LBT Fanart / Drawings by RainbowFaceProtege :)
« on: March 27, 2020, 02:35:17 PM »
No time like the present to kick off my drawing thread! I'm just gonna warn you now that I don't really have any consistent art style...like, at all.  :facepalm
With that out of the way, here's my top two LBT characters drawn with ArtRage!

Ahhh, I finally managed to draw something worth posting!! This is my shot at redesigning my rainbow face OCs. It took me two days of boood, sweat and tears, but I think it was worth it. Since the actual picture is too big to post on here and I need to sleep, I’ll just link it for now and try re-uploading an appropriately sized version in the morning because I’m tired.  :p

Ooh, I like!  :Mo  Not enough people draw Rainbow Faces! I love how you draw eyes, you really put some light in them! Nice to see someone else's Fast Biter OC, too. I look forward to seeing the "happy Nimble" picture.  :smile

@RainbowFaceProtege For starters you could make a aurplus of Mos, Guidos, Chompers, and etc to sell omn etsy when you are ready. :D

@Anagnos Yes.. plushie! Plushie! Plushie! Lol :lol

The pressure mounts...get away! *anxiety!!!* :opetrie

*deep breaths* Whew.

Okay, I'm not gonna say anything is impossible, but I sure can't make any promises, so let's correct that "when" to an "if." I mean, I picture myself making things to sell, and I can't help imagining scenarios like:
A) I end up losing more money than I make because I'm far from experienced in business ventures. (What's a reasonable price for custom plushies? Beats me.)
B) I can't manage to create anything that's flawless enough for me to put up for sale without my conscience nagging at me (you con artist, you're really gonna charge that for that??!).
C) A project rips during shipping because my hand-sewing is hardly invincible...

Soooo, yeah. Just not sure I'm there yet.  :sducky

@ImpracticalDino Yep--definitely an improvement since Tricia!

Is The Great Day of the Flyers your favorite sequel or something? Both Tricia and Guido hail from that movie. :SmugSpike

Second favorite, actually. Free tree stars to anyone who can guess my first! :rainbowwave  :lol
Thanks for all the feedback @OwlsCantRead --I appreciate your analysis!

@Mumbling Thanks, I was really pleased to find some fleece in the perfect colors for this project! That doesn't always happen, and I like being able to avoid felt when I can. (Sometimes I choose fabric type over fabric color for that reason, so I'll warn you guys that some projects I show are gonna have not-quite-accurate color choices.)

@Gentle Sharptooth Thank you! I probably should consider Etsy at some point in my life...

@Anagnos Aw, glad to hear it! Like I said before, Tricia was kind of a purposefully quick project for me. One of those times I just felt like sewing but didn't want it to eat up all my free time.

Can't go wrong with Guido. :)littlefoot Indeed, the quality of the plush is already vastly different to the Tricia one, in a good way. You made me want one right now.

Let us work together to convince RainbowFaceProtege to make em and sell em on etsy. ::D

You guys are seriously flattering me right now  :smile :smile :smile

General Land Before Time / Re: Getting to know you - LBT Style
« on: March 27, 2020, 11:45:57 AM »
Time to get down to business!!  :Mo

1.)  Most liked Land Before Time character - Obviously, the Rainbow Faces are my all-time favorites! :rainbowwave I always thought they were cool for being so mysterious and intelligent--not to mention they're aliens. I mean, alien dinosaurs? I've always enjoyed the sheer strangeness of them! They're such quirky outsiders, and they don't give a hoot about what the regular dinosaurs think of them. They know things no one else does, and they don't owe any explanation to the likes of Mr. Threehorn! Choosing a favorite Rainbow Face, I'm gonna have to pick the male for being the friendlier one. I get a kick out of how terrible he is at being secretive--seems like he's in the wrong line of work, whatever that line of work exactly is. And caring for the kids is more important to him than keeping his distance for the sake of the mysterious mission, not wanting Littlefoot and co. to go without food and that sort of thing. And then there's the way his passion for science/space always bubbles over to the point where his companion has to cut him off before he says too much...love it.


2.)  Least liked Land Before Time character - FYI, I'm not counting the TV show here, because so many of its new characters were so bland that I don't want to have to decide who was the most boring. :lol Keep in mind I don't downright hate anyone from LBT, but I'm gonna have to say Ichy is my least favorite. He and Dil were always my least favorite villians of the whole series. (Yeah, probably gonna have to let you down in the fanart department on this month's character showcase.) Even when I was little, I found their voices annoying, and that combined with their constant bickering got on my nerves fast. But why does Ichy get the honor of being my ultimate least favorite? That would mostly be because he's always bashing Dil's blindness. Not that Dil's ever nice to him, but with blindness already being an obstacle for Dil as it is, Ichy's attitude strikes me as particularly unfair. Also, I think Ichy's squawky voice is the most annoying of the two. (Squawky: new word, anyone? Spellcheck is not pleased.)


3.)  Most liked Land Before Time song - "Beyond the Mysterious Beyond" will always be my favorite! Come on, it's sung by my favorite characters. Besides, it's such a beautiful song! Plus it's sung by my favorite characters! In all seriousness, though, I love the message that there's so much of our world left to discover, wonders we know nothing about, perhaps some that will always remain a mystery. It's humbling, and it's so true. Looking up at a clear night sky, how many of us think about how enormous it really is? Not to mention that, on the other side of the coin, that part that we can see is only a fraction of our universe. (Somewhere in that paragraph, I just went full Neil deGrasse Tyson mode.)

4.) Least liked Land Before Time song - "Stupid Stompers." x(cera Because, no puns about it, it's just stupid. Mean-spirited, annoying, and as poorly-performed as LBT songs come. "THEY DON'T KNOW AaANYyTHING AT aAaALL!" Was Skitter supposed to be so horrifically off-key??


5.)  Most liked Land Before Time film - Definitely VII: The Stone of Cold Fire! I probably don't have to explain at this point. Though I will add that, aside from the Rainbow Faces, I also enjoyed it for the fact that it had some villains with a more interesting goal than just "eat the kids." (Suddenly most Land Before Time sequels sound morbid.) Plus, Pterano's song is another big favorite of mine! I love its use of string instruments!


6.)  Least liked Land Before Time film - XI: Invasion of the Tinysauruses takes that spot. I mean, the whole thing revolves around Littlefoot becoming a lying idiot. How is this supposed to be the same character we saw in any of the other movies??! I can laugh at The Wisdom of Friends for its what-am-I-watching levels of absurdity, but Tinysauruses is just Out-of-Character Syndrome at its worst! :anger


7.)  Most memorable Land Before Time moment - The end of VII when Littlefoot meets up with the Rainbow Faces again and sees them leaving. It's so cool how you never see the spaceship itself, just the tractor beam and the streak of light as it flies away. For that matter, we don't even know for sure if it is a spaceship. I know others on the web have theorized that it could have been a time machine, though as a fan of aliens I admit no one can shake me into thinking it's anything besides a spaceship. Point is, they left the scene ambiguous enough for there to still be some mystery there. And the awe on Littlefoot's face as he watches the whole thing happen...perfect.

Alrighty, here's some Guido for you! Gotta love this guy--he's my second favorite LBT character (well, technically my third since there's a pair of characters taking up my top spot)! This is actually my second version of Guido, since he was one of those characters I first attempted early on in my sewing ventures, when I still had a lot to learn and relied way too much on glue (blech). I'd show the first version for comparison, buuuut...it's underneath this new one. I basically just reupholstered him when I decided my original wasn't good enough!  :lol

He's about the size of a Build-a-Bear (12 inches when sitting down) and made out of fleece.

Ah that looks great! How long does it roughly take to make one of these plushes?

Only a day or two for something small like Tricia. It can be about a week for a more typical project, though.

More plushies! More plushies! :D
I plan to put another up today, just gotta take more pics! :chompysmile

Thanks @Anagnos and @Mumbling ! :)littlefoot

Yay, I can see her now! She looks really cute! I've always wanted to get into sewing, but it's quite daunting so I've never really done more than add pockets to pants that didn't have any (whyyy women pants, why?!) Taking on a plush project seems like quite some work. Well done!

As someone who specializes in plushies and for some reason hasn't gotten around to learning the sewing machine, adding pockets to pants seems pretty daunting to me.  :lol

Argh, I don't know what happened there.  :thinking Okay, since I know literally nothing about using image hosting, I'm gonna switch to attachments and see how that goes.

EDIT: Okey-dokey! Fixed.

« on: March 25, 2020, 09:52:16 PM »
@jassy Thanks! I definitely have to be in the right mood for sewing, as there are times when I'm not feeling patient enough for it, either. Tricia was a relatively unambitious project for me, so she didn't too long to make, but some of my other plushies have taken a week or so for me to finish.

Yikes, these pictures are scary-big.  :olittlefoot Sorry about that, everyone. Embedding images from Google Photos is a first for me.

@Gentle Sharptooth Thank you! I think making her took me a day or two.
@ImpracticalDino  :PCera Yeah...I'm gonna try to fix those images right now. Anyway, I somehow jumped right into working without patterns from the beginning. Sometimes it takes a lot of trial and error before I come up with something I think is acceptable!

@OwlsCantRead I was annoyed that I couldn't find fabric in the right shade for her.  :p
Ahh, THANK YOU SO MUCH for help with the images! Gonna go resize them ASAP!

« on: March 25, 2020, 09:07:24 PM »
This is the thread where I'll post my babies!  :^^spike I've made quite a few LBT plushies, so I'm gonna take this one post at a time! Also, since this has already come up in my introductory post, I should probably mention that I'm not selling any plushies right now, these are just my personal projects.

First off is Tricia! She's made of felt and is about six inches long, give or take.

Poor Mo:

HAHA!  :PCera
Yeah, I'm planning on a Mo redo one of these days. Other projects just keep getting in the way.

@rhombus Thank you, I'll be sure to speak up if I have questions. Looking forward to getting into the prompts!
@StardustSoldier Thanks for the welcome, I'll do what I can to liven up those fanart/fanfic sections!  ;)Cera


Fandom never really dies, it may reside in embers, but with a blow of the wind it can be stoked again. Sorry, got poetic suddenly. :p

Ah, words to live by...  :Mo  I do think another movie is always possible, but I recently realized it's been almost five years since Journey of the Brave (already) which doesn't seem promising. Still, fingers crossed!

I better get an Etsy account. :D

What I love about Disney’s Dinosaur is it introduced me to my favorite dinosaur and carnivour, Carnotaurus.
Heh, might be jumping the gun a bit there...with the coronavirus wreaking havoc, I don't know when the next time I'll even be brave enough to make a run to the fabric store is!  :sducky
Ooh, Carnotaurus is an awesome dino, I'll agree with you there. I love the carnivores that didn't look like T rex or raptor wannabes.  :lol


I’m glad you decided to take the plunge and join our little humble community, because quite frankly I’m very happy that you did. I love your personality!

Aw, that's sure kind of you!!  :)petrie
Yeah, the DVD...call it crazy dedication?  :PAli

@ImpracticalDino and @Gentle Sharptooth  you guys are gonna be disappointed when you actually see this Mo...as my first sewing attempt, it looks like I just cut up some Mo-colored felt and stuffed it in a blender.  :olittlefoot  I'm showing my much more recent projects first!
@Flathead770 Great to meet you! Many thanks to you and @Mumbling for my new favorite emote!  :rainbowwave
And I'm definitely planning on participating in the prompts! (That sure was alliterative.)

Never apologize for passion @RainbowFaceProtege. We need more zeal than ever as we wait for LBTXV. :)
:chompysmile Aww, you can count on it! Though I must say I'm starting to lose faith in XV happening, but regardless of whether or not it does, fandom never dies!!  :)littlefoot

@Gentle Sharptooth if I ever open an Etsy, you'll be the first to know!
Gotta love Jurassic Park! For some reason I never really got into Disney's Dinosaur, though (can't put a finger on why).
Ooh--if we get a LBT XV I'm gonna be thrilled!   :^^spike

@jassy Thanks, I have the feeling I will!  :rainbowwave
Edit: Nice signature, it's great to see another Rainbow Face fan!
