Decades of Denial, page 1, new version

Yes, I'm remaking the first 5 pages of DoD. Well, actually, I'm not sure how many pages this new version will have, because now there won't be that "Oh, you want to leave, Kion?" conversation.

The only thing I changed on this page was the last panel. But the next page will be completely different from the original. Though I haven't really decided how, yet.

Nooo, Tau. Go baaack.

Kiara and Kion sketch

I'm going to redo the first five pages of my third comic, "Decades of Denial". But it's going to take a while because I haven't decided what to do with lava Scar, Kion's scar, magic roar and some other things. And I'm more interested in HtPR at the moment...

Coloring a picture of Kion and Rani

A video of me coloring a picture. I'm going to make this available to all my patrons, because this isn't really comic related and because I felt a little bad for working on this pic instead of a comic page. But I just HAD to draw this!

Fiiinally! Panels #1 and #5 were so hard.

School started today. Thank heavens for webinar lectures!  I was coloring this page and listening to the teacher at the same time. XD

And yup, I named Janja's dad Banagi.  Banagi was the leader of the hyenas in an early draft of "The Lion King", until someone realized that "hey, hyena clans are led by females". I thought it was fitting to make Banagi Janja's father. The weird-eyed hyena is Banagi's brother Baasho, also a characte...

Yatima and Zira sketch

You know the feeling when you have a to-do list but you get an idea and you HAVE to draw it before getting back to your list, because the idea refuses to go away? This "scene" isn't going to take place until page 100 or 101, but I just could't get those faces out of my mind...

What are they so shocked about? I'll leave you guessing...

Finally! This page took me forever and was so hard to draw/color/everything, and I don't even know why. DX It was almost like I had suddenly forgotten how to draw.

Uh-oh, Deni is in trouble! Chumvi and Mtoto to the rescue! How will Deni think of Chumvi after this? How will Mtoto think of himself after this? :o

Yeaaah, I filed a DMCA complaint against someone on YouTube, but YouTube decided I'm the bad guy here and removed my account. This is why I'm not their fan. I'll figure something out soon.

I was going to finish sketching a page of TFK today, but somehow I ended up finishing this page instead...

There's so much happening on this page. XD The 3rd panel is probably my favorite. Poor Kopa!

Yeaaah, I ended up coloring this page too. Yay, page 50! :D

My version of Janja's dad is a hyena that appears in the "hula scene" in the first Lion King movie. I think he's probably the only hyena from the movies who has colored "irises".

Yeaah, I said I wasn't going to post this page on Patreon because it was going to be colored by a volunteer colorist. But life surprised the colorist and they couldn't do it, so I colored the page myself. So here it is!

Oh, Asante, what has happened to you? :(

Look, it's Tau! It's been forever since I've last drawn him. I almost forgot how to draw him. 

And Scruffy Babe has a real name now. Finally. :D

Just a sketch of "Scruffy Babe". This will be a panel of the next page of TFK.

Aleela doesn't trust these new hyenas at all. Anana's name is funny because it's almost "ananas" = pineapple.  She kind of looks like a pineapple to me. Though I picked the name Anana because it means "gentle"/"soft". :P

Next page coming soon...

Yeaaah, I couldn't post any sketches during my trip, sorry. I just didn't have the time and I caught a cold. But now I'm working on the next page of TFK again, and unless my cold gets worse I should get it finished by tomorrow. :D
