Partial Spinosaurus

Something I'm working on. Been awhile since I uploaded anything new.

One Pink Dinosaur..

I just finished this thing off. Check out the last post for the specifics. My 'theory' for the color is based off of the flamingo and golden hammerhead, the prey (shrimp and fish,) eat a food item that causes their colors to change. The predator eats the fish or shrimp and they also change color. Same thing here, only replace fish with ostrich mimic;) It might not be perfect, but I at least thought about it;)

I recieved my copy of Gregory S. Paul's new book, haven't read it but flipped through it. Is is just me or do the new restorations look... stunted? The legs appear too short for several of the theropods and the heads look really big... I've seen lots of different restorations of these animals and they don't look like that. Strange. All the 'lumping' seems a bit extensive, and I'm still not seeing Jane as a juvenile T. rex. There is a juvenile Tarbosaurus that looks nothing like her... And the reason GSP gives? We haven't found any adults of  Jane the Nanotyrannus so she must be a juvenile T. rex. Even I can see through that, we have a whopping 2 skeletons and one's just a head! I'm a bit disappointed, I was hoping for another PDW but this seems more of like an overview. And why are there so many Giraffatitan skeletons and a dirth of Titanosaurs...? I'll have to see if I change my mind upon actually reading it;)

Feathered Dryptosaurus for Charity!

Over on Art Evolved, they are having an art contest for charity, for info go here! The idea is to draw a pink dinosaur and then send it over to them. They will then put in $2 for cancer research. So I did this up. I haven't had a chance to color it yet, hopefully later today, so if you feel the need to draw some dinosaurs pick up a pencil and lend a hand!

Concavenator!

More on this guy over at Tet Zoo and Theropoda. I'm still geeking that it had quill knobs and that hump! Awesomeness!

Art Evolved Pop Culture Gallery!

Not in the gallery but still pop culture (From the Extinction Event comic back in 2002.) But there are lots of fun images there so go take a look!

Also, my ears were burning yesterday and here's why. Over on Dinosaur Tracking they are discussing the new Jurassic Park comic from IDW. I guess the interior dinosaurs didn't go over that well. Brian did mention my name as a better choice, and for that, I thank you:)

Nanosaur!

Years ago I did a cover for this small company, not sure if it ever actually came out but I happened upon the art today. Enjoy, scoff, ridicule. I know the 'raptor' deosn't have feathers. I tried they refused, of course this was like 2001 or something ...

Now I'm on Archosaur Musings!

I recently (like yesterday, how's that for speed?!) did an interview for Dave Hone's Archosaur Musings. So if you want to read about it head on over, leave a comment if you have questions, I'll try to answer them:)

But for now, here's a work in progress of Sinotyrannus. He's got chicken legs!
