Title: Long time LBT fan, first time forum user
Post by: Sapphirre98 on September 19, 2021, 10:48:54 AM: Greetings all! :rainbowwave Been a long time fan of this series ever since I was a child, and now that I'm hyperfixating on it again I've come down to join up with the rest of the fans!

Some folks here who are also present on DeviantART might recognize me from when a couple pieces of my lbt art blew up circa 2015. I'm not much of an artist anymore, but I'm still quite proud of the art I created back then.

Current favorite movies in the series are 7 through 10, though I've got a soft spot for 11 as well.

Hope to have fun here and meet some new friends! :^^spike

I wasn't active on the GoF and not on DA yet in 2015 so I am personally unfamiliar with your LBT art, but would be great to see them! (and even better if you ever decide to have at it again :chompysmile )

Indeed! I figured that if there was any place I could find some comradery on that front it would be on the GOF forums. The LBT diaspora spread over the rest of the internet is pretty negative and mean-spirited about the sequels across the board, and those aren't really the folks I want to be friends with considering the fact that I like most of the movies. Even folks that are fond of the sequels are typically coming from a place of nostalgia, but I like and watch the movies now as an adult, and I'd like to find other people that do the same. Don't get me wrong, I love the original too. It's just not the only part of the series I love :PLoofah

I'm definitely thinking about putting some of that art up on the fanart board! :)petrie The only thing stopping me at the moment is the fact that I have no idea what I did with my master files. Maybe i'm being a bit full of myself to think that some people might recognize it, but they are some of the most successful and far reaching pieces of art i've ever produced so my view of it is a bit skewed. I do remember Ducky123 did a redraw of one of them with my permission, I checked to see if that was up on the fanart board and it is. That was quite a long time ago, sheesh. Time flies!

Anyhow, not sure if I'm ever going to have the energy to draw again, but I am quite tempted to take part in the fanfic community here. I had no idea you guys had such a robust writing community! Or such a robust community in general, this place is very well maintained. :littlefoot:)
