To those that know what it means, you know this would happen sooner or later, right? ;)

Now, for those that don't know, Anthro means "human mix breed".  I think you have at least a vague idea now.

Anyways, I was looking on DeviantART and did a search engine on the LBT charcters.

Here's what I found:

Seriously, I was not expecting to run into this.

Still, it was bound to happen eventually. -_-

What do you guys think of it?

Umm................. hmm........................ :huh:

I have no idea what to say about this picture. I mean, sure it's kind of a neat idea, but still..............

Something about it just seems so I don't know, strange?

And a picture like that would bring up some very contraversial conversations, some that I don't wish to bring up in public on the board :blink:

Anyway, I can't really comment on this.

Not my cup of tea really.
I'm too much opposed to the projection of human ways of thinking (e.g. war and all that) onto the LBT dinosaurs for me to be particularly fond of the projection of physical human shapes on them.

When I saw this picture, I thought Littlefoot looks like furless squirel here. Especially with that facial expression. Anyway, he does look weird in that form, but of course I may be biased about that, as to this moment I've been only seeing him in his original form. ;)

Sure, the artwork looks nice, but the LBT fan in me is offended. :(

Not really interested in anthros, but the picture doesn't really offend me. To me, there's nothing offensive about drawing LBT characters as anthros.

As a fan of anthropomorphic art; I can say that this wasn't that great. The proportions are a bit unusual and Littlefoot's head was poorly drawn (especially the mouth).

As an anthro artist, I like anthro art more than human art. ^^

BUT, I don't like cartoon characters (mostly animals) drawn in anthro form. I just doesn't feel right... except for pokemorphs. XP

Hello:
 Well, he looks kinda cute, but I must agree that there is something odd about the drawing, maybe it is because turning the character into something completely different, there is the risk to completely loose what the character was meant to look and to feel like.

I myself have seen this pic a couple times and personally, I don't really like it. Yeah, it's weirdly drawn and to me, doesn't look much like Littlefoot save for the face. I also don't like how it makes Littlefoot look...naked I guess you could say. I know that's a weird statement.

Seriously though, someone slap some clothes on that dino!  :blink:

Now I don't have anything against anthro art. Obviously I prefer drawing humans but the Land Before Time characters should never be made into anthros. Land Before Time is one series of talking animal movies that have not been made into a furry phenomonon and in my opinion, it should stay that way. No offense to furries.
