Description
Alberta, Canada~ 75 Million years Ago:A scene in Late Cretaceous( Campanian stage) North America
A pair of Gorgosaurus libartus are attacking a lone Euoplocephalus tutus. The male( left ) distracts the herbivore, while his larger mate( right ) sneaks from behind. In the backround a Lambeosaurus lambei and in the sky a pair of Cretaceous birds. Also some Pterosaurs, one is a female Pteranodon longiceps. Large Conifers and some Cycads on the floor for plant life.
This was completly by accident when I was just doodling around with the male Gorgosaurus. Then I decided to add more to it. It took me almost 41/2 hours to draw, but it was worth it. HOPE YOU GUYS LIKE!!!

For this one, I just have to second yoult's words. One further thing is the wideness of Euo's body. Ankylosaurids - and most other ankylosaurs - are tremendously fat transversally; it really has to be seen to be believed. If you need a truckload of skeletals, drop me a note with your email adress.

Thanks, and I agree. This was the first time I drew a Ankylosaurian in serious work, I will send my email adress.

Be careful left Gorgosaurus! You are steping on the spiky tree stump!
Actually the scene is quite interesting, the idea behind it is good.
But in the drawing up are some errors.
It's highly impossible for an Theropod of this size to stand like the left Gorgosaurus, this is a behaviour we only know from small to medium sized birds, for example you will see a Cock doing this but not an Ostrich.
It's also presumable that the right Gorgosaurus couldn't stand there alive, where she stands, because ol' Euoplocephalus' tail isn't that bendy that he could put it above the tail of a Gorgosaurus. It would be correct if the Euo' tail is beneath Gorgo's, but this is actually harder to draw an maybe would destroy the scene.
There are also several problems perspective, some listed above. The footprints for example would never look like that and the hindlegs of Euo are way of, they must spread wider out as he has a thick belly.
I know that Aracuarias are a hard thing to draw if you're not experienced in it, but this trees sadly look awful against the nice drawn Dinosaurs.
A minor discrepancy is the fact that Euo is missing a finger on each hand.It's hard to see on most skeletons but all Thyreophora are five-fingered. Digit IV and V would be "clawless".
I hope you don't take the critique too hard. It's just a goal of mine, when seeing very good attempts I want to help making it the next time better. It would be a waste of your talent if nobody picks out the mistakes. And without critique (even if it's self-critique) we won't develop.
As I said before, I really like the scene you constructed here.
So keep up the good work and make it even better.

Thanks and I'm glad someone study my picture that precisely.
As far as the missing toes on my Euoplocephalus, this is the first time I actually drew a Ankylosaurian in serious work. And also the trees I drew were supposed to be Conifers, but I was not really fawned of plants. I'm now going to incorporate plant life into my work now. The footprints weren't from that Euoplocephalus instead from another individual(that I did not draw) and Hadrosaur and another Tyrannosaur.
So far this wasn't suppose to be a actual picture. If you can see the eraser marks were from earlier sketches that I erased and replaced with the Gorgosaurus. I then decided to add more to it. The "Attacking of Euoplocephalus" was the last idea I had(since I wanted Centrosaurus or Edmontonia). Eventually I added the trees and other Flora life, birds, Pterosaurs, and the Lambeosaurus in the backround since it looked too plain. I think if I had refered to a reference for my trees they would have came out better. Well there's always next time!!
Thanks again for the comment, also how do you use atalic in writing?
