For some reason they look very realistic to me. Everything here though is spectacular.dadlernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653345901774701895.post-71346917106484395502015-02-20T04:14:18.338-08:002015-02-20T04:14:18.338-08:00What, we don't get to see the version of Dread...What, we don't get to see the version of <i>Dreadnoughtus</i> with the house?<br /><br />The <i>Deinonychus</i> threw me completely on first viewing: I thought you'd depicted it having dropped to a quadrupedal pose: the lower end of (what I now realise is) the left hindlimb is aligned so closely with the folded forelimb that it looks like a continuation of it. And those two tree-roots are so positioned that, out of the corner of the eye, they look like they could be the hindlimbs. Might be worth lightly tweaking the composition to avoid this?<br /><br />Very nice <i>Parasaurolophus</i> -- quite Conwayesque.<br /><br />Does that <i>Carnotaurus</i> have ... a beak? Well, no -- but I had to zoom through to the higher-resolution image to realise we were seeing the jaws open from an unusual angle. Looks really weird. Like, <i>really</i> weird.<br /><br />Anyway, some great work here. Thanks for sharing it, and good luck with the prints!Mike Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06039663158335543317noreply@blogger.com
