r/Dinosaurs

Mines Styracosaurus, I like the spikes :D

Hi I’m an artist born and raised in Malaysia. Haven’t drawn prehistoric animals in years. These past two years I’ve been reeled back into slight obsession so here are some works:

1. ⁠Begin Thine Consciousness.

54x37.5cm

A personal piece about creative and spiritual reawakening. I live with two free roam rabbits. As an artist I’ve noticed how much joy and fantasy my bunnies bring to my home and life- capturing moments of creative and spiritual awakening. Having reflected and pursued this feeling down to its roots, this artwork is a tribute to the paleo-art of old: Charles Knight, Walking with Dinosaurs, old and cheap plastic toys of the 90s etc.

2, 3, 4. Pika Adventure (working title) A dark fantasy graphic novel I’m working on involving one of my rabbits.

42x29.5cm

Odes to the Crystal Palace Iguanodon as well as more Dimetrodons, and an avian dinosaur.

5. Fossil Fuels

37.5x54cm

Even more Dimetrodons. I was also inspired by Gabriel Ugueto’s depictions.

6. Something I’ve been working on the past two days 😬

These are all done with pen on paper, with a ton of nostalgia. I have since discovered so much has changed with what we know about dinosaurs, and I’m excited to explore more up to date paleo art 😌

just a little meme interpretation of what we saw on the last episode of "The Dinosaurs" on Netflix

Don't let its size fool you because Guanlong has the fierceness of a T rex, launching itself using its crest to cut everything in its path.

I’ve seen quite a bit of variation in different Spinosaurus aegyptiacus skull reconstructions, especially regarding crest shape and overall proportions.

(This image is just something I came across — not my models 😅)

Given how fragmentary the material is, and that some specimens have historically been mixed or reassigned, I’m curious:

– How much variation in skull shape is actually supported by current research?

– How much of what we see in reconstructions is interpretation?

– Are some of these more extreme crest shapes actually supported by fossil material?

I’ve made a Spinosaurus model that I’m pretty happy with, and I’m wondering whether differences like a more pronounced crest would be within expected variation, or if they would require fundamentally different underlying anatomy 😅

I’m trying to stay as accurate as possible for modeling, so any solid references or papers would be hugely appreciated 🙌

Since I've been a unicorn x Spino mira kick lately, I thought it'd be fun to draw one like those collectable carousel figures.

I took inspiration from those rainbow marshmallow twists candies for the "horn" and ended up coloring the sail and tail in those colors as well.

Allosaurus & Diplodocus would normally be predator & prey, but I really don't think someone told these guys...

Hey dinosaur lovers and experts!

I have a question for you guys and im curious if you can answer on first sight! I can add some more detailed pics as well in case its not easy to tell with these ones.

I found this in the Eastern Pyrenees in the south west of France close to the border to Spain. It is roughly 6cmx5cmx3,5cm and heavy compared to other stones or rocks this size. I got curious because it is formed from all these fossils and shell parts, mussel parts and all this stuff. It was in the mountains far away from where the sea is now so these are for sure old fossils and i always found that this thing is weirdly well shaped in terms of being round, not edgy and stuff. But i always thought its maybe manmade material also being so heavy and near a railroad or maybe just randomly formed like this over time in the ground.

So today i learned that some dinosaur poop looks kind of like this, sometimes with these pieces of shells and stuff.

So if any of you can help me out it would be really great, thank you already for replying! 🦕

Hey guys, this will be the last one until May. I unfortunately ran out of dino figures.🥺

A simple one this time: the PNSO Tuojiangosaurus—a good pairing for Yangchuanosaurus. It’s the Asian counterpart to the paleo duo Allosaurus and Stegosaurus.

Due to the large scales prominent in the previous generation of PNSO figures, it was quite difficult to apply the paint. Nevertheless, I’m happy with the final product.

Anyhow, be on the lookout for my next figures—who knows, maybe I’ll get the articulated T. rex, or even a sauropod 👀
