Happy New Year! :D


Yup, Yatima+Mtoto is official. :P


Delu and Tumaini are such good parents... and grandparents.

Nia and Lia as young adults

A sneak peek into the distant future.


I'm sorry to say that this pic is my last Patreon post of 2021. I'm going to have to pause my Patreon for the rest of the year. I need to focus on other things.

I'll start uploading again in January. I hope to "see" you then! :P

Kopa, honey. If you like somebody, you maybe shouldn't be unnecessarily rude to them.

Ah, Naanda, you ever so positive little ray of sunshine...


Kopa is a big boy now! :') Well, not really. But bigger than before.

Deni's life is just tragedy after tragedy. Parents died. Brother died. Sister fell in "love" with a crazy lion. Own mate turned out to be crazy. Daughter died. This Jasira friend died. Sister's crazy mate died. Sister became crazy. Eventually sister (and nephew) will die too. Will she ever be happy...

Yup, she's officially insane.


Like I said in the beginning, nobody is safe.

Ooops. Yatima knows that Deni knows something...

Poor Sanyu

Such a beautiful sketch, isn't it? XD So detailed!

Deni is full of secrets. Who is/was Jasira? :o

Beautiful Face

Ayana's face!!! XDDD I didn't mean to make it look like that, but I'm totally keeping it. So beautiful, so graceful!

A little sneak-peek. What do you think they're talking about?

Subtle and smooth, Deni. Not forced at all.

I wonder what her idea is...

This was not a fun page to work on. I was about midway through the lineart process, when I received the news of the death of my family's dog.

Time jump! Mtoto and Yatima's friendship has reached the point where they're comfortable talking about their secret thoughts and their families' dirty pasts.

Yes, Yatima is adopted. Her biological mother isn't Delu. She thinks her biological father is Tumaini, but is he? If he's not, why does she look so much like him? And if he is, who did he have an affair with?

Oh! And Choka is pregnant. Everyone who has seen my TLK family tree already knows that she's going to give birth to Kasi, the fastest member of Vitani's Lion Guard.

FINALLY! The first panel took me so many hours I can't even count. I'm never ever going to draw a scene with so many characters in it again.

Please don't ask who the characters are. XD Most of them are totally unimportant. And the slightly less unimportant ones you probably know already.

Jabari is the bravest out of the siblings. Or at least he thinks so.

It continues!

The locations of the Elephant Graveyard and the Outlands have always confused me. The Graveyard seems to be behind the southern border (even though Scar says northern, but the sun tends to rise from the east, so... I guess Scar was really bad at school and he never learned the compass points). And the Outlands of the second movie seem to be located close to the Graveyard. Buuut the Outlands of the Lion Guard series are on the other side of the savannah, behind the northern border. And that place seems to be connected to the place where Zira's pride lives in the second movie. Whaaaaat...

So, I guess the Outlands are a pretty long area.

Safasa

He's going to appear in CI later. This character used to be the father of Mufasa and Scar in my ooold theory. Now he's a distant relative.

Oh, Tau, you're too brave for your own good. And pretty rude.

Nuka is conflicted and doesn't know how to feel.

We're getting closer to this story's end! Slowly but surely.

Well, your father wasn't exactly a hero, Nuka...

Deni is imagining things... or is she?

Correcting Injustice, page 5

Yeaah. By now it's probably clear to everyone that even though Zarifa is the main character and narrator of this story, she's not a hero. She's both a victim and a villain.

This story is kind of an experiment. I've been wanting to write a story from a villain's point of view for so long. I mean, there's 'Decades of Denial', but we can't "read Taka's mind" in that comic. In this comic, we can see what Zarifa thinks. And I don't know, it's very fun to write. Scary. XD

This page is so random and weird. Poor Zazu. XD I'm not sure if he can actually hear what Zira is saying, but he definitely can see the "flirtatious" look she's shooting him...

What's happening? Why is Deni staring at the young lioness and ignoring Zira? :o
