Need Tiger Stripes!

[Shriber]

I have this picture that I created of a mythical creature I've done all I can but need help finishing up the photo. This creature needs a tiger stripe pattern on it, and all I can do is put a mask over it and that just looks terrible. What I wanted was a pattern that warped around the body and fur like an actual animal, with shading and some detail.

Help is much appreciated, thank you.

Something like this?

That's wonderfully done thank you but I have one more thing to ask, that it be colored.

Hahaha my bad inglish strike's again i thoth you mean something like this.

 

[Shriber]

That's also well done. But it's a bit to realistic. I really like IamSam's style, a splash of color and it would be perfect.
No offense to your awesome work friend.
