Check this out... the colored version is placed side by side with the B&W so that you can make comparisons.
I wanted to ensure that Liono went beyond appearing as a youth in a mans body. He has always been a character that symbolized strength & loyalty. Thus by looking at his face, you can tell that he has matured into a tough warrior over the years - yet his ruggedly handsome looks endured.
In this design, his sword stays permanently large. But when he yields the war cry, the Eye of Thundera appears and glows red at the core of the large blade.
More Thundercat redesigns coming soon. Stay tuned...
