Description This was meant to be a speed painting, but it got a little out of hand.

I recently got the wonderful oppurtunity to see The Lion King on broadway ( and a separate chance to meet the cast, but Geoff left before we could), and was inspired so much that I decided to do a fan piece. If I was going to draw the actual actor who played Simba, it would have to be Raize, but unfortunately...it was his 2 year detah anniversary a few days ago, so I forfeited the thought and drew Isru as the adolescent king. It's not a very happy picture, but I thought it fit the mood anyway. I kind of scuffed up on the design because I couldn't really get any clear pictures of it...and no, Simba doesn't have the face paint int he play, that was jsut my messin' around

Soooo, wow, this picture is really...tall. I have this saved as an event file, so if anyone wants to see how I drew this, either note me so I can send it or someone comment here and tell me how to upload it for everyone x.x I really have no idea...

Isru/c me
Lion King/ Disney

Dedicated to the ingenious personas who brought TLK to life, and in loving memory of the talented Jason Raize

I love how you chose to do the savannah setting, instead of something else. That's really lovely.

I love when people draw the broadway costumes but put it in the animal setting. Not done enough, I think. Very lovely detail, great coloring and light.

I'm glad this piece is so long. it gives way to a variety of emotoins as you're scrolling down. first thought was "wow this is well drawn" when i saw the top with the headpiece and his head, then it was "it's so bright golden and regal" when i saw the middle and the intricate corset thing with the blazing sun behind him, then i thought "dark and bloody and sad" when I saw the knife, blood, and dead zebra. it's so nice to have such a range of emotions from one image. it's a very well drawn piece and a very nice tribute to something that touched you. almost makes me wish i could have seen that play. (I do think the corset looks a little like an ear of corn though, which makes me laugh. I hope you're not offended)

Great piece! I love the textures and little details you did on his clothing and the sky is gorgeous!

You said you saw this on Broadway? you mean Broadway in NEW YORK?! You went to New York?!

Isru...damn reminds me of the fanart I still have to finish for you. XD Sorry it's taking me forever but I've been neglecting my art for a while. Just no inspiration and school work is eating my soul. ;_; I promise it will be done....soon I think?
