The Fairest One of All

"Unrivaled, unruffled! I'm beauty unleashed! YEAH!"
_{What am I doing with my life?}

So...yeah...apparently I drew Lionheart from Warriors embarrassing himself...and sparkling...don't ask. (I actually like Lionheart quite a bit, even though he kinda got killed off before we got to know him all that well. Oh well, any character who shares a name with my favorite song is an instant like for me)

Go home, Lionheart, you've had too much catmint.

Note: I don't imagine Lionheart actually looking like this. This is sort of poking fun at how he's sometimes depicted as a miniature lion. This doesn't bother me as much as some people in the fandom (Warriors is not a realistic series, therefore I don't always imagine the characters looking all that realistic themselves), but in some cases, it does look a little silly. Here's a rough colored sketch of my actual design for him: sta.sh/01x5a0vf22p4
I know he still has the mane and....the sideburns....but he's not exactly a pygmy lion like in this picture. I dunno, I always liked drawing him with a mane and not just making him a "slightly fluffier than usual" cat. Like I said: Warriors isn't a realistic series, so I feel like the characters can have all the fluff and fancy markings the artist wants....just nothing outside the series' norm. (battle paint pawprints and highlights, despite not being mentioned in the series, is fine by me, just no green cats with bright pink markings)
