While it's basically the same art style you've been utilizing for the past few drawings, they've been executed with near perfection consistently, time after time. You've nailed the ecstatic expression on his face and the carefree/goofball like nature represented by his posture and the bouquet of flowers in his claws. I honestly like the trend of portraying antagonists as misunderstood/normal beings that have many of the same interests or likes that other "normal" people have. I internally squealed with joy when I first saw this picture, it was so adorable and outright ridiculous. Other than the very uniform cloud and flower pattern that could look more natural, and perhaps more shadow detail under Sharptooth himself (all of this which was pointed out by other people already), I have no complaints.

Don't let the Gang of Seven find out though! Remember, he's the big bad ravenous Sharptooth after all! :bestsharptooth :lol

Haha thanks ImpracitcalDino! Yeah it's fun coming up with unexpected things for characters sometimes. On the topic of uniform cloud formations, the placements were actually intentional. The reason being is to help fill out the rest of the page  with "stuff" so to speak so it feels less empty. One of the reasons why it might not be completely random is that while the clouds can be a nice touch, I didn't want them to be behind Sharptooth and distract from his pose. That was very much a more deliberate choice then the placement of the flowers.

Yes of course, one needs to keep up appearances, especially in the Mysterious Beyond  :PCera

Now that I've started to draw pictures that aren't card related, I figured that I should make a separate topic. The first one is for the Fanart Prompt Challenge: Draw a background character.



It was a really close call between the spinosaurus and the one dinosaur in LBT14 that gets the treestar crown (I love it's confused expression). I really like the design of the spinosaurus in LBT12 over the more traditional sharpteeth in the series so I ultimately went with this choice. Drawing the head took the longest amount of time as it kept looking wrong. Now that I have the drawing on my computer and able to compare it to the original picture, the head is still a little skinny. I tried to work on my shading as well. Overall I am pleased with how it turned out.

Feel free to share any feedback with this drawing or any others in the future.

Amazing sketch of the Spinosaurus in XI! I use to sketch dinosaurs a lot. Haven’t in a long time though. :(

Really digging deep I see :p

Thanks though! Honestly looking back at it, I'm still quite happy with how it turned out, even if it was directly referencing a scene. As for sketching dinosaurs, no time like the present to jump back into it! Heck, I did the same with this LBT fanart after years of not drawing.

I got inspired and I’ve started using a sketch app. Maybe I’ll post some pics in my own fan fic pic.

Tbh, Rhett is just too much of a manipulator, liar, and pompous person for me to ever believe that he would be together with Ali. But I get where your fanart idea came from, considering that it was the TV series that tried to force that relationship scenario upon us in the first place.

Even if this day has been quite the catastrophe, I agree that the picture is at least presentable and this bond as you may wish to call it, certainly is a vivid imagination. :p

I'm starting to think you live just to create irony, Impractical. :lol

Anyway, nice job on today's emotes, Flathead! I can tell you must've had fun making them, all those different expressions.

The irony was not intentional on my part. That post came before this Rhett April Fools joke even started. :lol

Are we keeping all the Rhett emotes after April Fools is over though? I mean, now we're stuck with an overabundance of emotes from one character.

Thanks everyone! I'm glad you're loving all of this Rhett love that he finally deserves   :bestsharptooth

@ImpracticalDino
I'm honestly impressed that you went along with all of this so well as this whole thing was a Discord creation so you were mostly out of the loop (and also most people just like to hate on Rhett)

@RainbowFaceProtege
Yeah it was a blast creating all of those emotes! Yeah I really like that one as well!


OK, one more surprise to end the day. Enjoy!  :rhett_smile

Jesus Murtaugh Christ, you made actual high-quality drawing of this? :O
Masterpiece quality!

Well, as for the scene, there's good side of it - I always knew Littlefoot's destiny is to be with Cera.  :bestsharptooth
As for Ali, well, if she falls for such obvious Rhett's storyies, his lies, she doesn't deserve to be with our goldheart longneck!

Well, at the very least you haven't lost your touch with drawing, Flathead. For that, I'm grateful. Honestly, am I the only one who thinks that Rhett over here looks more like Littlefoot than actual Littlefoot on the left side? Yes... I do believe I would prefer that much better, but since Rhett's coat is more dark brown, this must be untrue. :cry Done in a few hours, that's pretty impressive even for someone that I can always count to draw high quality drawings. Truly, well done. :)
