Kion Horse

Lion King Horses: Kion

The Lion King has to be one of my favorite movie franchises of all time. I don't care if it's aimed at kids; I love it! Okay, yes, Kion is from Lion Guard, not Lion King, but same difference. It's the same universe.

I wanted to experiment with a species...crossover?...and see what the Lion King characters look like as horses! I've seen TLK deer and wolves around, but I haven't come across horses, although there probably are some somewhere. So here is Kion (Simba and Nala’s son) as a horse! He’s a colt here, but not a very, very young colt.

I guess since he's a horse, then he'd have the ...Neigh of the Elders.  ...  You know, somehow it's not as dramatic.

Realistic My Little Pony

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
Medium: digital painting

I just started watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and it's actually pretty cute! I'll admit I don't understand a lot of the fanbase, but the show is adorable. It's aimed at tiny little girls, so don't expect something grand and epic. Someone I know (ahem ahem) watched five minutes of one episode (where Applejack and Rarity weren't getting along), and is now convinced that it's one of "those shows" where the kids fight and hate each other. And someone else I know said that MLP cannot be art. Oh well. Haters gonna hate!

One thing I don't really like about it is how stylized the characters are. They don't look like ponies anymore. ...So I fixed them. Lol! So here you are: the main six from Friendship is Magic all with realistic anatomy!

 Faust's style has grown on me since I made this. Sometimes it bothers me that the ponies don't look like ponies, but at the same time, it wouldn't be My Little Pony if they looked like normal horses.

Firefly Dragon

Members of the Fairy Dragon family, Firefly Dragons are about the size of robins or squirrels. They are a peaceful species, living off flower nectar, fruit, and occasionally supplement their diet with insects. They have no defense other than to fly away or spit a candle-sized flame, so they are very shy. They are nocturnal. Firefly Dragons communicate by soft chirps and squeaks and over longer distances by flashing their bio-luminescent tendrils in different patterns.

Because they have no way to defend themselves other than to hide or fly away, Firefly Dragons tend to make easy prey. Thus they breed prolifically, laying about a dozen eggs in a single clutch usually twice every spring. Both parents care for the tiny babies once they hatch. Firefly Dragons are unable to create light until they are fully grown. Bio-luminescence is the last stage of their growth and signals maturity.

Firefly Dragons have been domesticated and are kept as pets because of their small size, docile nature, and ease of breeding. They are intelligent and can grow accustomed to humans and learn not to fear them. Domesticated Firefly Dragons have been bred to have brighter colors and more extravagant wing structures than their wild relatives. The dragon pictured here is a wild-type Firefly Dragon.

The Hobbit Meets The Lion King

The Lion King meets The Hobbit! I dug up this drawing that I started a little before the "Desolation of Smaug" came out. The shading was awful, so I decided to chuck all the shading and start over with just the lines. The linework is from a few years ago so it's not up to par with my more recent art, but I still wanted to finish it! From left to right: Tauriel, Thranduil, and Legolas. Yeah, I know Tauriel's not an actual Tolkien character and that Legolas wasn't in the book, but I still wanted to draw them. I draw what I want. ;D
