1. Indominus Rex

2. Giganotasaurus Gen 2

My original idea was “the dinosaurs have come back, and you’ve left your door unlocked”. But then that would require the dinosaurs using doorknobs. So now the idea is they’ve come out of the tv after you left it on before going to bed. Shout out to my lady Dino nerds 🦖🖤

Happy 4th of July! (OC)

i always imagined the pachy as a hot headed dino xd

Very happy with how it turned out!
In the future I wanna make one with my Biryonyx and Panrasaurolophus.

my color interpretation of a Giganotosaurus

I’m working on a dinosaur character for my mobile game called Extinction of the Exaverse, where evolved dinosaurs fight AI robots. I’m going for a 8bit style, retro arcade feel.

First pic my character, second is a Parasaurolophus reference, third is from Jurassic World game.

This guy is the first playable dinosaur character and appears in the jungle biome. I’m trying to make sure the design reads clearly as a dinosaur even at tiny pixel-art scale.

My original thought was Parasaurolophus / maybe hadrosaur-inspired, but because it’s stylized, I’m curious what dinosaur people actually see first.

Does this read as:
•    Parasaurolophus?
•    another hadrosaur?
•    raptor-ish?
•    something totally different?

I’m especially curious about the crest, snout, and posture. I want it to feel dinosaur-like without losing the cute arcade/mobile-game readability.

just a derpy compy

An animation im working on, I've been trying to animate some zoomies to add after the second egg shake but I have been struggling with it either being to fast, sliding or just not working in perspective.

Hii!! I’m sorry if this is too specific for this subreddit or breaks the rules, that’s not my intention. Does anyone have any tips of resources for theropod foots? I‘ve kinda memorized the look of them but I think I don’t understand the underlying forms, which means I can only draw them at like the same 2 angles, haha. (I’m aware the legs in the middle look really stubby, they’re meant to be anthropomorphic, but if you’d like to offer advice please do! I would genuinely appreciate it.)

I also struggle with getting the toes and claws to look right. This image isn’t the best example but I feel like the end of the toes end up looking really… bulbous? Unnaturally so, like they’re swollen or something, lol. In the bottom doodles, the toes feel too big in general. And the claws are really difficult to get right too, tending to look too small in general and especially looking wrong at side angles.

Anyways, I’m sorry for the textwall, I was just wondering what resources/advice/criticism or anything anyone might have. (Preferably, if they’re image resources, images in the public domain/shared with the creator’s permission or something, if possible. I don’t want to download/study someone’s art without their permission.) I would really appreciate any help anyone can give. Thank you!!! :)))

(SCREW AI, JUST CREATE ART AND DON'T BE LAZY!) I recently seen an AI image of Stegosaurus, while the Speculative concept of it was cool, YOU SHOULDN'T USE AI, IM YOUNG AND I DRAW BETTER THAN AI. AI SLOP IS LITERALLY EVERYWHERE NOW IT SUCKS. Anyway, hope you like MY REAL drawing, it was hard for me since I always draw carnivores, but seeing AI inspired ME to do BETTER. Have an excellent day, and don't fall for AI traps and slop!

Ceratosaurus fue un género de dinosaurio terópodo carnívoro que vivió a finales del período Jurásico, hace aproximadamente entre 153 y 148 millones de años en lo que hoy es Norteamérica, Europa y África.

Had to share this panel (art by Eric Quigley) from "Empire of the Saurian: Mastering Chaos". It's ancient philosophies, Chinese-inspired fantasy, and wuxia warriors vs dinosaurs. I think Eric captured it pretty well in this.

Slow night, started doodling and a velociraptor was born and dubbed "Beans" by my one friend so...

Behold Beans!

Im ngl im really proud of it but my coworkers are mostly unimpressed. One said "thats not a dinosaur, its too bird lookin' ". That hurt me like... whos gonna tell her birds ARE dinosaurs too.
