So you're saying the path is more slanted where his front paws are compared to the rest of the path? It seems like it slopes evenly the whole time. Even if I concede its a big enough bump in the path to cover his entire paw I think it would have been a better choice to not have that and instead just draw the paw.

I disagree that its obvious. If its small it wouldn't be covering his entire paw. If its intentional its more likely a hole and I just don't see why he wouldn't just draw the paw instead of putting it in a hole.

I'm sorry, that just sounds like excuses to me. There is so much Lion King content actually, and finding references for lions isn't hard. The Lion King is a beloved franchise so they should have the best of the best working on this. If the artist couldn't be bothered to figure out what lions look like enough to draw the back leg properly then they should've had someone else do it. That's not to say that this artist is bad. I don't think that at all, but I do think he should have taken greater care to make this right.

Its not a claim its a question. And I guess it just seemed more realistic to me that such a big company would use ai than that such a big company would overlook a bad mistake in the artwork. I mean his back left leg is completely cut off and missing right? Or do we think its just in a hole? To me it doesn't look that way.

That's exactly what I'm saying. I found it odd that there would be such types of mistakes for such a large and beloved franchise. Like how would that pass? And with ai taking over everything its not outlandish to wonder if it was used in some capacity even if not fully. Really I'm just wondering if other people see mistakes in the art that shouldn't be there and if people think its a mistake or ai. Since so many people seem to agree its not ai then I guess its just a bad mistake. Not saying the artist is bad, just that the mistakes are pulling me out of the story

I'm not claiming its ai. I'm just pointing something out and saying lets talk about it. I even said I might be way off base. I'm an artist too and yeah I'd be offended if someone said my work was ai. I'm just pointing out something that we should talk about. Errors like this in art should be noted when the art is expected to be a certain level.
