This a great tutorial for these reasons: #1, It is easy enough to draw that even I can do. (I am bad and this turned me into a better artist.)
#2 While not being exact to the movie, This is very accurate and simple but still left me satisfied with the end result. And #3 Love The good Dinosaur as much as I do? I drew this made some copies and one of them is going to be a great present for my friend. She will probably be surprised I ever learned to draw and draw WELL. This was a great website and I will look to it when I want to draw Arlo and hopefully spot in the near future. 🙂 I would rate 5/5
Thank you so much, Connor! That was the nicest review ever!
