Description
NO you may NOT use this image for basing,copying,tracing,altering,RPing, personal character pictures, commercial use, re-uploading, blah blah BLAH ETC.....Scanned a pencil sketch and gave it the royal treatment in paint tool sai and photoshop....

edit:
Incase anyone declares "omg art theft! this is a screenshot!!"
"So putting your watermarks on a scene from the film is artz now???"
.... I want you to go and find the exact screenshot that this was taken from if you so seriously think so. And then I'll show you the original sketch, redefined sketch, and compare it to the finished product.
I swear no one can just "draw" anymore.

Wow, you really are amazing if people are seriously accusing you of screenshotting! It's unfortunate your hard work is so good that idiots harass you over it though.Β
The colors are really gorgeous. I love the sky and shades.

Do you have any speedpaints or recordings of you drawing from start to finish? I don't have photoshop (yet) and I want to learn how to use Paint Tool SAI more.

I am sorry but I do not. But there are loads of artists out there who make such videos. All you ought to do is search up speed drawings in whatever program you have/want on youtube.
Good luck on learning ans such!

Ah, I see. It's just that your artwork looks so close to the actual film, that I want to know how to replicate that effect.

Well, I say to everyone. Study the film and try to replicate it to the best of your ability.
Here's a journal that I had written that may help you out there;
art tips?Β Β Β Β Β Β Β I get asked a lot to make tutorials, to teach people this or that when it comes to art, or a certain thing I like to draw.
I'm not a teacher, or an expert guys. I am just some random chick who likes to draw a lot and who practices drawing a lot. I don't think I would be very good at teaching or explaining. I cannot give out information like a teacher would. On paws or anatomy. I am no expert. However, I do give advice though, and my advice is usually the same.
If you want to draw a certain animal, research the animal. Watch documentaries, look up anatomy sketches, and photographs that inspire you. Even inspiring art, something that puts you in the mindset and gives you understanding of the animal. Research the animal inside and out to get the full understanding of it's anatomy, movements, attitude, weight, expressions, body language, markings, proportions, everything. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Learn it all. And then sketch and sketch an
And another concerning TLK
Getting movie Colors for TLK styled characters?WELL!!!
I have 2 notes and a comment or two asking how I get movie colors. So, instead of repeating myself, I figured I'd just make a journal about it. To share with everyone all at once! This can be a long one.... so bare with me.
THIS IS ALL THE RESULT OF MY PERSONAL PRACTICE AND OBSERVATIONS OF THE LION KING STYLE AND FILM. These methods and observations Β may vary from your own observations, just do some trial and error. and good luck to it!
This could also possibly work for any other animal character you want to create. Color tone wise. not just for TLK
Some of the tips here can be obtained by certain digital art programs. I am personally familiar with Paint Tool Sai and Photoshop Elements 4. Anything else? You might have to look up a tutorial online. Remember, Google and or YouTube can be an artist's best friend these days! So many references, tutorials, and tips!
Guys, let me try to explain this, it is not that difficult to try and get your movie colors on your o
Β There's a lot of tutorials out there you can search up. A lot of people do drawings just as I do, if not better. I hope they help. And good luck to it!

and what size Pixel brush do you normally use to make lion king art?
π: 0 β©: 1
I have said it many times that I use Paint Tool Sai for drawing/outliningΒ
And this was aΒ long time ago I do not remember the brush size for this one. It varies between pictures. Just use whatever you think looks best.

It's so good, it looks like it came from the film itself.

Do you think that the people calling this a screenshot are actually complimenting you? Because this is the closest I've seen someone get to the original Lion King style.

I like how you said you gave it a royal treatment

Really nice job <3

You know, I won't bug you about it, but I heard you decided to stop drawing TLK. Just wanted to say it's quite a shame! Whatever any haters say, your art is truly amazing! I wish I could have a fourth of your artistic skills!

Thank you. It's not that I've stopped tlk art all together, I still draw it, I just no longer upload it. Atleast for the time being. So it's all just on hold.

Well, I hope everyone can see it someday

I haven't actually found anyone else who can pin down the Lion King style as well as you

Wonderful expression! You can really tell what he's feeling, and that's very difficult to capture! I love the shading and coloring. Very well done!

sketch and outline? color? do finishing touches in photoshop?
π: 0 β©: 1
I never know what anyone means by "finishing touches". 
π: 0 β©: 1
Blurring things, adding textures if I want. Playing with lighting, adding logos, then flattening it all together to make the final image

That makes a lot of sense. Sorry, I'm pretty clueless with giving things that extra "POP", ya know? TTwTT But Thanks Danielle~

This is incredible

Holy crap, it just look like an official screenshot!
How did you do it? You should make a tutorial about it!

People that comment the things you've mentioned in the description are lame fans. I'm not into insane fandom, but even I've seen The Lion King enough times to know if a picture has been taken as a screenshot or originally drawn.
Just take them as compliments, it means your art is awesome

Oh wow! As a die hard fan of the original movie, I can totally vouch for you and say that this is NOT a screencap! What this is is really, REALLY gorgeous! I'm really impressed! You've captured him so...perfectly. I just love this! I do wish the watermark wasn't on his face and, to be honest, I would LOVE to see your pencil sketches just because I like seeing those sorts of things. It's a nice way to see how each artist works. But, yeah, this is just lovely! Insta-fave!
