Description The Road to El Dorado fanart! Because it is a very wonderful movie and I've watched it three times this week!

The one on the left with the map scroll is Miguel and the one on the left is Tulio. I don't know if you can tell, but Tulio is holding a coin. *shrug* It's small and difficult to see. I'm really happy with how this came out. It looks like the characters and...it just generally looks nice. The expressions were fun--I draw expressions like Tulio's all the time, but Miguel's was good practice. Facial hair, too. I never have occasion to draw facial hair (substantial facial hair, not the vague, unshaven sort of facial hair) outside of Jack Sparrow. And that's not a lot of facial hair anyway. ^^

And It's Tough to be a God is a great song, but it is impossible to find the version from the movie (the version where Kevin Kline and Kenneth Branagh sing). You can only find the version where it's a duet with Elton John and Randy Newman (and it's not nearly as good--different beat, different lyrics, different singers...just not as good at all). Anyway. Enough of that.

Miguel and Tulio (Tulio and Miguel--mighty and powerful gods!) belong to Dreamworks Pictures

lol I know the lyrics, I was having trouble finding the actual mp3 of the song (though I eventually did--since this was seven years ago). Thanks, though!

It's the product of far too few people seeing that movie. It should be more popular!

lol Indeed so. And that's kind of fun. I never had siblings growing up, so I had no shenanigans of that sort.

aww! emo! I do it with my bff a lot too.
I've done so many things with my sister. It's also begun to be a Merry and Pippin (lotr fan! lol) relationship. If you've seen ROTK, Merry said that "hey would get him (pippin) into the worst sort of trouble." that would be my sister and i would be pippin! lol

Ahah, I love your style : D and Miguels eyes fit. But both their expressions are dead on :] I do like the coin, fantastic <3

April '05! My goodness, it's taken me a long while to stumble upon this. It's utterly fantastic, I must say, and I can vouch for the extreme watchability of Road to El Dorado. Excellent work!

(Oh, and I may just be able to provide you with the Kline & Branagh version of the track, if after all these years you're still interested/devoid of it?)

This is fantastic! I love the style you have! The way you draw hands looks like it's effortless for you. And the expressions on their faces (especially Miguel's) are absolutely perfect. This is hands down my favorite RtED fanart here on deviantART (and believe me, I have looked EVERYWHERE for it).

And now I have that song stuck in my head... I love how that movie was totally inspired by the Hope and Crosby "Road To" movies I watched when I was really little.

Wow, it's been about 7 years since it came out. I saw it in theaters on April 1st. Oh the MEMORIES!

I just got the DVD for my birthday (I had it, but a friend of mine LOST IT)! It makes me super happy. ^^

Wowwwww i love the really nice sketchy sort of quality that you manage to make look professional. I could see the coin! Its perfect for Tulio, and his expression matches him nicely too. Thanks for the RtED eye candy Fave.
