The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Ducky and Petrie FanArt By Me!

I drew Petrie and Ducky curled up in a little nest sleeping. They seem to be pretty close friends and such. I thought it would be cute. ^^
This is my first attempt at drawing LBT characters. Please be reasonable with critiques.

Haha that's not bad! B)  Very nice, especially for a first attempt; great job!  The digitized style makes the colours a bit harsh but I know how difficult that is to work around using computer-based art.

By the way, welcome to the Gang of Five!  Have a great time here. :yes

Pretty good drawing there, except Ducky's crest shouldn't be that exaggerated.

Ah!  I've been wondering if such a fanart would appear.  Mind you that when it comes to LBT, I am a fan of Ducky&Petrie. :)

This is rather good if anything.  Of course, it is a little harsh on the eyes, but other than that, it is good.

And welcome to The Gang of Five! :^.^:

Harsh on the eyes pokeplayer?
There isn't anything in the picture that hasn't been in the movies too since the original movie when they all huddled into the sharptooth footprint.
Ratiasu has a good point about Ducky's crest, but the picture is really nicely done. This is really very good, especially if one considers it is your first attempt at drawing Ducky and Petrie  :yes

PS: Does the almost full blooded German include the language? Sprichst Du flie?end Deutsch? Ist Deine Familie erst vor kurzem nach Amerika ausgewandert?

Oops!  There was a little color problem with my computer when I looked at it.  Let me fix this. :P:

There we go!  Now it looks much better. :^.^:

Thank you everyone for your lovely and helpful comments! ^^ I'll take them so that I may produce something even better later!

Pokeplayer, yes I do speak a little German. My immediate family is not from Germany. It was many years ago, but we've managed to keep the bloodline somewhat pure. Mind you I am also Irish and Native American. ha ha.
