Sketch- Kion

Description

KION
Kion is the newly announced son of Simba which you can read about here www.deviantart.com/users/outgo…

I don't have my hopes that it will follow after the events of the second movie, but instead will be a spinoff of the first movie. Kopa fans can rejoice in this aspect I suppose since Simba will have an animated son, although they're still leaving Kopa in the shadows and to always be the cub that will never be. It would be nice if Kion was born after SP so we could see Vitani and the others but again, I doubt this will happen. 

This was just a quick sketch to figure out who he looked like. I love the spots in his paws but I'm not down with the goofy paw print on the shoulder, so I modified it to just be a conglomerate of spots (more natural) and he fits more with my version of Nala's Paternal Grandfather who also has spots on his body. I know it's there to draw in the 4 year olds the show will be targeting but... Eh. The weird stripes in his little fluff is also odd and like many said, looks like MLP a bit. Once I get home, I'll probably do a digital version of him. 

I expect to see a flood of new semi-canon characters when this series launches. I'm excited! When I first saw him I instantly thought that he looked like a cross between Zira and Simba, so I may use him for two separate AU's, one where he's Zira's son, and one where he's Nala's.
