please watch this i love him
Okay, don't get me wrong here. I LOVE Jurassic Park. I love seeing their dinosaurs. But after watching Prehistoric Planet, and going back to look at this...
And then looking at this...
Notice how much healthier the second set looks? Their lips cover their teeth, they actually have fat on their bodies, their skin doesn't wrinkle like they're dehydrated. You can't see every single tendon and muscle move because you aren't supposed to. Dinosaurs are animals, not reptilian body-builders.
THIS is the kind of change I want to see in how we create realistic depictions of not only dinosaurs, but all prehistoric creatures. Paleoart has always had a huge issue with shrink-wrapping and making these animals look terrifying instead of making them look like, well, animals.
Well done, BBC.
This is the most dad shaped dinosaur i’ve ever seen in my life i cant stop looking at him
ESP|| No sé si soy yo o el tiempo esta un poco loco, un día voy en tirantes i pantalones cortos y el otro voy más abrigada que este dinosaurio! Diría que ya podemos guardar las bufandas en el armario hasta el año que viene pero no lo tengo tan claro… ❄️☀️🌜 Os gusta este personajillo? Lleva escondido des de principios de año, a diferencia de mi, ella ve que nieva y no piensa en hibernación, si no que coge su patinete y sale a intentar ser mas veloz que el viento! Pequeño esbozo realizado en @procreate inspirado a partes iguales en el emoticono de Whatsapp que me encanta y me tenia obsesionada hasta que descubrí los stickers de Telegram, en Piecito de “En busca del valle encantado” (una memoria lejana de mi infancia) y en @animalsmechanic 🦕 ENG|| I don't know if it's me or the weather is a bit crazy, one day I'm wearing tank tops and shorts and the other I'm wearing more scarves, coats, sweaters,… than this dinosaur! I would say that we can keep the scarves in the closet until next year, but I'm not so sure anymore... ❄️☀️🌜 Do you like this character? She has been hiding since the beginning of the year, unlike me, she sees that it’s snowing and she doesn’t think about hibernation instead she takes her longboard and goes out to try to be faster than the wind! Small sketch made in @procreate inspired in equal parts by the WhatsApp emoticon which I love and had me obsessed with until I discovered the wonderful telegram stickers, by Littlefoot from “The Land Before Time” (a distant memory of my childhood) and @animalsmechanic 🦕
