Part two of the Unfinished collages.

There's a bit more canon in this one (mostly Zira) and a few sketches of "Five Fingers" characters, and a couple of really good recent drawings.

I was going through and resorting my 1.2 gigabytes of TLK fanart, and I took a look in my "Unfinished" folder.

Ick. But some of the aptly sorted unfinished art seemed fairly decent, so, inspired by Timali's unfinished art collages, I cobbled together two large images depicting pictures I never got around to completing or uploading from the past seven years.

This one is mostly Vidole, with a few birds and some original characters, as well as some canon squiggles filling in the gaps between the pictures.

More Sketcher sketches (incidentally, nobody guessed le bird). Bug, egret, rock, tree, cheetah, Xandra and Jack.

I've had a horrible Internet connection for the last month or so, and after clearing it up by uninstalling a program that wasn't as beneficial as I thought it was (let's just say that McAfee AntiVirus isn't all it's cracked up to be), I was surprised to find that my connection was still failing occasionally.

After several tests, I determined that if I stay on Sketcher too long, my Internet connection dies. I have no idea why; I just know that Sketcher is somehow jinxing my connection. Ah well...

This latest translated comic with yet another lion cub with a fun, yet slightly odd design inspired me to draw this picture of Vidole and Kigeni examining a variety of cubs with similar design oddities, mostly from comics.

Kigeni's unvoiced dialogue: "Did it suddenly get ironic in here, or is it just me?"

EDIT: Fixed hyperlink. Something seems wrong with this site's HTML. Half of the tags suddenly don't work anymore.

A bunch o' sketches I did on New Year's Eve on Sketcher. A dragonfly, a BCNH*, an impartial cheetah's face, and a couple sketches of my little Wuzzles-inspired mutant, Cheegret (someone erased part of the bottom sketch of him after I lost my Internet connection, inspiring me to draw the second sketch in the upper right corner).

An end-of-year special, as well as a sign that I have overstayed my welcome here: A record of every request, art trade, or non-spontaneous picture drawn at the request of TLKFAA members for the past 6 years (plus, pictures of Tanabi and Vidole to show how how my art has evolved, plus a grab bag of characters).

The non-uploaded stuff was either not to my liking, off-topic, or just plain forgotten. I wonder if I should create a Photobucket account for my old, never-before-seen stuff…

I was reading the comments on one of Kereska's pictures of Esteban, and somebody said that his design looked like it was inspired by an oryx. I, in turn, was inspired to draw a lioness with gemsbok markings, and since I was on a roll, I drew a lion with greater kudu markings as well.

I'm sorry if somebody has already drawn something like this. I had no intention of copying.

Vidole and Scar finally meet...after drawing the two of them together, they actually don't look that much like each other (aside from the obvious gender difference)...

Ah, who am I trying to kid.

I also couldn't decide whether to put this picture in my TLK or my V+K folder, so I guess it will have to stay here, in the Main Folder.

Here's my three little heroes, Zig, Zag and Brownies, all grown up (in a perfect world where none of them get eaten before they reach adulthood).

For those of you who didn't read the caption on their first picture, each one is a different species, Zig is a Grant's zebra, Zag is a Damaraland/Chapman's zebra, and Brownies is a Burchell's zebra.

Back in the 80's, Hasbro (creators of "My Little Pony") came out with a small menagerie of animals dubbed Pony Friends, among which was a lion named Kingsley.

Hasbro said Kingsley was a girl, even though s/he had a mane. S/he also had a tail that looked much more like a horse's than a lion's.

In light of this, I'd say Kingsley has a good reason to be distraught.

When I first started playing Space Quest a few years ago, in my youthful folly I was compelled to draw the series' protagonist, Roger Wilco, as an anthro lion not once, but multiple times.

Since my skills as an artist have improved since then, I've decided to draw "lionized" Roger one last time, accompanied by a collage of my drawings of him.

I just discovered that Burchell's zebras have been extinct since 1991. The mag I heard about them from was 2 years older, and when it was published, Burchell's zebras still existed...I was sad when I realized that poor Brownies and his kind are long gone.
