I had no other reason for doing this other than just design practice and curiosity.

Zazu and Rafiki, as majordomo and mjuzi, have markings to signify their positions and relations to the royal family. I imagine they had some choice when coming up with the designs. Tried to go more more maltese tiger grey/Russian blue for them. Doing both their manes was a lot of fun, though I decided to give them both darker noses with red paint, since giving them red/bright noses just was too jarring.

Timon and Pumbaa are both rogues who live together at the Oasis when Simba comes into their lives, and they become big brother/uncles to him. I decided also to make their fingers/hooves into their claws, since I didn't want to do a darker glove for them. Not entirely sure if Pumbaa's 'beard' looks good or not, though I tried to get away with most of the darker red belly/chin parts of his original design by making him a very furry Barbary lion, which I suppose makes Timon a Tsavo here. I'm also getting Latin lover vibes from Timon's mane/expression.

Pumbaa is probably my favorite of this bunch, though I love everyone's hair, Timon's pose, and Rafiki's face.
