“The Land Before Time” Dinosaur Legs Color Key Concept (1988) - ID: may22317

A background color key concept painting from the Don Bluth Studios production of "The Land Before Time" (1988). Featuring a dinosaur running across the desolate environment with a focus on his frantic legs, the hand-painted concept was created at the studio and used during the early production of the film. The concept was used to develop and finalize the color palette for the scene, the layout of the action, and the overall feel of the scene. When a color concept is finalized during production, it becomes the reference tool that animators would use to paint cels and backgrounds, as well as to further progress through the storyboarding and layout of the individual scenes. Measuring 3.75"x7" overall, the concept is in fine condition with one pinhole on the top of the background.
