        I know there's a creature called the sphinx that's similar to this one, but I can't remember off the top of my head if there were ever any kinds that had serpents for tails. Now I'm curious. :D (There are a lot of different sphinxes in mythology and from a lot of countries.)

        Out of curiosity, I looked it up, and it looks like in some versions, the Greek sphinx (most famous for her role in the Oedipus story) had a woman's head (and sometimes breasts), wings, a lion's body, and sometimes a snake for a tail. You might be able to find more pictures of her. Heck, I kind of want to draw her now. :D
