Description
Please zoom in to see all the crazy details I did on the heads.
I did these a bit back, so you may have seen them on the Saurian development logs already. This was by far the hardest thing I've done on Saurian. Turns out like no one has done Pachy's head right and it took a ton of reworking and iteration to get right. This included tracing over numerous skulls to figure things out proper. After redoing the head of course I had to update the body of the adult which was very wrong in my previous illustration as well. Of course then I had to do the rest of the life stages, each with their own head puzzle to decipher. The hard part is that they keep the same osteoderm/horns throughout their growth, so you gotta keep track of where they shift to with age. It was like a nightmare to figure this shit out hahaha. Anyways guys, I'm really excited about Saurian, which if you didn't know is the game I work on. The most accurate dinosaurs out there, no exceptions. Suck it Mesozoica, you turds.

or maybe they arent growth astages and just their own species

not really, bones dont get absorbed unless the creature is extreamly malnourished, not to mention their braincases are very different

One question: Are all pachycephalosaurs, like Pachycephalosaurus, the only dinosaurs that can give birth to their hatchlings?!

It looks amazing, it has to be said but after reading Mark Witton's vlog-paper about dinosaur keratin growths on horns,
(markwitton-com.blogspot.co.uk/… )
I wondered if the same could be/ would be taken into account for the achy, or the trike for that matter.
Just saying tho, cuz the art looks amazing!

Why must you hate on Mesozoica? Why can't we all get along, more dino games the better imo
P.S Will Saurian adopt the theory that Stygimoloch and Dracorex are juvenile Pachycephalosaurs or will it be going under the stance that this is not true.

1-Agravo-1 since birds are dinosaurs I would like to try to find a Paleontologist and put out the novel theory that juveniles of one species can look like the adults of another. It happens a lot in birds. Bald Eagle and Golden Eagle are examples here.
Also why do the spikes on the head disappear? It makes no sense to me.
Why do they take pot shots at Mesozoica?
This is why:

The 2 biggest individual youngsters behind the adult (the subadult and juvenile) in this life cycle are Stygimoloch and Dracorex.

Two "species " is basically one pachy. That is neat ! And i was curious about Mesozoica what about them is there something going on here, looks like you pointing them out? Anyway great work i like it!

May I use this, as well as your Dakotaraptor, for referencing?

Me fascina el concepto del pachycephalosaurus.
Tan solo como critica constructiva, no crees que seria posible que tuviera flolículos en el dorso? Ciertamente los pachys y los ceratopsidos fueron el camino que se dividió de los heterodontosaurios.

I am fascinated by the concept of pachycephalosaurus.
Just as a constructive criticism, do not you think it would be possible to have feathers "type heterodontoaur" in the back? Certainly the pachys and the ceratopsids were the way that was divided of the heterodontosaurids.

There's nothing to suggest those types of filaments on Magrinocephalians. Only Psittacosaurus had something along those lines, but it was only in one specimen, and they were more like the horn of a South American bird called a Screamer.

If you were given the opportunity to do the designs for a proper Walking with Dinosaurs reboot, would you do it?

You mean did I use any photo textures in this? No, this guy is all hand painted.

Am I the only one dying because RJ called the people from Mesozoica turds?

Does this mean that Fabiani is now "Robert Roasted" ?

Roasted like a porchetta.

This is a lot better and a lot more accurate than your previous painting of Pachy, so thanks for fixing the mistakes you did on it!

Excellent work! I'm glad you went through all that trouble, because all too often you see restorations that even ignore integumentary detail that's clearly obvious from the skull.

Good job mate! Also I dont know if you are working in young ankylosaurs like Denversaurus or Ankylosaurus.
