That's really good Owls. 

If you enjoy art then I say go ahead and draw.

I'll give some tips for next time or to learn if you wish to. Dinosaurs have the problem of not having living references to work off of, all we have is bones and such, still I would look up real dinosaur bones or realistic art from other people and try to learn from them. All art is based off real life everyone just changed it up for their own purposes. I would grab some pics you like and draw shapes over their bodies, this is tracing yes but you are not posting it you are only trying to understand how this is built, reverse engineering as you will. You can brake the rules of drawing if you know you are breaking them, ie I'm sure dinosaurs couldn't make such expressions with their faces but most people break that rule cause they want to and it looks good.

I'm still trying to figure out how Carnotaurs work. It's a little hard, but I'll get there like you will. Keep drawing you get better the more you make.

The lineart is the best part of your piece it gives it a hand drawn feel and it looks a bit like a animation cel. The only things that bug me is the tail and face, tail should tapper off more and the face looks off I dunno maybe the head is too small or the expression is off. 

Maybe you should try shading next time? What art program do you use to draw? I use Firealpaca for my work.

A New Mu-u-ud Brother?

Hello there, and welcome to the Gang of Five! Yeah, many people here joined cause of the fanfics. Not surprising really.

I’m probably one of the only people joining not because of that.

But anyway, I hope you enjoy hanging out in our Great Valley with many new friends to make and a bunch of content to discover!

I’m curious. When did you first discover LBT? And do you have a favorite sequel?

@ImpracticalDino

Greetings Dino!

I'm glad to be here. 

I watched it as a kid 'cause I was one of those dinosaur kids, still am as you can plainly see. Not sure when my parents got the movies or if they bought them or they got passed on to them, I have the old vhs tapes of all the sequels.

I remember 5 and 10 being my favorites. I've rewatched 10 recently, skipping some parts here and there, and I still really like it. I haven't watched 5 in years but I remember it fondly and I'm sure I would love it again.

Welcome to the forum, Choco!

I prefer and seek good endings only though. Both in fiction and real world. 

Hello Sneak!   

I love happy endings in the end as well, especially after a stressful time.

This fandom is gold mine for bad endings and I'm not sure why but me the bad ending queen approves. I eventually found out how deep this fandom goes and how many great fics there is here.

For some odd reason this fandom is one weighed more towards angst and melancholy (blame the source material). And cruelly ironic as it is, I'm someone who can write angst, but am averse to reading it, which is awful (for me) because that, drama, and Hurt/Comfort might as well be the default LBT writer's refuge and specialty.

But enough about that, hello and welcome to the Gang of Five. You have joined a decent number of members who joined the forum for the express purpose of joining the writing subgroup, me included. We are always eager to have more writers in our humble abode.

Hi Owls. 

I don't really remember the movies being that dark though, I haven't watched most of them in a while but... The first movie had it's moments especially with how bleak everything seemed. My theory is that most people realized that their was a lot of ways the gang's fate could ended horribly in the movies.

I've been writing angst/tragedy ever since I've started writing so this fandom is perfect for me. Oh, I didn't know you didn't like angst, sorry about that, I loved your scrambled eggs fic though it's one of the best bad endings I've seen recently.

I'm glad to be here with you all, I'll probably peek into the fanart form sometimes as I can draw as well.

Let me be the first to welcome you to the forum.

Hello Enchanted. 

I would also like to say that I like the Kansas lyrics in your signature.

I'm very much obsessed with the Musicbox/Lullaby Version of the song. I mean I love the original too it's just this version made me realize how depressing the lyrics are. It means a lot to me.
