New colored version of Dryptosaurus


Sorry for the giant gap in posts, been swamped at the regular job. So for now here's a new colored version of Dryptosaurus, hopefully I'll be able to get to that new Spinosaur and Tyrannosaur next week! Colors on this one were fixed by the wife;)

Best,

Brett

  1. The colours look really nice, good contrast and the brushes give it a really nice sculptural quality. great peice!

    not a big fan of the feather needles on the lower area of the calves but im guessing thats more of a personal design preference than an anatomical feature?

    where are you working nowadays?

  2. Thanks Taylor!

    Thanks Marco, the quills on the back of the calves are based on the micro raptor feather patterns. No actual evidence in tyrannosaurs, but I thought they looked cool;)

    BTW, I quite like your monster designs!

    Best!

  3. As always, the restoration is great, I love your smooth and concise lines, they are fantastic, and combined with the anatomy of these beasts... just great! Colors are very nice too, and I almost like the feathery integument (I know that most evidences suggest feathers for tyrannosaurs, but... I still prefer to imagine them as scaly big beasts...).
    My only critic/comment: the tail looks a little bit strange. That angle of the tail (like a 90ยบ degree turn) seems a little bit abrupt...
