So as part of my "adaption" in progress, here we have some concepts for the three Jungle Emperors we will meet. From left to right: "Panja/Caesar", "Leo/Kimba", and "Lune/Rune". I do want to emphasize that these are very rough concepts, not final designs. This was done more to play with their coloration, as white lions are often not actually white but a color more kin to "blond". I forgot the black ear tips, partly due to the fact I really couldn't find photos on that site that showed any of the white lions with the typical black ear markings lions have.
Eye and nose colors were pulled from screenshots, after comparing different adaptions together. As for the pelt and mane colors, they are a mix of screenshots and the picture included at the bottom of the Jungle Emperor summary page on the website I've linked before.
I am fond of the White Lion Dynasty from Jungle Emperor, which dates back to "Ancient Egypt" per the 1965 series at least, and I believe hints exist in the 1989 version as well. However, there are some very colonial themes running through the various versions. I will be working to either remove those overtones completely, or at least deconstruct them.
