Just over a year ago, my counsin used to love LBT, so I gave her the DVDs I had, since I wasn't interested in it at the time. Now, it's the other way around. She's obsessed with Nintendo games (which I used to be obsessed with) and I'm obsessed with LBT.

I haven't really watched it with my family, but they know about it and like it. My 22 year old brother watches the films from time to time, and my mum jokingly called me a weirdo for liking it at my age, but said it was a really good film, so they like it, but I just don't watch it with them.  

Thanks everyone! I'll try get something else up by next week. As I said, I'll upload it as it comes. It's a bit of a busy time for me right now though; my friend's taking me to London this weekend and then I've got a load of exams to do over the next few weeks which will decide which classes we're in next year. Then by March I need to sort out my options for courses and such, which is pretty important since it's going to decide what I'm going to do career-wise, but I'll probably find time for drawing nonetheless, although I may not be as productive as I'd like (Not like I'm productive anyway XD).

Thanks, Mumbling! Considering I didn't know how to use GIMP properly this time last year, I'd say my art has come a long way. I wasn't really making too much progress art-wise for the majority of the year, and I think the reason for this was because I wasn't very motivated, but I think after I re-discovered it around October/November LBT truly inspired me.

I just took this in small steps. I used screenshots that I like and drew from them to get the feel of it, and it just progressed from there. I'm glad you like it!

YES MOAR... may come soon. Although I would like to draw some sharpteeth/fast biters first.
Whoohoo! I have gone from being extremely gory with humans to calm and sweet with dinosaurs. My personality has changed a lot over the past 6 months. That and really love doing more naturalistic backgrounds than say city type backgrounds. LBT also re-inspired me to draw something, since before I had re-discovered it, I was running out of things to do with my human OCs and I was just plain demotivated.

Glad you like them. I hope I can get more done soon!

Well, after what, two weeks, was it? I've finally decided to post some of my fanart here. It's only longnecks at the moment I'm afraid. I have tried drawing the other species of the gang of five, though it didn't come out too great. Petrie was okay, considering I drew him from memory, Ducky I kinda like, but that was with a reference, Spike was "Meh", and Cera... failed.

So, enjoy my drawings, which mostly consists of Littlefoot's grandparents, because they are my favourite characters at the end of the day. Here goes nothing.

So first one:



This is...bleh. It was my first time ever drawing a LBT character, or a dinosaur for that matter, back in November. Well, since I was about 6, anyway. I used a screenshot to help me out with this one, but no tracing was done. Considering it's a first, I can't say it's the worst thing in the world; I was much worse when I first started with humans, and I never really got any good with that.  

Moving on...



Aw, how cute~ Haha, a few people commented on this saying how sweet it was, but I also see a few errors here too. First of all, with the grandparent selves, I really don't get why I made their noses dip downwards when they got closer to the eye, aren't they suppose to be... straighter?  
Oh well, I like how the kiddies came out more. This was intended to be my Christmas/seasonal picture, so I put the transparent grandparents up there looking like the ghosts of Christmas future or something like that. I've always enjoyed "A Christmas Carol".
Also, on young Grandma's hind leg there, eesh. Bit thin, I think. XD

I had drawn Littlefoot and Grandma Longneck together before, but that never made it past the lineart, so I did have a bit of experience drawing younger longnecks. That lineart was also made using a screenshot for reference, but Grandma's head looked really squashed.

Third one:


Pff, this wasn't long after a friend of mine asked what my take on Grandma and Grandpa Longneck's past was. So, the family when Grandma and Grandpa were middle-aged, I suppose. Consisting and Grandma and Grandpa themselves, Grandma's mother, the Old One, Littlefoot's mother and another little one. I didn't really bother with shading and such, since it was just some concept art, but I uploaded it nonetheless.

Final one for now:


My latest and probably my favourite so far. I did a fair bit of experimenting with the background and such, although I didn't really bother with shading it. I just downloaded a load of brushes for GIMP and layered with a load of shades of green. So, they were playing, got tired, and then... oops. Oh noes, their parents found them! :! So, green longneck is Grandma's mother, while the old dude (Old dude? What? ) over there is grandpa's, er, grandpa. Curse of the long snouts, much, mother? And Grandma's snout is a bit long too, for that matter. Mind you, they were longer when I inked them on paper. A lot longer. Thank goodness for digital editing.

I don't know why, I just really like drawing Littlefoot's grandparents as kids, and my friend suggested that I do a fancomic for my take on their past, but I'm still thinking about that one.

I'll upload more fanart as it happens. Feel free to critique, I like get to feedback!

Kara said Littlefoot thinks hes so cute and his grandma and grandpa are old and ugly and have wrinkles

... *Facepalms*
I think these people are just trying to downright insult the franchise now...

Considering this is Littlefoot's grandparents we're talking about, it's quite obvious that the animators are going to give them wrinkles to show that yes, they are getting on a bit. I also quite like how in the sequels (well, up to 6 anyway), their colours seemed to have dulled with age, but I think these two are actually pretty cute, especially when they're together. So, old and wrinkled? Yes. Ugly? Nah.

If I'm honest with you, I usually don't express what I like that much in front of people I know will probably make fun of me. I honestly wouldn't pay any attention to them if I were you, and as I said before, you're you. Everyone thinks differently, some people think LBT is babyish while others think it's great. People should just stick to their thing rather than bullying others about it and making them feel embarrassed.

By the way, Molly. I just got around to looking around your DeviantArt. I think there's just a few drawings up there right now, right? "Longneck family" is pretty good, and I see you got your avatar from that very drawing. I think 'One Night in a Cold Time..." is my favorite, though. It just looks like a beautiful scene. So romantic, actually. 

Yeah, since I only really got back into LBT around late October, then didn't really think about fanart until late November, and I don't really get the time to draw often, mostly with school, family and other hobbies getting in the way. I'll try my best to keep it coming, though.

Ah yes, my personal favourite is "One night in a cold time" too. Since I'm such a big fan of Littlefoot's grandparents, I like to wonder about what their past was like. The only thing we know about Grandpa is that he was s story speaker in his day and was told stories by his own grandfather (maybe he was a story speaker too? ), and we pretty much know nothing about Grandma, so... gives me an excuse to make random stuff up!
Funny, I just looked back to that one picture, and now I've drawn another piece with Littlefoot's grandparents as kids. I've shown the sketch to a couple of my friends and they think it's pretty cute. So, more romance, I guess... maybe.  

Hiya Strut, and thank you!
I'll be sure to have a look at your DA!

Okay, will do!

Hey I just check your fan art and it's really good! I love the ''One night in a cold time''. I hope you can do more fan art soon.

Thanks! "One night in a cold time" is probably my favourite fanart of mine too. And I'll be sure to do more fanart ASAP.
