Of all the things, I've been shoving my face into The Lion King lately. But I was having so much fun, I ended up working on an OC, and with the help of  dynamo and a base by  ale-tie they became reality! Here we have Kitoto, the shy, anxious lion. He's a bit of a cub at heart, always wanting to run off on a new adventure and not above getting his paws dirty in the process, but he's also likely to jump at shadows. Still, he's a good friend to have. Just don't try to put him in the spotlight.

Thanks again to  ale-tie for the base I used, which you can see here.
And thanks to  dynamo for sketching, inking, and coloring this finalised piece!
