WIP II_Three Generations

Part 2 to my sketch

; got line art and color done! Well, most of the color. Have some touch ups and mild details to do, particularly with some of the cubs.

I'll copy-pasta my description from the sketch:

we got Simba and Nala, of course, the oldest generation in the sketch.

Then the next gen which is Kovu, Kiara, Vitani, and technically Kion.

And then the third gen on the image and youngest, my versions of Kovu and Kiara's cubs; from left to right from our point of view- Tambo, Amadi Nuru.

So while I did end up almost begrudgingly enjoying The Lion Guard, and I'm glad to see Kion introduced as canon to the Mufasa universe, I have never been happy with how close in age Kiara and Kion were in TLG. for it to make sense on a reproductive level, Kiara would have to be a young adult for Nala to go back into season and have another cub. Of cours eI know this is a fictional world, but how cute would it have been to have a young adult Kiara and Kovu around to mentor lil' cub Kion? So much more potential! But I guess they wanted to include Zira in TLG so whatever. Anyway, if I ever get to Kiara's Reign, Kion will be depicted as he is in this sketch; born after the Outlanders joined the Pride Lands after Zira's war as a some what later-in-life oops kid; who of course is very loved.

This would also put Tiifu and Zuri at the same age as Kion rather than Kiara, and I am undecided whether Vitani's guard will be who remains of the outsider lionesses, whether there will be a lion guard or not, or whether or not the characters in vitani's guard in tlk will many any appearance at all- if they did they'd probably be in Kion, Tiifu, and Zuri's age bracket.
