In this work I tried to reimagine the Indominus rex in a more scientifically accurate style. I actually think that the Indominus is the most accurate of all creatures in Jurassic World. Think about it: it is the only creature to have some feathers (quills), and the only one to have a sort of "justification" to be scaly (it has carnotaurus DNA, and we know that carnotaurus was scaly, soo...). Iven so, I decided to give to the Indominus a coat of fethers (it also has t.rex and velociraptor DNA, two feathered dinosaurs), and i tried to correct some classic features of theropod dinosaurs in popular culture now considered to be wrong, like the exposed theeth and the pronated hands. Speaking about hands, I decided to mantein the forth claw, because some primitive theropods actually had fore claws, and I coverd the arms with feathers similiar to that of therizinosaurs, because they are closer to the quills in the movie. I also added the infamous raptor claw, I mean, WHY NOT! Now there's the hard part: colour changing. I'm not convinced that an animal with so crocodilian scales like the Indominus could change colour. I mean, the only reptile we know that can change colour is the chameleon, and it has very small scales. Colour changing in dinosaurs has been proposed many times, so I don't know, I could be wrong. However, I thought that the Indominus coat could work as polar bears'fur, reflecting light and colour of the environment.
