Speedpaint: Lead the Way

This was a commission done for Pigeon-Feathers on DeviantArt!

Sorry for the lack of animations, I haven't really had time to join any MAPs lately. ;n; I've actually started to redo one of my old MAP parts, but I'm still undecided if I want to actually finish it or not. If I do decide to, then that might be the next video you see. c:

Hi yes I'm here to arrest you for being too good. People of your talent are too gifted for the regular crowd. I hope you understand that this amount of quality is not allowed thanks.

The background reminds me from a scene in Brother Bear, anyone else?

Can I just say the attention to detail in the background is on point, especially with the lighting and texture. The rocks really look hard, the water really looks wet, etc. Now for the characters… despite the fact that they're in a slightly more cartoony style than the environment, and even when one of the characters isn't even a real species, they blend in fantastically with the background. This also reminds me of the trip I took with my grandparents when I turned 12, and how I would just run around when we went to a place similar to the setting featured in this painting. Keep being awesome and inspiring.

Every time I see your art, I swear it gets more breathtaking! The attention to detail is always amazing. The backgrounds always look realistic enough while still maintaining your own personal touch and the characters are always beautifully drawn as well. 😁
