prints and things like that which are so exact that the woman ALMOST disappears,but you just have to look for the curves and outline of the woman. because you are putting a 3 dimensional being in front of a two dimensional image, you will be able to distinguish the difference.
Awesome Illusion, I would like to see the Leopard lick his lips. :-P
I don’t think the painter had the idea to create the illusion I thought he just painted the Tiger
I get it!
It’s a woman sitting on the ground, the nose was painted on her, you can see the outline of her body. The eyes and the rest of the facial features are painted on the concrete floor he referenced in the hint, “The eyes are painted on a concrete floor.” So if you can see, it’s a woman sitting on a floor. And the illusion is the woman and the concrete floor forming the illusion of creating a leopard. You’re welcome ;).
being a degreed artist with a love of painting, i’m here to tell y’e all that , “that is one fine ass”
It’s a naked chick and the curve of her ass
