There's criminally little fanart of Fiyero getting scarecrow-ified.
So, as per usual, I gotta do all this shit myself.

HOW DO YOU DO GRADIENTS IN PAINT LIKE THAT???
okay first off thank you for reminding me i was going to make a tutorial
So what you do is take your canvas (any size) and draw a diagonal line across it like so (can be any colors)
(Protip- hold shift while dragging the line tool to get a perfect diagonal)
Then go to the resize panel, resize by pixels, and change the horizontal size to 1 (TURN OFF ASPECT RATIO or it will make your entire canvas super small)
it will make your canvas the skinniest thing on planet earth but now what you do is go back to the resize panel and change the horizontal size back to what it was originally (in my case 576 but it works with everything)
and now you have a gradient made entirely in paint! super clean too
on the right is an example of one made with 3 lines (red, purple, pink) as an example of one with more than 2 colors if you want a smoother gradient. experiment! get wacky with it!
Now obviously with the gradient it gets hard to draw on (especially if you're going to be fillbucketing stuff) so under the cut is a bonus tutorial on how to transfer a drawing to a background (yippie!)
Start by drawing up your whatever on a seperate canvas but one that's the same size as your background
Do note that the way this works you have to make your color 2 on both canvases the same color and one that's NOT used in your drawing, else it becomes transparent- if you want to keep the color 2 white on both, make sure to color all white parts on your drawing with a very very slightly off-white to prevent this
Ctrl + A to select everything on your drawing canvas, then go back to your gradient and (making sure transparent selection is on) paste it in
Move the drawing however you want if it's not perfectly centered, add whatever else you want, and bam you're done
paint has a lot of cool tricks like this and when used it becomes as easy as any other program (save for, well, multiple layers)
I hear a lot of people bitching that they can’t leave kudos multiple times per story, or can’t leave kudos on every chapter, or whatever.
Well, take a page out of this marvelous book, because I swear I’ve never been so happy to receive kudos as waking up to multiple people having done this on multiple chapters on a story I just posted.
The bar just got raised, folks.
