"The Land Before Time" Tar Pit Color Key Concept (1988) - ID: may22324

A background color key concept painting from the Don Bluth Studios production of "The Land Before Time" (1988). Featuring Littlefoot, Spike, and Petrie struggling through the tar pit, 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"x7.25" overall, the concept is in fine condition.
