Description

UPDATE: Unfortunately I no longer wish to draw Lion King style art, in-part due to some nasty elements of the fandom. However instead of hiding or deleting my art, I chose to keep it up, so at least people can still view it. If you are interested in my latest artwork you can find some below; just please note if you watch me, I will not be drawing TLK any more.

   

______________________________________________________


This is a sheet for use in The Big AU between myself and

Simba for our AU: I tried to make his adult look more mature than Lion King Simba but still have some of Simba's Pride and Lion Guard in him. Lion Guard colours because they are pretty.

Also Baby Simba in the movie has spots in the cave, but none when he's held up? I am mad, Disney. WHY?!

Feel free to use him but his colours and design were reworked for our AU just so you know C:

You can! Just keep drawing and trying and you'll get better and better each time! Just don't give up and keep learning new stuff and you'll get to the skill level you want in no time

Is it just me or does Kion look a wee bit like Scar? ;D

Yep C: I like the idea of Kion looking like this uncle but instead being really sweet

Honestly, I like that idea a LOT more too.

Please tell me I'm not the only person who loves your version of Kopa. Please.

TheVerdantHare In reply to Claire-Cooper [2015-11-28 14:43:01 +0000 UTC]

I hope not! He's pretty awesome xD Kiire designed him c:



I'm not a fan of book Kopa; Kion is taking all his story because they seem to be reusing a lot of stuff from him. Even more so now I found out there is a book coming out where Kion gets a female hyena friend!
Our Kopa may start out the same but soon after a pretty huge event, he totally changes and grows up into what I can only describe as 'stoner hippy wiseman' type personality. He so laid back, any more and he'd be horizontal! But he's pretty smart and his siblings go to him for advice but they usually go away with a headache from all the metaphors.

Well Kiire did an awesome job. 
The Metaphor King xD 

But still that fluffy mane *hugs* I think he hides secrets in there.

Like mean girls." That's why his mane is so big.. it's full of secrets... shhh."

When we see Simba as a newborn in Sarabi's arms he has 'spots' on his head only, not covering his whole body I'm pretty sure.

No he has spots on his back/side too: pridelands.eu/hd/image2819.htm… But when Rafiki holds him all the spots are gone: pridelands.eu/hd/image2827.htm…
Magic spots o_O'

About his spots in the cave in the beginning of the movie, lion cubs are born with spots and they grow out of them later. C: I hope this helps.

TheVerdantHare In reply to PureSpiritFlower [2015-11-27 12:22:52 +0000 UTC]

I know that they have spots and grow out of them xD I'm quite knowledgeable about lions.  But they can't grow out of them in 2 seconds though; In the Circle Of Life scene he has spots in his mother's arms and then when lifted for all to see has none. Cave: pridelands.eu/hd/image2819.htm… Lifted: pridelands.eu/hd/image2827.htm…
That's what I meant C:
