Nala's Eyes in TLK

[Nadra]

I actually mentioned that lions are only supposed to have shades of amber for their eye colors either here, Pride Rock Net, or both. lol, the only way she should have blue eyes is if she had leopard or tiger in her bloodline. of course, the TLK lions don't have lion eyes anways. they don't narrow them to slits, but in circles like humans and cheetahs. and they have eye "whites" which shouldn't be visible in felines as the colored area (I forget the name...iris?) should cover their eyes where we have a white area.

Haha! No, Nala's dad isn't Scar - no, it isn't Mufasa - no, it isn't even the young and hansome lion called Ni! It's a leopard!
Wow, then Kiara isn't a lion at all... She's a leopon!
Yeah, the white area isn't usually visible when the eye is healthy. But in some photographs, the small area around the pupil looks darker than the yellow area (iris). Maybe the yellow area of TLK lions' eyes is really the iris, and that little area (green, blue or brown) that looks like iris is... something else.

lol but typically hybrids between species that different renders the offspring infertile and thus unable to have cubs. so, Kiara would have to have been mothered by another lioness so then that'd be weird. especially since Kiara has Sarafina's nose.

Well Kovu's eyes are a little darker than Scars! ^^ And is it true that Kovu likes Nala?

I know that, they usually can't have cubs. But I've read that both female and male tigons (and sometimes female ligers but it's rare) are able to have cubs with lions or tigers. I don't know about leopons though.
And if Nala's dad was a leopard, she would actually be the leopon and Kiara would be a 3/4 lion...

Kiara: "But what if I don't wanna be Queen? It's no fun."
Simba: "That's like saying you don't want to be a lion. It's in your..."
Kiara: "But Daddy, I am not a lion..."

I've heard many people say that Kiara has Sarafina's nose. What do they mean? The color or what?

Yes, they are. I like Kovu's eye color better than Scar's.
Well, you should ask that from Kovu.

no, the angling and shape. it's not just the "pad" of the nose, but the entire structure. I only noticed it when I was drawing them. I might make a comparison thingy sometime.

Simba: "That's like saying you don't want to be a lion. It's in your..."
Kiara: "But Daddy, I am not a lion..."

zomg, that'd be hilarious. that would so stop Simba right in his tracks with that lecture.

Simba: :confused3: .... ...Well, it's still in your blood.

Hmm, I think you're right! I've been drawing their noses for ages and I've never realized that. Cool! And I think the color is also very close to Sarafina's. Sarafina's nose is lighter than adult Nala's, just like Kiara's.

Haha, I can imagine that... Poor Simba!

[Yumacub]

The lighting in TLK2 was different right? So that must mean Kiara's true colors will never be known???

[CommandoTheLion]

Hmmm yeah or Disney just messed up XP

[KovusTrueMate]

I always thought Nala's eye color was blue.
