Thanks fifteen!! ;) Because of you this idea :P

The Rebellion, not because of the look in his eyes. Not because his markings are out of place.
No, because of his mane. The hairs that only appear on the top of his head and stop on his back.

Who doesn't want 'punk-ish' mane, which is Cool and Fabulous at the same time? They don't have a choice, but to take your lion serious with this mane.
And not because you look like a boring old man, but because you look like the newest fashion icon.


I don't really have a name for it, But I really like the mohawk type of mane. Only at the top and a lot of hair :P I would like to see a longer hairline; making it fall to the side. But a little shorter isn't bad too :P. And the big tail hair would be nice with it too! :P

Do you like this kind of mane too? I would love to see something like this in the game.

Quick sketches from me and my lil sister.
(We are no artists :p So sorry if it looks a little off. But it's just for the idea.)

This is the original idea, kinda ;)


This is with the big tail tuft and little cute heel hairs :)

This is with some hairs on his chest. (I really like this one too :P)

And this is with all the things. Bigger tail tuft, hair on the neck.

-I like the idea of the tail tuft is bigger

-Hair on the heels would also be nice.

-I like the idea that on the belly the hairs are going further as the one on his back.
(So he has a little more hair then only on his back)

-And I think it would be funny if he has some more in front of his ears so he doesn't have REALLY nothing :p And like I said, maybe a little longer.

*We can give him a beard right? :P

A quick sketch:
Thanks to Metal :)

Not sure about this, either. It would require a lot of artwork to make the markings fit as the area exposed by the half-mane is one that is covered by all other manes. Because of the way lion manes grow [Neck and cheeks first] it is also not realistic, even for a scarce/undeveloped mane type, there'd have to be cheek tufts like a tiger has to be more realistic.

Would work as a mutation, though.

Yeah I have some little ideas but does anyone know if there is a maneless lineart? :P

It looks amazing on an OC but I'm just not feeling it for in game lions....its to sparkley. Which is fine but the game needs more realism now.

At least with the unrealistic coats you can add markings to make the color seem more natural.

This is just my opinion but it's to OC or cartoony....and basically a maned lioness.

Maybe it'd work better as a really rare mutation or as a custom decor.

Sorry no support from me. But I still wish you luck.

Can you explain sparkly? :P
Because this is just an example on a character someone made for me.
Sure it looks cartoony on the picture, but that will not be the case on a lioden lion.

So I don't know if you are just looking at the picture, or think about it like: 'what if' it's on a lioden character. It will not have the same cartoony style :p

You can always draw up a lion with the mane and play with it ? ;o;

Don't support.
Male lions have full manes, granted with Tsavo it will be very thin but its still a "full mane". When I say this I mean it is spread evenly across the lion and fits in the wild as in-game.(YES. I understand we have some unrealistic features but certain adaptations to markings can make them seem more natural at least to those who are picky about realism, this cannot do that.)

This has only a longer mane on the back of the head and neck down the shoulders leaving the chest bare, something you just do not find on a lion. It is not spread around the lions body and appears unnatural compared to every other mane on-site. To me, it just looks like someone made a lioness with hair. Which is already a mutation, two or three times over I think.

So sorry, but those are my reasoning's. I hope you see my point, as I see your desire for a new mane ~

Maybe instead of having the mane only be along the spine it can be shorter in other areas?

I want to support this but the deaign needs some tweeking. A Full on mohawk is too "sparkledog" for the lioden style I think. X3



EDIT Maybe a combo of the thick and scarce manes?

I declare that this mane is beautiful and that it doesn't matter if it's natural or not

I don't see why we can have pink lions with leopard and vit markings but not a partial mane lol. Plus it's easy to avoid it if you don't want it.

If the game were actually realistic, we would have close to 0 markings and very little variation in coat/mane colors. And that would be no fun. :c

Vitiligo markings are a real thing and lions technically can have leopard spots (rosettes) so comparing this mane to natural markings that actually exist isn't the best comparison imo. I'm waiting for a mockup before deciding though.

Just because we have unrealistic things doesn't mean should use that as the go ahead go crazy with the fantasy things. Next thing you know people will want lions with wings since the game is already unrealistic.

Ke, so a maneless lion is a lioness. :P Good to know :P So the Tsavo looks like a fluffy/fuzzy lioness X3 But only because they are in the wild it's acceptable.

Yeah it's down to the shoulders, but heavy is also going way back at a lions shoulder.
Indeed it's 'unnatural'

And yeah, indeed there need to be some tweeking. I was thinking about hair in front of the ear and such. But i'm busy with drawing X3 (And bad at it :P)

Yeah, but those markings are naturally barely noticeable (like, the spots be a very low opacity on here) and also very rare. Most sought after lions on Lioden look like a lion IRL would if they were seriously mutated to the max.

Also I don't really think removing part of a lion's mane is comparable to putting the body parts of an different animal on a lion? Idk. Plus, there are custom decors of wings anyway. So, that exists... xD

you are right mid.. But we can have decor from a lion that has the skin of another lion over himself o_0 or decors that are totally weird and has all to do with unreal and go crazy because it can.
(Not all, i know)
And it's not that I ask for wings, I ask for a rather rare mane indeed.

I think my vision is a little different. Because I don't see this as REALLY unrealistic. I see it as, yeah it is a game and we can change the rules of nature a bit. And I see the leg banding as unrealistic as this mane ;)

But i'm busy with a mockup ;)

Stepping in a bit .
I really do not see why we cant have this as a mane . People may say "Oh this is to unrealistic " while all in all this is a game with maroon lions and markings along with lilac as well now . We have pink eyes , maroon /lilac lions, we have banding which would never happen on a lion .

Low opacity spotting is possible on a lion but otherwise lions grow out of their natural spotting as they grow older and end cub/adolhood . So therefore stating that this is "to unrealistic " is not really a reliable reason as to not support . Im not trying to force you to support . Im only stating the truth . It'd be different if this was asking for wings or a horn . But its simply asking for a new mane-type .
