What's up peeps, I have brought you some lil' sketches of my favorite bean!

I will say that there are a few things wrong with some of them, but i'm just proud of myself for using one reference. Behold!

Thank you for the instructions, but unfortunately I can't get it to work for some reason.

These are great! I actually enjoy drawing Ruby myself, even though I haven't done so inn a long time haha.
Also gotta love the "Hand are hard! lol" comment

Keep it up!

Can you clarify, please?

When you click "insert image" button or type

Code: [Select]

[img][/img] with your keyboard, and then place image link between these opening and closing tags, image doesn't show up on your screen anyway?
If so, then try it again in next post - we will look if it is displayed on our screens. Maybe it's just browser visual problem on your side.

Edit:

wait. I quoted your first post, and this is what I see

Thank you! I think I got it.

Back to the topic, I'd say I am better at drawing Ruby than I am at all the other characters to be honest. I'm working on it though!

Yay you got it! Fully agreed on the hands are hard comment by the way haha

I could see this as plutonic, that theu can’t hug, but for some reason I sense a romantic tinge between Ruby and Littlefoot. Am I reading into it too much?

Great sketches! Your illustrations look so like the characters in the series, you even caught their personalities.

The jewelstone queen · **Reply #10 on:** August 18, 2021, 06:44:28 AM

Indeed, I can see them being more than just friends, their personalities match kind of. But I won't go off on this too much since I know people prefer LittlefootXAli (Littlefoot and Ruby are better though in my opinion! )

I haven't drawn lbt characters in a while, it was a little tricky at first. And number 3 is probably the least I can see her doing. She can be silly at times...in her own way. Anyway, thank you all for your wonderful feedback!

Gentle Sharptooth · **Reply #11 on:** August 19, 2021, 08:11:26 PM

Littlefoot and Ali’s greatest hurdle is Ali is part of a migrating herd, wheras Ruby lives in the Great Valley.

I can’t believe it, I am now Team Rubyfoot💜!

Exactly! More time for them to get closer!

Plus Ali is kinda busy with Rhett, I donno what their relationship will turn out.

It was unclear at the end of “The Great Longneck Scheme” if Rhett’s lies effected his chances with Ali. The fact he confessed and saved Chomper, makes me inclined to believe Ali still loved him and sees that his fibs were due to insecurity and wanting to seem tough. Rhett is part of the Migrating herd, so he has more time to develop amore with Ali, while Littlefoot sees her only on special visits.

I think Littlefoot is likely to love someone of another species like Ruby, just like he was Chomper’s surrogate father in LBTII. In fact, Ruby being Chomper’s guardian gives her more in common with Littlefoot, them both having been caretakers of the gentlest sharptooth.

At the end of it all, I hope Ali found her partner rather than being lonely. She is a sweet character after all.

I don't think different species will be a border for Littlefoot, he wouldn't care if Ruby was a fastrunner or not, he would love her just as he did with Chomper.

Oh man, these have to be the cutest Ruby drawings I've ever seen! (Especially that tiny chibi one!!) Funny, I'd never thought of RubyXLittlefoot before...but it makes sense!

Huh... funny you should say that, there are a lot of fanfics out there that ships them. But I see more Ali and Littlefoot pairings more often though.

The jewelstone queen · **Reply #17 on:** August 25, 2021, 04:56:31 PM

These are my two in progress ocs for lbt.

Sure the first one doesn't seem too unique, but keep in mind that they are still being developed. I might change a few things here and there, I'm even considering on changing the species of the first one.

The purple Ruby look alike is called Emily. (ok, let me just tell you how gorgeous of a name that is. ) She isn't too approachable, it takes her a while to feel comfortable around someone. Who knows? What if they decide to stab you in the back the next day?

Let me fill in on her back story. (which I haven't worked on too much, but let me explain what I have so far. ) Emily was close friends with... someone ... I haven't really focused on them yet.

And after a while, they became mates. Her partner wanted children, but Emily told him that she wasn't quite ready to be a mother. Unfortunately, he forced her into mating and a boy named Hitch was born! Haven't designed him though since I think i'll change the species all together.

Here's Emily by the way. (ill stick with this design for now...)

The next one, we gonna call him Cricket. He was found as an egg by Emily, and this is kinda similar to the hatching of Chomper. He learned leafeater and all that. And coincidentally, he is about the same age as Chomper.

Here da boy is

The first sketches are very sweet and heartwarming. And I agree - hands are hard.
It's always interesting to see other people's LBT characters! Emily is beautiful, and I can't blame her for being cautious, considering her traumatic past and all :< Poor lass... I wish her the best.
Cricket looks like a fun fellow and I absolutely love his name.

Can't wait to see more art from you c:
