Comment on Robin Hood by sycamoreleaf

Beautiful earthy colors, vivid ones too, as if I'm looking at an animation cel placed on a pretty olive green background. Oh, and Robin Hood was one of my many childhood heroes, gotta stick that in there! ;) Nice to see Little John being added to the picture when he hardly gets shown in fan art. Wonderful job, I :heart: this lots! :aww:

Odd thing coming from me, no? The bright colors? :stupidme:
But then, whenever I think of Robin Hood all I can see is Sherwood Forest all green and sunny. Donno why - it's like a constant ... something in my mind. But then, Robin was mostly a trickster, so anything other then joyful colors doesn't seem... him.

... did I mention this is the first time drawing these two? :XD:

Heck ya! Green is the color I would definitely think of as well! It's constant in my mind too thanks to the film! :D No, there's not bright or joyful colors, I did say earthy colors, and vivid meaning your style reminds me of a painted cel. The difference is you added dimensions with shadow effects, different from a cel. Still uber LOVERLY!!! :aww:

... did I mention this is the first time drawing these two? :XD:

GIT OUTTA HERE! :jawdrop: Okay, Disney...what's their corporate phone number? ;p Well, many didn't believe me that my first time drawing Basil was "Suspicious Detective" in 2006, so there ya go! :O_o: :laughing:

I need their number... some day ;P For years I've been dreaming to work with Disney (yes, dreams are dreams XD )but what is to come will just come.

But now come, you're making me blush :blushes:

... and I still associate green with Robin Hood (in whatever shape and form he will be) from now until eternity!
