Description I know the title is such a cliche, but I found that it was the best title that fit the picture and also it does't give EVERYTHING away.

This is for a contest on [link] by ~ Fanta-chan .

The topic was that we had to draw a twist in original The Lion King plot. I've been asking this question my whole life (since I watched TLK for the first time), why didn't Simba just ignore Scar's mind-games and run home? Every kid need his parents' emotional support. So I came up with this.
I must admit, I've developed a few techniques in drawing and colouring while our internet was "broken". Anywho, I hopes you like it! Oh yeah : Tablets RULE!

Something along the lines of,
"Mom! Dad fell off a cliff and got trampled by wildbeests! I'm so sorry! It's all my fault!"
"Hush, child...tell me what happened."
"Uncle Scar took me into the gorge - he said there would be a surprise for dad and I. But then the wildbeests came, and dad, he tried to save me."
"Scar said what now?"

Nevermind what would have happened if Simba had run home. What would have happened if during the whole "I have to teach my son a lesson scene" Simba told Mufassa "But Uncle Scar said...."

Simba: Mom...I-I'm sorry....I....

Sarabi: HUSH now child, it is alright. We'll be alright....

IDK, it's just something I'd think Sarabi would say in her own way to comfort her cub.

Simba thought he was responsible, also feeling guilty for his father's death. Simba was afraid of what his mother and pride would think he's just a young cub. Scar truely is the best disney villian i must say.

Such a beautiful yet sorrowful and amazing picture
I felt sorry for Sarabi too

This simply amazing and very true, if he hadn't followed Scar's words, what WOULD have happened?? Every childs question when watching this movie *nods* You captured it very nicely, the details are amazing!

Aww, had this happened instead, I'm sure Scar wouldnt have found it so easy to become king (I think ^_^. I like the coloring

Smirtouille [2012-02-27 09:52:09 +0000 UTC]

He couldn't because he felt responsible.

I like your drawings... The clean lines, the sharp and clear colors. Facial expressions, there is a smile of yours on your characters that is not from TLK and an anatomy twist of your own. It's neat. I like your sense of colors.

such a beautiful picture, i love sarabi's tail, the lines, the stars, shading and the colors, everything would you consider making a tutorial?

Aww gawd, I haven't seen this drawing in ages!
I saw this in 2005 when I couldn't draw to save my life and this made me think that If I will have a tablet I could draw just as perfect. How wrong I was. Like EVERYONE ELSE who thinks Tables is the magic solution! Anyways sorry for bothering you with moi nostalgia, just wanted to show my appreciation! ^^ You're awesome!

Cusackanne [2010-06-25 03:38:22 +0000 UTC]

This would of been a cute scene if it existed. I have to question this too, that why didn't Simba just run back home instead? Oh well, whatever makes the plot work I suppose...

Son-Neko [2010-01-29 17:53:39 +0000 UTC]

Even if he did run home he never would have made it back alive. Scar would have either killed him himself or the Hyenas would have got him.

Simba: I was sitting in the goarge waiting for uncle scar to come back with dad because scar told me dad had a suprise for me.
Sarabi: a suprise?...
Simba: i was practicing roaring like Uncle Scar told me toand i started the stampede that killed dad. Uncle Scar told me it was my fault and told me to run away.
Sarabi:what?!
