Designing Vitani - Part 2 (Adult)

Just a satire piece about the character design of "Vitani" in "The Lion King II: Simba's Pride." Most of the references are obscure and will probably only make sense to TLK fan-art artists like myself who are frustrated with Vitani.

It's basically a long extended rant in video form, intended for The Lion King Fan Art Archive. As for the Hokey Pokey, I have no excuse. ;) Fred, Bob, and Mike are all fictional btw and bear no resemblance to any of the real SP animators (at least as far as I know).

Split into two parts to upload. This second half is about the design of adult Vitani. The first bit is about the cub.

For the lighting, I say the best chance is Nuka's death. The lighting is minimal, and all three of the other outlanders. It's also consistent throughout the scene.

A very pale orange.

@RWBn00b I agree that it's the best chance, but it isn't a direct sunlight scene, either. If you look at Simba in that scene, he's dark pinkish beige, and in the following scene where he's in direct sunlight again, he's deep gold and Kiara has default sunlit colors.  So assuming sun = rising throughout that scene, take Vitani at its very end and then saturate/lighten her colors even more. If you do that with Kovu he becomes very close to his default sunlit coloring (from the "play" scene).

vitanis not ugly did you know that she actually beacomes queen after kovou

[Koraden]

@TheAlvinandbrittney - That must be a fan fiction story you read. There is no official canon for Vitani or Kovu after the events of Simba's Pride.

[theoctavarius]

Eh, I still think she's cuter than Kiara. And she isn't as... err... mentally deficient.

[forlornblade]

yeah i wanna see a Kovu one too xD that would be funny =3

[Oakheartlovah]

I know why she looks so much like nala. NALA IS HER MOTHER! no, srly, im not joking. Nala and Scar are her parents.

[BortzOfficial]

Seriously, who cares that much about a minor character from a cheapquel?

[blackwolvesthe2nd]

@mayettaxtriger436 It's a joke haha! Funneh...

[ThePancakeWarriors]

[lucymia]

Yah... the cub was utterly cute, but the adult was fucking ugly. Hilarious making of satire though!

[mayettaxtriger436]

KIds ARE NOT stupid. Some people are rude.

[SylvanaSays]

we can't have her look so close to Zira.

KIDS ARE STUPID, They'll get confused. lol.

[AmberheartDaMeddyCat]

@Koraden Eh, I know it's been 9 months, but what about the 'making fire' scene, outside? Her colors there are very similar to her cub colors, soooo... that's what I use xD

[Elriaen]

My goodness, what DID they do to her?!
