Obviously inspired by the TLKoB song.

Background in Painter 7, Nala completely in Flash MX, the shadow on the ground and the cropping/editing for the letterbox effect in Photoshop 6.0. The letterbox effect was an afterthought when I realized that it had a screengrab-esque quality to it, so I figured, what the heck, and edited it to look the part. I rather like the results, myself.

It was suggested at The Icy Forums that Balto's mother might be the white wolf. This popped into my head as a result. I haven't drawn any Balto art in _ages_, and boy does it show

A fleshed out version of the first running lion sequence. This didn't turn out so well, but, again, it still manages to get the basic idea across.

Yet another diagram doodle thingy; someone asked for help on running lions, so this resulted. Not great, but it gets the idea across, I think.

I must agree with Nuka on this one.

And for anyone wondering, that's a klipspringer (it's a kind of antelope). Saw it while flipping through a book on African animals and decided that I had to draw one. This was the result.

I was asked about cat heads vs. wolf heads, so I doodled this up. Fairly self-explanatory, again, because of labelling. Psuedo-realistic on all of 'em, of course.

A fellow artist asked for help with muzzles, so I doodled this up. On the left is a psuedo-realistic lioness (shows off my nonTLK leonine muzzle style); in the middle is a Nala clone; and on the right is a wolf in my style.

The rough body sketch of a cheetah is there because she also wanted a critique on legs.

More little diagram thingers. *nodnod*

Anyway, I've noticed that a common mistake seems to be drawing canids and felids with too-similar (and even virtually identical) body plans. So, I doodled this up to visually illustrate the differences. No comments on it, so you are spared my scientific jargon, you lucky people you. ^.^

That's a gray wolf on the top and a generic leopard-like pantherine on the bottom. Take notes on the differences, as there will be a test on Friday. ~.^

Yup, another one. This time for sitting, so I did a variety of angles. There are little things about this that bug me (there are on the standing/crouching one, too), but it still gets the point across. I particularly like the 3/4 back one.

For educational purposes only, folks. Play nice. ^.^

I guess this is furry, since it's for felids. *shrug* Anyway, a fellow artist asked about drawing legs, especially in crouches and this was the tutorial result. Thought it might help some folks around here, too. ^.^

A second Halloween pic, this one managing to poke a little bit of fun at that whole Simba/Kimba controversy in the process.

See, this is what happens when I'm angry: Ng're'a manifests as my temper (ah, art therapy). What spawned this bout of bad feelings was my brother. I won't go into detail, but it was his own friggin' fault that he had done everything but what he was supposed to be doing all day, not mine. Plus, five minutes waiting for me to finish up was *not* going to kill him. Gah! >.<

Snowy got her paws on some acrylics, a canvas, and an easel. This was the result. As seems to be the norm, whenever I try out a new medium, Ng're'a is my first victim -- erm, I mean subject. Yeah, subject. So, here she is stalking through some snow-shrouded locale or other.

A Halloween pic. And, yes, it's TLK; the Elephant Graveyard has the perfect atmospheric conditions for Halloween, so why not? Scar's costume was actually inspired by what my English teacher wore last year, 'cept he had horns. He really liked that cape, though,...perhaps a little *too* much. And don't worry excessively about poor Ed; it's not like there's much up there to hurt, you know. ;D

M'kay, this might not make much sense to nonTLK fans (or even to fans who don't participate in the fandom much). See, there is this much contested idea that Scar had this really good and sweet side (commonly referred to by his birthname Taka) that his evil side (Scar, since that's what he was called when he killed Mufasa and decimated the Pride Lands) just sort of squelched. This has spawned some nasty arguments (think the Star Trek debates over who the better captain is x.x ), so, as is typical for me, I poked some fun at the issue. And, for the record, I myself don't personally like the idea of good side/bad side. It just sounds so...schizophrenic.
Additional Credits: Taka/Scar belongs to Disney, but they never bothered to give us a cub design, so this is the one I came up with. Yes.
