Disney Backgrounds as Murals

[coatifan]

Just had a great idea: using the painted backgrounds from Disney movies as murals in-game, as the style is remarkably similar. Here are some taken from the Rescuers Down Under, which I'll probably use for my Australia section:

I'll try to find more soon.

I think that's all for now, but I'd love to see others contribute and I hope you find a use for some of these!

Thanks! So now i can make an enclosure with two bears, two mooses and some mammoths?
Jokes aside, really nice resources, i really wants other biomes murals in the game without using the billboards..

Question:
The backgrounds have to be related only to Disney movies? Because i think Kung Fu Panda could have nice Asian landscape.

Of course not! Anything could work; I focused on Disney because they have a lot of painted backgrounds which remind me of the murals I've seen in real zoos.

Sleeping Beauty also has the most gorgeous painted backgrounds. Eyvind Earle's background art is super inspiring
