Yo its Wolf-Chalk again ~ just wanted to share some Lion Guard art I did recently ~ Had some pencils laying around and thought: why nottttttt

It’s not often we see traditional fan art. This is very nicely done! 

alrighty, here’s some Tea, the same sorta message is probably always posted but yknow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

there is no harm in letting people have fun online with weird characters and bases, but to be completely honest, if people just use bases or trace art for their entire lives, it gets them nowhere artistically. period.

would i have improved at the same rate if i had just stuck to using bases or colouring over other people’s art? no. and sometimes you dont progress at all if all you’re used to is using the fill tool to drop colour into some lines. other people work hard to produce their artwork and get it up to a good quality. when people (not even just kids, sometimes full blown adults) whine and groan that “its not fair!!!!!!” after they get called out for tracing over art that people spend years trying to perfect an art style over- THAT is whats unfair.

so am i perfect artist? no. not in the slightest, lol. i still have a lot to learn and so many ways to progress. no amount of “b-but i have xyz that prevents me from-” AH shshhshhhh. shh. i have dyspraxia, which vastly affects my fine motor skills and coordination, and i’m still pursuing an artistic career despite my struggles.

so the next time someone gets called out for tracing art, it’s not “ruining peoples fun”, it’s protecting an artists hard work and steering someone in the right direction if they really want to be an artist.

lol

Kind of why I’m anti-bases. It’s okay if you’re using them to experiment and push your own painting skills and not spending like 5 minutes color picking and filling it in with a fill bucket. And sometimes they make for a good quick adoptable line art if you’re too busy to make your own. They’re only buying the color palette anyways, it’s up to them to take the color palette and mold it into an original character. 

Looking great here! Keep up the awesome work! 

So, awhile ago, someone posed a theory that Kopa could be canon and be king - because Kiara and Kovu went off to form a new pride with many of the former Outlanders who didn’t feel comfortable staying in the Pridelands, and Kion didn’t want to give up his Guard duties, so Simba and Nala had a third child - Kopa.

He mostly takes after Nala in appearance.

Due to being the third child, Simba is much more relaxed and less strict than he was with Kiara, and to a certain extent, Kion.  Because of this, he’s a total daddy’s boy and kind of a spoiled brat, who wins up in trouble more often than not - making “Big Brother Kion” and the Guard rescue him from ridiculous situations.  

He likes to “flirt” (in the usual manner of young boys" with Vitani (who stayed to be with Kion), by putting bugs in her head tuft while she sleeps, or by calling her names.  Vitani takes it all in stride, but refers to him as “Kion’s weird little brother.”

Kopa also eventually befriends Jasiri’s young daughter, Asante.

I like that idea. 

Just thought I’d throw in a quick tlk sketch for y’all, something positive~ I had to use a screenie for her weird facial proportions though >> Yes, fully aware it’s pretty wonky but I’m learning (both proportions and this new art program which is killing me) >>

And it looks marvelous! You did yourself proud! 

Hope this is okay to submit- but I’d love some opinions on my newest adopt batch <3 Trying to branch out into other species, slowly. Surely. Hope I got this right, I’m not…a tumblr person lmao

I like these! I’m sure others will be interested as well! 

My reaction. 8'3

Still ship my ship, though.

And by all means go right on ahead and ship it like UPS! 

I drew Rani ~

It was only a matter of time! And you drew her splendidly! 

So if you remember I was hosting a Kion/Fuli PMV ~ so far three parts have been completed and I wanted to share what these lovely people have done for it ~ I put them together for them bc they were having issues with movie software so that’s why the videos are on my account ~ at this rate I’m excited to see this put together when we have the entire product finished :’D
