Post your TLK fan-art!

[Azerane]

So here we are, back in the art thread! I thought it was a good reason to do some drawing. In fact, it's been a very long time since I've done any drawing.

Admittedly, I just resurrected an old sketcher pic from last year. It was a sketch that I'd never coloured. So I made it Razzle. =)

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/RazzleTrot.jpg

[Sombolia]

Looks great Azzy. :cheese:

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Sombolia/Kovu.jpg
Here's Kovu from when I was trying to learn how to use Corel Painter... it didn't go so well. xD

[Nuduli]

Wow that's really great Azzy!

And Sombolia, I really like yours too! :D lol though I might see how it didn't turn out all that great :lol:

[Azerane]

Yay, actual fan-art! I make the thread and don't even post a TLK character :p But at least it's a lion. I like Kovu's expression though.

[Nuduli]

I did not draw this, I'm not sure who the original artist is (Rogue?). I found it through my Tumblr. I just thought I'd share because it's simply an amazing piece of fan art! (Perhaps some of you might have seen it before?)

http://i51.tinypic.com/2zr0scy.jpg

[Azerane]

Yeah, looks like Rogue Liger's stuff, brilliant piece of artwork there.

Not to be a stick in the mud, but we probably shouldn't post other people's stuff without their permission, even if we are crediting the original artist.

[Sombolia]

It is by Rogue Liger. Here's the original (http://sombolia.deviantart.com/favourites/39461226?offset=240#/d27kczq).
Beautiful, I love the connections between Kovu and Scar and Simba and Mufasa. Fascinating stuff.

[KanuTGL]

Rogue Liger's work is great. But, no, I really don't like the idea of posting artwork in this thread that isn't made by you.

And as I am nowadays co-Moderator of this section, what I say goes. Mwahahaha :p *ahem* Really though - just don't do it, and things will be a lot easier for us all :3

As for me, this is my latest work:
http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/113/b/a/the_sun_rises_for_us_by_kanutgl-d3enobo.jpg
And I don't think I need to explain the subject :lol:

[nathalie]

Wauw Kanu, that one is absoluty beautiful!

It looks like a handmade painting really ... Stunning.

[Azerane]

That is so gorgeous Kanu, absolutely beautiful work. You can tell there's beautiful inspiration behind it :)

[King Simba]

Beautiful work there Kanu. I must say, that is absolutely stunning, and is probably my favourite piece of artwork by you. :) I love the whole realistic feel to it too. I can really tell why you put so much hard work into this piece. ;)

Nice to see so many new additions to this thread. Everything looks great so far, but yeah, I also agree with what Kanu said about posting other people's artwork here. I don't want to sound like the bad guy but really, this thread is just for your own personal submissions. :uhno: Perhaps if you wanted to recommend an artist, a thread can be made for that. Just a suggestion. :browlift:

[Leorgathar]

That's so beautiful and heartwarming to look at, Kanu :) the placement of the Sun, and the illumination really look fantastic, congratulations ^^

I'm cooking up some drawings to show around here soon as well ;)

[HasiraKali]

Very nice stuff in here, as always. :)

I will probably never post any art in here, because I can't draw at all. But I did this on one of my Easter eggs last night. I thought it came out pretty nice, so I decided to actually share it here, among greatness.

http://i55.tinypic.com/ju8r3m.jpg

It counts as fanart right? Haha. Also, cookies if you can identify what the other eggs represent. :lol:

[Sombolia]

Very nice HK :D

Hmm, I see Mickey Mouse, the Deathly Hallows symbol, and a TARDIS :p

[Simbaspirit]

Kanu that work is beautiful!

Here's an old painting from a few years back. Nothing exciting, just a watercolor of a canon shot, camera phone quality :P

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b93/simbaspirit/photo.jpg

[Revo]

Nice one, Simbaspirit! I am horrid with watercolours so I guess I'm easily impressed, but still I think it looks great. Especially like how Simba and his mane turned out.

[Azerane]

Nice work! I used to loved making decorative eggs for easter, haven't done it in so long though! Must do some next year!

Simbaspirit, nice work with the watercolours, I find them so hard to work with but you've got some nice even colour coverage.

Here's my latest, for Sharifu for her birthday :)

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/SharifuBirthdayGiftSm.jpg

[Leorgathar]

@Simbaspirit: Great job with watercolours! :D And a great scene in the movie too ^^

@Azzy: That's a cool pic! I'm sure Audra'll love it :)

[KanuTGL]

Haha, awesome egg, Manda! I like the TARDIS one too :D

And that's really nice, Simbaspirit - Simba looks great :)

And Azerane, lovely work, as always! I like the simplicity of it :3

Now, this one here is a three-way collab between myself, Leor and KS!
http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/118/1/c/stay_by_kanutgl-d3f48qy.jpg

They drew the sketch for me and TL, but I loved it so much that I just had to colour it ^^ Thanks again, guys!

[King Simba]

Just like I said on DA, it looks really great coloured! In fact, I wasn't expecting there to be a background. :lol: Very nice job in blending the styles too, looks really nice. :) And yay for triple artist signature! :D

[Leorgathar]

Yay! you finished it :D
Your colouring and style makes it look really gorgeous, thanks for collabing with us, I'm glad you liked our outline ;)

[Simbaspirit]

:wow: Kanu that looks awesome!

And thanks guys, I've got to get a tablet sometimes - your computer art is soooooo cool!

[Azerane]

Aww, that collab is so cute! ^^

So... about my image. I blame sleep deprivation, that's all there is to it. Hope you don't mind LKS.

http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/120/f/6/lion_king_stud_by_azerane-d3f8rgh.jpg

[Nuduli]

Everyone on here is so talented! I can't draw, so there'd be nothing from me in this thread, lol. Great work guys. :)

[KovuLKD]

Aha, that's brilliant Azerane!
You've really improved lots throughout the years. :)
Wish i could draw again, this thread always sparks my art cravings.

p.s.: Not too old for studliness afterall eh, Stu? :p

[KanuTGL]

Haha, that's great, Azzy :lol: Good ol' Twi :p

[King Simba]

Ah, Twi... a character I used to draw quite a lot. :p He looks great in your style. :D And I like the bit of text you added there... Lion King STUD! :lol:

[Sombolia]

Awesome collab you guys did, your styles really meshed well. =)

I love that pic Azerane--Lion King Stud! It's appropriate. :lol:

[Guntur]

Hah Stu. :lol: Great art there Azzy.

[Simbaspirit]

I got a tablet today.. here's my first ever computer drawing!! :D
the resolution of the scan was pretty low so its quite pixelated and it looks pretty bad :cringe: but hey, it can only get better right?

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b93/simbaspirit/firsttry.jpg

[Revo]

Congrats on getting a tablet :D ! Digital art will become atleast 200% more fun to do from now on. ;)
That looks great for a first tablet picture. I remember when I first tried out my tablet, I was no better with it than a mouse, haha. It took me quite a while to get used to looking at the screen while drawing on the tablet. After getting used to that, it becomes almost as natural as drawing on paper. Almost, but not quite :p. But it is tons more versatile and convenient than paper.

[Leorgathar]

Lion King STUD! ... Brilliant! :lol:

That's a good start for being your first digital drawing, SS :) I can relate, since I'm experimenting with my newly acquired tablet too (Thanks again a real lot, KS ;)), but it's taking me a good effort to get used to it, I'm still very familiar with paper :lol: but I'll get there

[King Simba]

That's a great first attempt at using a tablet, SS. :D I remember when I first got a tablet (which is now property of Leor now ;)) I would find it very different to drawing on paper, and I found it weird getting used to looking at the computer screen and not down at the tablet like I did when I drew on paper. Sometimes I still draw on paper now and use my tablet just for colouring and outlining actually.

You'll both get the hang of it eventually, and then you'll see that getting a tablet was one of the best things to happen to you. :)

That said, I should start drawing again too. It's starting to get to me that I have no motivation to really draw again... :woe:

[Azerane]

That's fantastic simbaspirit! :D Don't worry about the quality, all that will improve as you get used to using your new toy and find and experiment with new ways of doing things.

Here's my latest, a sketch I drew today on the ride home from Gluepot (a park), just sketching with a pen.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v495/Azerane/LiononRock.jpg

[Simbaspirit]

thanks guys! I'm working on my second one and its much much better. and :wow: Azerane that looks amazing!

[Sombolia]

That's really good Simbaspirit! I'm sure you'll be an expert in no time. :D

Wow Azzy, that's really cool. :) I love ballpoint pen pics for some reason.

[King Simba]

That's great to hear, SS. I'm glad your new tablet is turning out to be some good use. :)

Azzy, that looks great! I like the whole realistic feel to it. ;)

Now, time for some new art from me.

This is a collab of some sorts with Kanu. :D And is also the picture you can see in my avatar.

I ended up reaching a milestone after viewing her profile on the old Lea, so she drew a sketch for me. I offered to colour it way back after she uploaded it, back in August last year. And since I've been going through a bit of a rough patch in finding ideas for drawings lately, I decided I'd like to colour it, just to put some use into my tablet again, and make a new submission here. I'm quite happy with the turnout. :mufasasmile:

It also comes in good timing as today is mine and Leor's 21st month together, so we're just 3 months away from our 2 year anniversary now. ^^ So this is some sort of gift for him too. :)

And yay, double signature! xD

http://th02.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2011/131/b/6/romantic_sunset_by_kingsimba-d3g3bd1.jpg

[KanuTGL]

Aww, yay! I was wondering if you were ever going to colour it :p I'm happy to see it finished; your colouring is as lovely as ever :)

Looking good there too, SS! Keep up the good work! =D

And Azzy, a beautiful picture, as always! ^^

[Leorgathar]

Oh, this took me totally by surprise! :wow:
Thank you so much, sweetheart, I love you so much :love: And thanks for making the drawing, Kanu, it's very lovely :hugs:

[King Simba]

Thanks you two, I'm glad you both like the finished result. :) :hugs:


Thank you so much, sweetheart, I love you so much :love:
Aww... :aww: You're very welcome. I love you too. :love:

[Simbaspirit]

Here is my second ever tablet drawing :D

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lm3dxvC8B21qe4f3ao1_500.jpg

[Leorgathar]

That's very lovely, SS, good job :)

Oh wow, is your fursona a male lion? just like KS's? :lol:

[Simbaspirit]

Thanks Leor! And yes, my fursona has always been male :) well, technically female, but with a mane :lol: I just like drawing manes, and don't always like the look of lionesses, and I figured if I'm gonna be a lion who says I have to stick to the rules :p. Although now that I'm drawing my fursona with Gunner it does look a little off :lol:

[Leorgathar]

Haha well, I can relate of course :lol: my fursona, Coatl, is a male jaguar in love with a male lion. High five for not sticking with the rules :kovusmile: *high fives*

It has never bothered me in any way, I'm pretty much used to it now, and now I find it kinda cool :lol:

[Sombolia]

Male fursonas ftw! :lol:

You're really improving SS, very nice :cheese:

[King Simba]

Yay, I'm glad to see there's someone else out there who has a male fursona. :D Or at least a female fursona with a mane. I have the same reasons for that as you, SS. I always preferred drawing male lions than female ones, so the idea just kind of stuck there. It's brought a bit of confusion with regards to my gender over the past few years, and people seem to wonder if Coatl is the female of the two. :wtf: So I have to confirm that they're both males, but I'm female. :p I don't mind it anymore either. I'm very much used to it, but let's hope it doesn't happen to you. :lol:

Is your fursona the one with the white mane? :curious: That's quite a significant improvement from the first tablet picture you posted here. Well done! :cheese:

[Azerane]

Thanks everyone. Beautiful image KS, and SS, just saw that one over at DA, very nice indeed, I think it's really cute. I miss drawing pics of Pat and my characters, I used to all the time. So it's really sweet seeing other's couple pics. :)

I wandered over to TLKFAA sketcher today, the result: (probably would have benefited from a different coloured b/g)
http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/CubNala.jpg

[Sombolia]

We should have a male fursona club :haha:

That looks great, Azerane! Shading on light colors is such a pain for me. You really pulled it off.

[KanuTGL]

Aww, that looks really sweet, SS ^^ That is indeed some quite significant improvement from your first tablet drawing; well done! :D

I have one male fursona too :haha: Though you hardly see much of him these days. Poor, neglected Axell D:

And Azerane, that looks lovely ^^ I don't mind the white background, I actually think it fits in rather well with the pale colouring :)

[bouncey]

here's some of my lion king fan art! you can view my fan art gallery here : http://www.animationsource.org/lion_king/en/fanart/TLKGIRL98/17501.html

[Simbaspirit]

Thanks guys! Woot for male fursonas :D Yep, mine's the one with the white mane :) and Azerane, I actually really love it just on a white background - it makes her look so pure. Bouncey, those look real good!

[bouncey]

thanks. drew them free hand ! XD

[Azerane]

For Pat, because June 13th is our 5 year anniversary. I wasn't going to post it anywhere yet, but I don't think he looks on Lea to be honest. I was so pleased with it when I was first working on it. But now that it's done, I feel like it's really lacking and it just makes me dissapointed because I wanted it to be perfect. But I guess it's been so long since I've done much art. Anyway, here it is. =)

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/AllINeedToKnowSm.jpg

[Simbaspirit]

awwwwwwwwww I love it so much! That's so sweet!

[KanuTGL]

Awww, that's really lovely, Azzy! ^^ I think it looks wonderful :) And congratulations in advance on your 5 years together! :hugs:

[King Simba]

Aww, now that is really cute. :) Big congratulations to you both for (almost) reaching 5 years together. May you be together for many more years. :hugs:

[Leorgathar]

So lovely and beautiful, Azzy, it brought a smile on my face today :)
Congrats on your 5 years together! you'll be together again real soon :hugs:

[Safila]

Aww that's really sweet, your art is awesome, I have still have my pic mum commissioned you to do a few years back too :cheese:

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_76uxC32GV_I/TUKmen1sRYI/AAAAAAAAABs/7pLd46hxWnc/s1600/Chocolates2.jpg Congrats on your 5 years too .

[Azerane]

Thanks so much everyone :D Oooh, yummy choccies! Glad you still have that pic Safila :)

And now, here's some actual lion king fanart. Mufasa, in all his boring-sitting-pose glory! :p

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/MufasaSm.jpg

[Safila]

Another uberawesome pic :cheese:

[Sombolia]

Lovely pieces Azzy, and congrats on 5 years! :)

[SimbaRules]

heres a couple of pics i did years ago!


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v517/dolphininfurno/image-6.jpg


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v517/dolphininfurno/mufassaandscar.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v517/dolphininfurno/Simba-1.jpg


think i'll have a go at doing more

[Azerane]

So good to see some more artists around the place :D Pics are looking good, Scar has that typical sarcastic, unamused expression :p Can't wait to see some more recent stuff! :D

[SimbaRules]

yes scar is unimpressed with mufassa. im afraid theres no recent work but indeed i shall draw more

[Azerane]

What's this? More fan art, no way!! :idiot:

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/ScarAndZazuFinSm.jpg

[Nuduli]

Ooh I like that one, Azzy! Of course I like yours and everyone's work. XD

[Namazzi]

hey, i like that one! it looks good =P

[Simbaspirit]

Azzy those both look great! I love Taka's pose - it conveys his whole attitude.

[Leorgathar]

Azzy! both of your works are good, I like the colours you used in them :)

[King Simba]

Oh wow, you're on fire with your uploads lately, Azzy. I wish the same could be said about me. :lol: I like the one you just posted, especially the bright and bold colours in there. Again, Scar has his typical "dry" expression. The Mufasa one is great too, I struggle to draw him myself. Great job. ^^

And what's this? New artwork from KS? Never! :gasp:

Now time for something a little more traditional. ;)

Last Monday I bought myself a new sketch book, and I couldn't help but use that as an excuse to try my hand on working on some new pictures (like I said in the Art Dilemma Thread, it really helps to try out something new when you're going through an art block). This time I decided to use my Graphic Soft pencils instead and do something a bit more traditional.

Here, you can see Katai (it's Katai, not Simba, as you can see with the little tuft of hair in the middle of his forehead ;)) making his way across some mountains and lakes. I could've really done with my 9B pencil for some darker shades (it broke a while ago :woe:) but I'm happy with the contrast and shading in general. So much that I've framed it on my wall too. :D The sky could be a bit better though, I think.

And I'll let you in on a secret... an eraser comes in very handy for lighter tones. Smudging with a tissue is good too. :secret:

Click here for the full version. (http://kingsimba.deviantart.com/art/Journey-Among-The-Sun-212945895) :)

[Safila]

all your pics are awesome :cheese:

[Leorgathar]

It's a really gorgeous drawing, as I said before :cheese: I love your shading technique with pencils, it's really good ;)

[Azerane]

Thanks so much everybody!! :D

KS, that pic is amazing! I do miss using traditional media but I just need to have the patience for it, plus it's harder on my hand/elbow. You've done a fantastic job with the shading, I love how his mane turned out and his eyes, very cool! :cheese:

[KanuTGL]

That looks really nice, KS :) I love the shading, especially on the mane and background! ^^

Silly crossover fan art time :idiot:
http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/171/1/9/tron__satoba_by_kanutgl-d3jet6p.jpg
I watched the Tron films. I wanted to draw Satoba. This happened :lol:

[Simbaspirit]

:wow: that is soooooo freaking awesome!! :D

[KanuTGL]

This thread is too quiet - we need more art! :p

Here's one of my recent "big ones":
http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/194/e/f/one_destiny_by_kanutgl-d3oxufi.jpg
A commission for Levin of his two characters, Levin and Velix :) Firefox-users, right click and select "View image" to see the full version. I don't know how to do it in other browsers... xD

[Leorgathar]

That came out quite good, I really like it :) I read part of Levin's story when he was writing it, and I quite enjoyed it, I wonder how far has he gone now :ooo:

Gawd, I should get myself into drawing more, or at least finish the drawings I have on hold :woe:

[Safila]

They are really awesome kanu =)

[KanuTGL]

Many thanks, you two! ^^

[saitenyo]

You guys are making me really want to draw more TLK art again. There's so much awesome art in this thread.

I don't do as much TLK stuff these days, but here's a commission I did for Talfasi recently:
http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/189/7/0/talfasi_commission_by_saitenyo-d3lfr6k.jpg

[Lweek]

That looks really nice, KS :) I love the shading, especially on the mane and background! ^^

Silly crossover fan art time :idiot:

Very nice! If You give it more space around and post it in larger resolution I would be happy to put it on my desktop as wallpaper. :D

It is sad You don't draw more like this but it is understandable. :-)

[Talfasi]

I don't do as much TLK stuff these days, but here's a commission I did for Talfasi recently:

OMGZ!

It still makes me cheerful to see this picture! I'm so glad that you made it. I've always considered myself an avid supporter of arts, but I still find it remarkable how some pieces, such as this, can lift the corners of your mouth upwards in a smile and make you notice how your mood is being altered. It's that distinct feeling that can arise from listening to music or watching paintings, for example, and I find it very rewarding.

Now, to be more direct..

*clears throat and imitates Iago faking Jafar in Aladdin*

On a scale from..
nub |<---------------->| hax

You are:
nub |<---------------->| hax ... X<-- ace!

:lalala:

[saitenyo]

Haha thanks Talfasi! :)
I am feeling inspired to draw more TLK art after that piece too. Hopefully I can find the time to do some soon.

[Revo]

Kanu.. although I already said this on DA, I find that comission for Levin absolutely epic.

Saitenyo, that pic is just cheerful :). Makes me smile just looking at it.

[KanuTGL]

Thank you, Lweek and Revo :)

And Saitenyo, your art is so lovely. I've been silently admiring it for a long time now :p

[cleargreenwater]

...I made a fanart!


It's pretty standard but it's so infrequently I do anything, especially colored canon, anymore.


http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b288/cleargreenwater/endlessnight.jpg


Crayons, chalk pastels, color pencil and acrylic on 9x12 Watercolor paper. :-)

[Leorgathar]

That's pretty good, CGW! :D Nice mix of colouring materials you used ^^

[King Simba]

I agree, it's simple yet effective. I like it. :)

[KanuTGL]

That's really nice, CGW ^^ It reminds me of the TLK story concept drawings :)

This one is sort of semi-canon :P

http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/290/c/c/the_queen_s_sister_by_kanutgl-d5i2tmb.png

Naanda, one of Sarabi's sisters from a couple of early Lion King scripts. I'm stupidly happy with the design I made of her, even though it's based very much on Sarabi-concepts... :lol:

[cleargreenwater]

Thanks guys! It was the concept art that inspired me to try bigger (& messier!) than usual and opt for sloppy, glorious real media!

And I love your Naanda. Why let a good design go to waste in a slosh pile, and I really like that you gave her the "family" build, too, one of Sarabi's nicest design characteristics & always a pleasant change from the longer, leaner Nala build :-)

(Also, kudos for the tremendous ability to actually portray different body types in art at all, LOL!)

[Azerane]

Love that sort of concepty stuff CGW, looks great.

Fantastic image Kanu, looks really great :)

[Sombolia]

I've missed seeing your guys' art in this thread!! Everything looks great :D

[KanuTGL]

Thank you very much! :hugs:

[King Simba]

Looks great, Kanu. She's very pretty. :)

New art from me. Just Simba in all his adulthood glory:
http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/317/5/0/simba_by_kingsimba-d5kwkag.png

[Leorgathar]

@Kanu: Not sure if I already commented it somewhere, but Naanda looks so adorable ^^ I can see you drew the dorsal strip Sarabi was supposed to have, nice detail :ooo:

@KS: Great work with Simba, I love his face and the fluffiness of his mane :D

[Sombolia]

Looks great KS!! Very on-model and I always love the vivid colors you use ^^

[King Simba]

Thank you to you both. :hugs:

Here's a couple more, just to keep this thread alive. :p

http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2012/319/1/0/entering_the_cave_by_kingsimba-d5l2yz0.jpg

http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/320/1/5/sarabi_by_kingsimba-d5l6e8t.png

[Sombolia]

I saw Simba with the background on DA, it's gorgeous! Again, I love the vivid colors and your bgs are always so lush and vibrant, they're awesome to look at.

[cleargreenwater]

Yeah, I love the Simba one. I love water being a feature of TLK pictures because its such a basic sign of good times in the savannah and it's such a happy picture with Simba frolicking & bounding around in it!

[KanuTGL]

Thought I'd poke at this thread a little :lol:

http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/044/8/e/valentine_by_kanutgl-d5uuatg.jpg

This year's sappy Valentine's drawing... :idiot:

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/KanuTGL/DoomsdayFAA.jpg

Aaand the biggest drawing in terms of character count I've made in years and years. Only Sumai (central, red, orange-and-black-maned fellow) is actually my own character, the rest belong to the ones who responded to my cameo request, haha. The bigger version is too big to post here, but take a look on my dA if you like! http://kanutgl.deviantart.com/art/Doomsday-Ascending-356266890

[Leorgathar]

I already commented the first one, it's really sweet and heartwarming, it brings a lovely calm feeing :)

As for the second one, the effort put on it is pretty evident. You're very talented in character poses, and the balance of colors too ;)
Sumai is quite the leader there, I like that... lion-y big cat (or whatever he is :lol:)

[Sadiki]

The first picture is very sweet and artistic, in all it's simplicity it's able to capture the essence of love :cheese:

What comes to the second picture, I don't know anything about the story behind the drawing, but I always liked the way you color your art, such detail. I also like it how you made it seem like the perspective is on the character on the middle by making everything else more or less out of focus. Well done ;)

[Kasei]

Those are both so awesome, Kanu. :3 I too actually have some TLK fan art to share due to valentines day. Timitu's secret santa usually helps me get something cannon-based out at least somewhat annually. x3

Kanu: As usual, both of your pictures look really great. In the first one the mood is captured wonderfully, and in the second one, the whole concept is just amazing. I really like how you blurred out the characters who are the closest, it really gives a sense of perspective. :D

Kasei: That looks really nice. I like the effect you did with the water and the moonlight shining on Simba and Nala's body. You should post more stuff. ;)

As for me, I've just started working on something new which I'll post here when it's finished (I haven't drawn much this year, I'm in a bit of an art block. Ugh. :woe:)

[KanuTGL]

Thank you so much, everyone! :)

Kasei, that's so beautiful ^^ Wonderful work on the shading and the water, and I like how the foliage kinda "frames" the characters. That they're very well drawn too goes without saying :p

Who says you can't be happy when it rains? :psst:

[Azerane]

Can't believe how amazing everyone's art is :)

Kanu, would it be rude to say that I like the sketchy one of you and TL better? :p It's a lot more raw, and nice :)

Love your painterly technique Kasei

And KS, Simba does look very happy, nice work on the colour scheme too, I'm terrible at those.

I drew something too, speed paint type thing of Zazu for the current archive contest.

[KanuTGL]

Haha, no, it wouldn't :p They are done in entirely different styles, so it's a matter of preference, really :lol: I kinda prefer the sketchy one too anyway, haha

Really nice work on the colours, KS! :) Keep working on that anatomy; remember the tail connects to the spine ;)

And yours looks very cool, Azzy! I really like the texture and the style you've used for Zazu =D

Thanks Azzy. ^^ As for yours, it looks great. Nice textures and style for Zazu, like Kanu said. :)

Also, a tip... for the colour scheme, just use a screenshot from the movie as reference. I copied and pasted one of Simba from here (http://pridelands.eu/hd/folder31.html) and also took the colours for the background and Pride Rock. ;)



Really nice work on the colours, KS! :) Keep working on that anatomy; remember the tail connects to the spine ;)

Thanks. :)

As for the anatomy, half of his tail is actually supposed to be hidden by his body, but I guess I didn't place the perspective well. :hehe: Anatomy isn't one of my strong points, hehe.

If you want some help with it I'm always happy to provide feedback as much as I can, if you want me to :3 Which reminds me, I need to write up that critique thread again since the original was lost :'D

[Azerane]

Thanks everyone :) I had fun with it, though Zazu's face is always hard to do in my opinion.

[Azerane]

Just going to maybe um... brag a little here :lol:

I completed Pg 1 of a comic that these silly lion king characters in my head won't let me leave alone!! I have about 10 pages sketched, not much, I know. But I'm looking forward to it, despite the taking over of the brain part :p Here's hoping it doesn't fizzle out before I get to the whole interesting part, or just not fizzle out at all would be good too.
http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/TLKGenerationsP1P1sm.jpg

[Simbaspirit]

oh that's beautiful! Can't wait to see more :D

[Sombolia]

Yay, comics! :D I wouldn't know personally, but those seem like quite an endeavor. Good luck, looking forward to seeing more :)

[KanuTGL]

Oooh, nice, Azzy! :D I look forward to reading more! I've been wanting to try my hand at making a comic too, but I never get particularly far before I give up... xD

[Utora]

I have this OCD about using TLK stock art to influence my own art; I like to be unique, like most artists. I don't want to use it.
Issue is, I haven't drawn anything very TLK in a long time, except Mufasa; he didn't turn out to my liking.


I blew up a stock art just to get the first photo of me and Lweek drawn together; created a new vector and modified the faces, etc..
So the base is copyright to Disney.


I'm the type of person who has to do a few observation runs (mimicking or duplicating original) before the style is memorized and I can implement it into my own without using stock.
So, for the future I hope to get better; until now, oh well.

118

[Azerane]

D'aww, that's so sweet. The faces do look nice, really clean lines. Never thought Lweek was that dark, but I do like the colours. :D

[Utora]

D'aww, that's so sweet. The faces do look nice, really clean lines. Never thought Lweek was that dark, but I do like the colours. :D


Thanks. :cheese:

His avatar here is orange-ish.....but his other character refs are brown so, "Cappuccino Lion". :lol:

[Azerane]

Ahh cool, I suppose it's just the interpretation of colour pencils, it can be hard to match colours right.

[Lweek]

Awww, it is so sweet http://leahalalela.org/images/Lea%20smilies/th_embarassed-1.png I like it very much. It doesn't matter it is inspired by stock image. http://leahalalela.org/images/Lea%20smilies/th_love.png

Azerane: I'm dark brown with creamy belly and caramel mane. Picture I have in my profile is not corectly colored. I think Olven (author of that image) tried to do my persona creatively. I think it is alright. As a photographer I know that colors are individualy changing with light so she drew me in a sunset or something. :D

[Lion King Stu]

Ok so I know this isn't totally TLK and technically this isn't a piece that I have drawn myself but it was one I put in a commission for a few weeks back with a wonderful artist called Doffa off of Fur Affinity, it's anthro Twilight as a post apocalyptic cowboy in Fallout New Vegas for which of those who don't know is a video game I used to play a lot of on the PS3 and PC.

I think it looks really awesome and though I'd share with you all :cheese:
Hope you guys and gals think the same ^^

http://nitrol-pl.deviantart.com/art/The-Lion-Knight-411764350
My first pixelart ever. ;D
I'm not an artist, I don't usually draw, so it taken me some time (about 3-4h, srsly xD).

On the armor you can see coat of arms of Poland (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e4/Coat_of_arms_of_Poland-official3.png/508px-Coat_of_arms_of_Poland-official3.png). It was quite hard to draw it so small. ;)

[KanuTGL]

Looks cool, Nit! :D I love pixel art and I especially like how you managed to get the Polish coat of arms on there; so small but still clearly the coat of arms!

Otherwise this thread's been kinda dead, hasn't it? xP I've only been uploading commissions all summer and autumn and I don't think people here are too interested in those, haha.

[Nit]

Thanks, Kanu. :3


Otherwise this thread's been kinda dead, hasn't it?
Yeah, pretty much dead. ;P

[Azerane]

Looks very cool Nit :) I think pixel art usually takes a long time anyway, but you've done a great job, everything's well defined.

[Kasei]

Super cute pixel art, I like it! And also, I shall doodle a TLK thing just to re-activate the thread! *scuttles off to go draw something*

Edit: *reappears* Okay, well it's not done but hopefully I'll have some time to finish it soon. WIP Muffy chasin' some hyenas. :3

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v142/KaseiTomodatchi/muffyattack_zps0a7d5ac5.png

[Leorgathar]

@Nit: Hey, that's pretty cool! :D I recognized the Polish coat of arms instantly. It might be strange but for some reason I didn't know you were from Poland, I got to live there for a little less than a year, so that's great xD

@Kasei: I gotta say, I really like your doodles, and this one is no exception. That's a great perspective drawing ^^

Hmm I don't know why, but I never posted my most recent TLK work here. Some of you have seen it already, but I'll show it here anyway, for the sake of keeping this thread alive, yep ;)

http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2013/254/f/b/running_in_the_pridelands_by_leorgathar-d6lz3xn.jpg

[Azerane]

Fantastic work guys. Kasei, that's such a dynamic sketch, part of why I love your art is there's always so much movement and balance in it.

Leor, it's looking great, the background looks great and little Simba looks so happy running along :)

[Nit]

hopefully I'll have some time to finish it soon
I hope so too. It looks really promising. :D

[Kasei]

Aiiiieee, cute little Simba doodle! x3 And thanks you guys! My time for the internet comes and goes, but somewhere in there I'd like to finish it before the contest on TLKFAA is over. e_e

[KanuTGL]

Looks awesome, Kasei! The perspective is so well done :D

And you know I love that drawing, Leor, haha! It looks really great ^^

[Nit]

I made it about a year ago, but it's still the best work of mine:
http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2012/269/9/f/trojwymiarowy_prezent_urodzinowy_dla_malaiki4_x3_b y_nitrol_pl-d5fzk9q.png
Malaika4's head sculpted in Sculptris. :3

[KanuTGL]

That looks really nice, Nit! :D I tried to learn Sculptris once, but it didn't go very well... xD

And I finally have something worth posting in here... ish... xD

Saturday the 23rd was Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary, so I couldn't let that go by without drawing something to commemorate it :P

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/KanuTGL/50YearsLegacy.jpg

According to a "Which Doctor are you?"-quiz I took I am the First Doctor, so Kanu has dressed accordingly :D

[Kasei]

Neeeeat! I love this! x3 And the 3D Lioness is awesome as well. D:

[Nit]

@KanuTGL: Doctor Who <3 Love it! :3
@Kasei: Thank you! :)

[Azerane]

Woah, 3D, very cool :D

And cool pic Kanu, I love those painterly pics with nice textures :)

Have an advent calendar Simba :cheese:

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent1Simbasm.jpg

[KanuTGL]

Thanks, you two! ^^

And aww, advent calendar Simba looks adorable, Azzy! =D

[cleargreenwater]

Omg, Advent Simba *is* adorable :D

[Azerane]

Thanks guys :D

Here's day two... it's only after looking back at it a few hours after completion that I realise why the anatomy looks stupid (shoulder too far forward). Oh well, they're only quick things :p Still, it's one of my better looking Vitani pics

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent2Vitanism.jpg

[Azerane]

More advent art poops :p

Day 3: http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent3Scarsm.jpg

Day 4: http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/AdventZazu4sm.jpg

[Kasei]

Errrmmmm!! I'm loving these! :D Do you plan on doing one every day up to Christmas? What a fun idea! I tried something like that once but it was way too ambitious for the time I had available to me (12 days of Christmas with TLK characters...got up to 11th day and had to stop because I was drawing 60+ characters in one picture. @_@

[Leorgathar]

Oooh these are so fantastic, Azzy! an art TLK advent calendar, what an idea! :D

And lovely way to celebrate Doctor Who's 50th anniversary, Kanu. Me likes ;)

[KanuTGL]

Hehe, I'm looking forward to your doodles every day now, Azzy :lol: They're really cute!

And thanks, Leor! :D

[s-tlk]

That's really a great idea and beautiful art. I like it very much, especially Scar. He looks like I feel. Nice contrast between the traditional Christmas feelings most people experience and his character. :-D

[Azerane]

Thanks so much guys :D It's eating up way more time than I intended each pic too, but what can you do.

I finally finished yesterday's pic. Didn't have time for it yesterday since I was at work then went over to my mum's. But here it is, will work on todays in a little bit after I've taken a break :)

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent5Edsm.jpg

[cleargreenwater]

Cuuuuute :D And considering how infrequently most of us draw anymore, this is a very ambitious undertaking, good luck! So far so good, go-go-go! XD

[Azerane]

Cuuuuute :D And considering how infrequently most of us draw anymore, this is a very ambitious undertaking, good luck! So far so good, go-go-go! XD

Ambitious... tell me about it :lol: It's amazing how difficult it is to find the time to do one everyday. Which I've already failed at because there were two days this week when I simply wasn't home all day!

Still, I got two completed today, and should have time for another two tomorrow and I'll be all caught up :)

6: http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent6Sarabism.jpg

and 7: http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent7Timonsm.jpg (Timon is so unbelievably impossible to draw, I spent sooo much time on the sketch)

Edit:

Can't believe how many hours I spent on number 8.... http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent8Kovusm.jpg

[s-tlk]

Can't believe how many hours I spent on number 8.... http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent8Kovusm.jpg
... but it was worth it. I simply love it. ^^

I hope you can keep it up to the 24th of December, which is still a long way to go. :)
What I would like to see is, Zira and Scar trying to build a snowman. xD

[Azerane]

Thanks so much. I'm really proud of it too, I guess the time spent shows :P

Given the number of characters and number of days left, I had thought to do some paired characters after I'd done the individuals, so will see how it goes :)

Finished this one last night but forgot to add it in: http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent9Sarafinasm.jpg

[KanuTGL]

Still looking great, Azzy! I second s-tlk about the 8th. My favourite so far!! :D

[Safila]

They all look awesome.. I still have that pic you did for me from a few years back that mum commissioned you to do :D

[Azerane]

:embarassed: Wow, thanks so much guys :)

I remember that Safila :) So glad you still have it.

Yay, only 5 more to go. You're doing great, Azerane! Thanks for sharing your pictures with us :)

[Azerane]

Thanks Kirauni, it has certainly been a bit of an endurance test.

Number 20: http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Advent20Hyenassm.jpg Only four more to go *dies*

[Simbaspirit]

These are AMAZING!! You should maybe consider selling a downloadable printable advent calendar next year on etsy or something - so many people would enjoy this, I'm sure.

[s-tlk]

Hey, there is my snowman. :-)
It's a great idea to include Scar like that and I like your art style. Thank you very much for sharing and I hope you find the endurance to finish the last four.

Yep, that's your snowman :D I thought of them building one and then the idea of Scar being inside it popped into my head. :)

[Azerane]

Most of you will probably see this elsewhere, but this is the picture I drew for Safi for the lilymud secret santa. Her character Miro is an African Civet, a first time drawing for me :)

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Lilymud2013SecretSantaForSafism.jpg

[KanuTGL]

It looks beautiful, Azzy :) I love the shading again, it's so soft and the whole picture blends together very nicely. Awesome work ^^

I drew for Pamuya in the Lilymud Secret Santa. Lots of fun! :D

[Azerane]

Wow, Kanu... love the lighting. The water is so dynamic, I can't even begin to imagine how you did that or how long it took! Very difficult angle on the face too but you've mastered it :)

[Azerane]

My 800th image uploaded to TLKFAA :D

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Azerane/Razzle800sm.jpg

[KanuTGL]

Thank you, Azzy! ^^

And yay! Congrats on 800 uploads! :D

[Azerane]

Thanks :D I feel like maybe I should have tried harder but... :p I'll do that for 1000 :lol:

[Azerane]

Because I love you guys (and completely not because I'm impatient about sharing it) here's a preview of the pic I'm doing for the current TLKFAA art contest about musicals. :D I'm actually 90% done, but it has just taken me so long already that I needed a break from it. I hid the colour layers to keep you in suspense :p There's no give-aways in the pic, but if you guess the right musical you get a cookie :D

Edit: Finished :D http://fanart.lionking.org/piccomments.cgi?Azerane+BloodMoneyKovuFinsm.jpg

[Azerane]

More art! I've done a few trades recently, but I won't share those. It was Pat's birthday today and I drew him a picture of Kintaru :) I had trouble blending his tail strips into the white and getting it to look natural, so I just left them as solid bars :lol: Lazy, I know :p

Ugh, still not working... just have the link :p

I can't view that previous link you posted, it says it's not public, I log in, and it says your entire profile isn't public.

[Azerane]

Weird, they've worked before. Will change it, thanks Nath :)

[KanuTGL]

Finally made something worth posting here :lol:

http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2014/044/3/0/son_of_simba_by_kanutgl-d76a2ns.jpg

It's a Kopa! C:

[cleargreenwater]

Wooo, Kopa! Very cute, love his hairstyle X3

[Leorgathar]

He looks adorable :) and yeah, cool hairstyle xD

I did this one by the end of January, they're both me and Tara's lion fursonas, Kareem and Kilima.
I'll try to stay true to my promise of making a full finished and coloured drawing at least every month this year ^^

http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2014/032/7/c/the_night_is_ours_by_leorgathar-d74m7jq.jpg

[ThiagoPE]

wow, i see a lot of talented artists here. my congratulations for you all!

[Azerane]

Awesome Kopa :D Did you draw him on your Cintiq? How are you liking it?

And such a sweet pic Leor :) Reminds me I have to get off (or is it on?) my butt and draw something in the next few days for Pat.

[KanuTGL]

Thanks, everyone! :) And yes, I drew him on the Cintiq! And it's awesome :D

I've commented on dA before about that picture, Leor, and I still think it's super sweet. I absolutely love their expressions ^^

[King Simba]

Bumping this thread up a bit... :p

[Utora]

Wow KS, I'm envious of yourstyle, it's very much like to the TLK movie style!


All I have is a computer mouse, and microsoft paint was used for the first and last one...
I just made some rough Mufasa cub stuff, nothing fancy.

http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/359/5/6/gift_wrapped_by_kingsimba-d8b7doh.png

First picture using my new Intuos. I gotta play around with it more... there are so many features to get used to. :kovusmile:

[lionobsession]

King Simba - that drawing is adorable! If only I had Simba for Christmas!

[Leorgathar]

I'll post this here this time instead of in the non-TLK Art thread. I think it still qualifies :p
I wanted to draw Coatl as a little cub, so here he is :cs_grin:

Oh wow, that does look realistic and true to the original animation. Bravo KS, Bravo.

[Leorgathar]

Hey guess what, I'm finally doing some canon TLK art! :p

This one I made for this Valentine's Day (I always do a Valentine's Day drawing, even when I'm single :'D). I really like how it turned out :)

http://orig08.deviantart.net/fa0b/f/2016/044/b/3/b3ab5c7528b6428a8197e847d4bac137-d9rodit.png


Aaand I made this one of Dogo earlier this week before the Kupatana episode aired. I couldn't resist drawing him, he's so adorable x3
https://40.media.tumblr.com/26cabae1081f3565cee9ecd51c2fd56e/tumblr_o2efu1iY9c1uxy28zo1_1280.jpg

[Kasei]

Those look great Leor! Also, you drew Dogo so on model, he looks super cute. xD Too bad he turns out to be a bit of a stinker.

[Leorgathar]

Thanks Kasei ^^ and yeah, I hope Dogo gets a chance to redeem himself, he's an adorable little devil xD

I took the Kion sketch I did for the Sketch-a-character thread and turned it into this today. Since there was no new TLG episode this week, I thought I'd make this to help dealing with the long wait for next one :)
I feel I could have done a better work with the cloud-lions, but I still really like how it turned out.

http://orig01.deviantart.net/5ab1/f/2016/065/8/a/8ab1686065abf68d7d7ffb40e65701ce-d9u25j5.jpg

[Guntur]

Lovely Leor, I really love it.

[Stormfury]

Yea...that TLG artwork is 11/10! ^-^

[Sharifu]

Leor, love your artwork. Your Kiara and Kovu Valentine's Picture is lovely. It's so nice to get a positive view of Valentine's Day even though you are currently single. The idea of Valentine's Day is sweet, I thought so too even when I was single. I can't help but think it's weird that people hate Valentine's Day when they are single, yet love it when they are in a relationship.

Your drawing of Dogo is very cute too. Looks just like him, very on model. Your other picture, with Kion, I actually couldn't see on this thread. So I just went to your Deviant Art Page to see it. But it's amazing! I want to draw some TLG artwork too. :p

I have some artwork to contribute today. They are all mushy love stuff, so hope no one minds. :lol: But I haven't drawn anything for Petteri in quite a long time, and I know he loves my art, so... I tried to draw some simple cards for him this year.

This was a sketch I drew in a Valentine's Day card for him:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v242/birdygirl85/Valentines%20Day%202016_zpsh8jbktdy.jpg

This is a small card with our "larko" versions of our characters, that I made for him for his birthday. I know he likes them in that form, and haven't drawn them in many years, so I gave them a go again. I don't think I really chose the best paper to color on with pencils. But oh well. It was just meant to be a small/simple card to be able to add to his present I gave to him for his birthday. (Even though I spent quite a while on it) :p The coloring doesn't look so good in this scanned version, but that always seems to be the case when I scan my real media artwork.

Sorry for the late reply, I'm pretty sure I wrote one already before, but I lost it as my iPad automatically refreshed the page :'D


Leor, love your artwork. Your Kiara and Kovu Valentine's Picture is lovely. It's so nice to get a positive view of Valentine's Day even though you are currently single. The idea of Valentine's Day is sweet, I thought so too even when I was single. I can't help but think it's weird that people hate Valentine's Day when they are single, yet love it when they are in a relationship.
Thanks ^^ and yeah, those were my thoughts exactly, why feel bitter about Valentine's Day when I can be part of it this way instead? I may be single but I like to celebrate love, I'll never stop doing it, even if it's for other people :simbasmile3:
Thanks for the comments on my other artworks too (I fixed the link to the Kion picture ^^'), and yes, you should draw some TLG art xD

Your drawings for Petteri are both so adorable! It's great to see new art from you, and yay! Larko versions! I like larko versions x3

Here's another TLG drawing I finished this friday, also to help deal with the absence of an episode this week. I loved drawing these two, so much :3

[Sharifu]

Thanks for your comments on my drawings. :D And aww! Your drawing of Kion and Jasiri is so cute! Amazing job! I hope we get to see Jasiri again in future episodes. :kionhappy2:

[Azerane]

Haven't lost your touch, Audra, love both the pics :)

Leor, some truly awesome stuff coming from you, keep it up!

[Kasei]

Oh my. Lion Guard doodles have been falling out of my pen during warm ups lately.

[Leorgathar]

I saw those drawings of Mtoto on Tumblr, but I had no idea they were yours :D
They're so adorable ^^ and is that adult Kion? That's a funny face xD

I drew Mtoto too :cs_grin: well, a grown up version of him, more like, with the right tusks and all

[Kasei]

D'aw, thanks! Yes, that's adult Kion...sometimes I am quite silly when doing my warm up doodles. x3 I love your rendition of Mtoto all grown up! He looks great...also the Beshte in the sky is a nice touch. xD

[Leorgathar]

Thanks a lot, Kasei! ^^

After watching the Paintings and Predictions episode from TLG, I immediately thought about drawing some fanart of Nala's father with the little information we got about him.
Soo here he is, falling from a tree in all his glory :p

http://orig14.deviantart.net/6b9c/f/2016/095/e/3/nalasfatherda_by_leorgathar-d9xsltf.png

This is just my interpretation of how he might have looked like. I basically just drew Kion, but using the same colors as in Nala's dad's painting, and I also gave him Nala's eye color, because why not? :uhno:

[Azerane]

Haha, that's too awesome :D Looks great Leor.

[Rachel-Lioness]

Here is my latest TLK fanart! I do hope it's not to large. :p

[Guntur]

Nice, Looking good for those art Rachel. :D

[A Balanced Breakfast]

I don't know why I got the idea to ship Kion and Vitani... but I did.

[Vidan]

Bunga seems annoyed. Bit of jealousy, perhaps?

[A Balanced Breakfast]

Bunga seems annoyed. Bit of jealousy, perhaps?

Nah, he's a bit annoyed that Kion is gawking over Vitani in the middle of a mission.

[Leorgathar]

I love Bunga's face :lol: Great drawing, ABB!

Here's my entry for that TLKoB contest I mentioned. It had to be done with a traditional medium, so I chose soft pastel chalks and pencils. There are a few mistakes here and there I wish I had corrected, but I was running out of time to submit it. Hopefully they'll like it ><

http://orig13.deviantart.net/919a/f/2016/169/0/5/loquetocalaluz1_by_leorgathar-da6pqwx.png

Also, for those who don't know, I have a new Tumblr blog for my art, it's Leorgathar-art.tumblr.com (http://leorgathar-art.tumblr.com/) :)

[A Balanced Breakfast]

Awesome work, leor! I think you have a good shot at winning this thing.

[HasiraKali]

That's awesome!

[Guntur]

That is just awesome, keep 'em coming. :cheese:

[KanuTGL]

That's so cool, Leor :) I love Mufasa's mask especially; you've drawn it spot in! Best of luck in the contest :D

[KanuTGL]

Sorry for the double post... :p

I actually made something TLK-related! Woo :D

http://orig08.deviantart.net/6793/f/2016/201/8/b/mighty_hunter_by_kanutgl-daao4x8.jpg

It was for a collab on TLKFAA, and I'm really excited because it's just got a major makeover! If you haven't seen it yet, check it out! http://fanart.lionking.org/ :D

[Azerane]

Wow, really awesome pic Kanu! Also, I didn't realise the archive had a makeover. Never a better reason to do some more fan art and upload I suppose. I get what they've tried to do, although it's a little strange the main layout when you go to an artists page and it seems strange to have to click on gallery after that point. But I get removing the comments as a separate pop-up etc and in having to click on the gallery it's more like deviantart I suppose.

[Leorgathar]

Nice work with that pic of Kovu, he looks really on model :)

Hmm this place has been pretty quiet lately, so I'll just leave this here :p

[Kirauni]

Haha, I fav'd it already on DA. That's awesome, Leor! :D

[Guntur]

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's all I can react. That is epic.

[ThiagoPE]

Hahaha, amazing Leor! I really liked it :)

:lol:

That was funny to read, well done.

[Leorgathar]

Thanks a lot guys, I'm glad you laughed with it :simbabiggrin:

Ok, so... this happened last Sunday. The actor who plays Ed in the Mexican TLKoB production hijacked Mufasa's actor's twitter account. He pranked him by tweeting:
"Diarrhea!!!!! #roars hemorrhoids too! #suffers"

I found it extremely hillarious for some reason xD so I just had to draw this and send it to them both :p

http://orig00.deviantart.net/1465/f/2016/298/7/c/image_by_leorgathar-dam9row.jpg

They loved it :lol:

[KanuTGL]

That's fantastic :lol: You've drawn them both really on-model too! Nice one :D

It's really cool that they responded to it too! Gotta love social media for that precise reason, haha :P

[ThiagoPE]

Great Idea Emílio. I think they really enjoyed your unexpected drawing.

[Sharifu]

Something I drew today.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v242/birdygirl85/sketch_zpsdp4aups8.jpg

Not sure yet if I'll color it or not, we'll see. :p

[Leorgathar]

Awww that's really lovely, Sharifu! I missed seeing your drawings. I think you should color it, yep ;)


It's really cool that they responded to it too! Gotta love social media for that precise reason, haha :P
Haha yeah, that's the fun thing about Twitter, you sometimes get replies from the famous, and it's pretty cool indeed xD

I recently made this one to celebrate that I've been in the TLK fandom for 10 years now :D (That is, since November 6th, 2006), and all this time I've never drawn adult Simba until now, so here he is :cs_grin:

http://orig05.deviantart.net/b76c/f/2016/313/c/b/cb563044c71aafba0b300ebd399f5e21-dant7mj.png

[Kossu]

That's a really pretty sketch Sharifu! It would be great to see it coloured someday. It's nice to see art from you again, your style is really sweet. :)

And Leor, as I already said on DA, Simba is really well drawn. You've improved a lot!

[Azerane]

Sharifu, that picture is really lovely :) I also think you should colour it!

Leor, your art seems to have improved in leaps and bounds! Mine has probably gone in reverse since it's been so long since I drew anything. :p

[Leorgathar]

Thanks a lot, you two :) there's something about his front paws that keep bothering me, though, maybe it's the pawpads, or the length of paws... I'm not sure :'D

Here's two new TLG sketches I made recently:

Here's my first TLK fan art piece. It's a lousy drawing of cub Simba.

https://img00.deviantart.net/fd30/i/2018/120/6/7/simba_lineart_by_littlefoot505-dca8vqe.jpg

[KanuTGL]

Hey, it's not bad for a first try! :D Just keep practising, I'm rooting for you :lalala:

[Kossu]

I second what Kanu said, Littlefoot. Not bad for first try, keep it up!:smile3:

[Aphelion]

So, I guess this post belongs here.

I was bored at work yesterday with nothing to do while I waited for samples to be sent through to me, so I doodled a disgruntled Ono (to reflect my mood at the time)
https://i.imgur.com/S8ZbLJm.jpg
I'm hardly an artist (especially compared to some of the other artists on the site) but I thought I'd show you my picture anyway

[cleargreenwater]

I know that feeling at work, your drawing of Ono captures it perfectly! :lol:

[This Land]

Lets dust off this thread aye, I started getting back into drawing so I thought I'd post what I've been up to past and present as I haven't posted any art here for ....years xP


https://i.ibb.co/L9hM4X3/Take-Me-Away.png
Based on the roleplay "New World"
Sheek, an undercover "spy" who gains the trust of wandering Lions/Felines and hands them over to his war obsessed Father to either brainwash and pledge allegiance or be killed. Well the group he had formed together over the course of the story he had became quite attached to and just couldn't bare to betray them. So at the last moment he turned against his father to give the group that crucial small moment of time to escape. He paid with his life.
Everyone gone, but just the moon and the stars.

Timelapse of this art :)

"Even though the grass is green again and the Pridelands have been restored....something's still missing, and can only remembered"
After the ceremony with big smiles, Simba takes a walk in deep thought looking out to all he owns, with some big paws to fill.
This is a retake on 3 of my old sketches, (go...go and find them on my DeviantArt https://www.deviantart.com/this-land , cookie for the first correct answers =P ) all put together into one drawing which I feel went together well.
Behind a happy smile could be a sad story to how it got there.

https://i.ibb.co/RpDX389/IMG-0008.png
A birthday present for Nathalie ^^ .
Our characters soaking up the sun on the beach (Plus sheek being the romantic of course xD ). We love our trips to the beach, so thought it more personal
I have been working on this picture for a good few weeks when I had spare time. I wanted it to be as best as I could possibly make it with what I know. I have learnt alot doing this one and gained more confidence. Plus A lot of erasing and trying again occurred haha!
Overall I’m happy how it came out and Nathalie’s reaction when she seen it was priceless <3.

https://i.ibb.co/zFsbtNm/Sheek-The-Shoe-Repairer.png
Sheek The Shoe Repairer
So for people who dont know. I work at a company called "Timpsons" who do all sorts of things like Shoe Repairs, Watch Repairs, Engraving, Key cutting, Mobile phone repairs, Dry Cleaning aaaand pretty much anything else I feel I can do that the customer requests haha !
So yes, I've wanted to do a crossover of sorts of my Character and my Job for years.....so i finally did.

[Kossu]

Nice drawings, TL!:)

My favourite is the one where your characters are at the beach. It's so romantic! I also really like their expressions and the way you drew the waves.=D

[This Land]

Aww thanks Kossu ! ^^.

Yeah the waves took a few attempts but was happy in the end :D

[This Land]

I attempted an animation ^^

https://i.ibb.co/F8fb4Qx/Sheeky-Breezedev.gif (https://i.ibb.co/44DZRbm/Sheeky-Breezedev.gif)

More detailed description about it, plus links to YouTube videos / speedpaint timelapse, on my devientart ^^

[Sharifu]

I'm a bit late in saying this I guess, but This Land, nice to see art from you! Impressive animation too! Animation is really time consuming. I hope I can finish my animated short about my dog Bella that I was working on in 2019. Hopefully someday, it's really hard to find some free time when taking care of a baby.

I've been wanting to make a character for our daughter, and I finally did it. We decided to name her Zawadi, which means gift in Swahili. Seems fitting, as her real name Mikaela means gift from God. (Also seems fitting as she was born exactly one week before Christmas). I do want to make a family drawing sometime too, hopefully I'll be able to do that before her next birthday. XD

https://fanart.lionking.org/media/Artwork/Artists/Sharifu/Zawadi.png

[KanuTGL]

Aww, she's adorable! :aww: A great mix of Sharifu and Sadiki! It's always lovely to see art from you, Audra ^^ And Zawadi is a great name too!

[Kossu]

Aw, that's a wonderful design Sharifu.:wow: Like Kanu said, it's always lovely to see art from you.:)

[This Land]

Thanks Sharifu ^^ It's great to see artwork from you too ! As mentioned, a perfect blend of both of your characters, so cute !!

[Sharifu]

Lea is so dead now... But I'll go ahead and post this here too just in case any of you would like to see it. I finally did make that family picture. I did finish it before her 2nd birthday though haha, just barely. (Finished it last October) This is a photograph of it framed in her room. Just decided to show it here now as I just uploaded it to TLKFAA.

[nathalie]

That's really nice! She looks very cute ^^

[Kossu]

Aww, this looks so lovely! They all look so sweet and happy together.:aww:

(Also, Sharifu...a very belated Happy Birthday! Hope you had a great day!):cheese:

[This Land]

Aww Such a sweet drawing ^^ The expressions melt the heart <3 Great to see art from you too :simbarelaxed:
