Thanks everyone!
I have some very small points of feedback for this piece:
- I like that you added a shadow underneath Sharptooth, and this might look even better if you add his features to the shadow (e.g. tail and leg location), instead of having a round circle.
- The flowers seem to have been carefully planted there by a gardener (then again, that might be what Sharptooth is doing
). For a bit more natural look, try to place them in "random" locations + perhaps several close together.
- I think Sharptooth's "snout" might be a bit too long? But that might also be the angle, not sure ^^
-Yeah, it can be really hard to try and project a shadow underneath. I've practiced it a couple times and it usually just looks bad

Something I'll need to practice a bit more on for sure.
-Yeah we can pretend that Sharptooth has a whole garden that he's been working on this whole time

At first I wanted to create a whole bunch of them to make it more of a flower field, but found out right away that it would be way too time consuming. In the end I just decided to draw a few of them instead.
-That could very well be true. I honestly never looked to close at a reference for this one and just kinda sketched him out haha. I did look at some references for colours afterwards but at that point I wasn't really worried about the lineart.
Thanks for the feedback!
Lol, good one xD
I don't see anything wrong with the drawing, funny idea and well done ![:lol dino :lol](https://www.gangoffive.net/Smileys/gof/dino_laugh.gif)
(I'm so scared someone is beating me to my idea lol, glad you didn't do mine xD)
My ideas are usually out there so I don't think you have to worry about me taking your ideas

Thanks!
This certainly managed to take me by surprise when I saw it first thing this morning. ![:p dino :p](https://www.gangoffive.net/Smileys/gof/dino_tongue.gif)
Well, this is rather interesting and even slightly jocular mental image. To think that the big bad sharptooth simply wanted to enjoy the glory of flowers. In another universe where the events in the film were vastly different, I could see this as the prospective contrast in the predator's life. Alas, none of that was granted to the misunderstood creature, and this drawing starts to put things into perspective. In a few words, let me say that this is a rather great oeuvre from you, Flathead. In fact, I had very hard time finding anything wrong with it, so congratulations for exceeding my presumptions.
I suppose I like to make people look at things differently, much like my Brootie drawing

Glad you liked it!
It's such a stark contrast from what we expect and know about Sharptooth that I can't help but be entranced by the setting this piece depicts. The pose he's in (gingerly holding a foot up as if he's afraid of treading on the flowers) tells almost as much as the jolly smile on his face as he holds a bouquet in his hands. Maybe Sharptooth is celebrating Valentines' Day.
The idea was to have him in more of a skipping pose, like he's jumping for joy while being surrounded by flowers haha. I guess the drawing did come close to Valentine's Day, never even though about that

I wonder who the lucky sharptooth is to be on the receiving end of those flowers?
