MHEETU?

Description



Seeing the scan above I freaked like a kid in a candy store. In front of Sarabi is a cub that's different from the other two male cubs. It's lead me to beleive that he is a possible cub design to a possible answer to the question "Does Mheetu have a set design?"

There are a number of reasons why I beleive this cub could be Mheetu.

:bulletgreen: For starters, this cub is a hair smaller than the other four cubs in the illustration giving the viewer the idea that he's younger than the other cubs.
:bulletgreen: He's the same coloration pattern of Nala behind him.
:bulletgreen: He's got a design that sticks out from Simba and his Taka colored clone.
:star:He's got no whiskers which is unique to his design.
:star:He has two strands of hair atop his head that lay back in a 'Scar' like fashion.
:star: He's got no ear rims like Simba.

Although he doesn't have any eye colors like Nala and the other girl cub. I think his eye color would be a touch darker than that of Nala's, giving that he's a shade darker over all.

Being that I haven't drawn anything Lion King related in a long time, I wanted to doodle up this possible Mheetu design up :la:

Is it possible his whiskers may grow when he’s older? :) I think that cub is defo Mheetu. Given how his concepts looks, the colors are about.. 50/50 ish. Doesn’t concept Mheetu have that little hair tuft as well? Have you also seen the cub in Simba and The Snake? :D
