Meme: Before and After

Sorry for large file!

Had a spare hour and thought I'd redraw this lion as fur practise. The 'old' one is pretty depressing d: Especially since it almost definitely took me longer than the 'new' one XD

I actually prefer just the grayscale sketch of the lion ([link]) because I'm still not sure of the best way to colour sketches >.< but I figured since the first one was coloured, this one should be too. Tips on colouring would be great if you have any (:
