Description
Don't get me wrong, I love the Lion King, I grew up with the Lion King and the other members of the later Disney canon. I used to watch it everyday when I was little (And I'm not exaggerating there.) However, there are certain.... similarities between Disney's The Lion King and Tezuka's (The guy who created Astro Boy) Kimba the White Lion. For more on such hilarious similarities check out this page >>> [link]This was for a competition on [link] -turning a character from their range into a zombie. I've really got my fingers crossed for this comp but then I don't have much luck with comps. Anyway, undead Kimba has risen from deepest, darkest Africa to sort this little matter out. I couldn't really zombify Kimba, I'm sure I'd be arrested.
Anyways, the perspective is waaaay out but otherwise I'm pretty happy with how this worked out. Hurrah!

Well I'm not too familiar with Kimba myself, but I DO know the Lion King very well ( Timon and Pumbaa especially >.> )
The idea of a Lion King meets Day of the Dead is a seriously interesting twist lol. I like the idea and the wall-eyed look (makes that look in the mornings himself ). Nice touch havin em wanderin into the Pridelands lol

disney ripped lionking straight off tezuka, and tezuka sued disney, but coz disneys popular, it won.
and disney still doesnt give tezuka credit.
this picture is great, i hope disney gets whats coming for him.
the butterflies are great

I still don't get the thing that... nevermind.
My fav is the bird. I don't know why, it just is.
How's that for advanced critique?
