Description Skull diagram of Dilong (emperor dragon). Not sure why this deserves that name, it would probably be better suited with Guanlong and its crown. The scale bar is 10 cm.

Edit: Now with 100% more mandible! (also fancier scale bar)

Nice and lean. The lower jaw fitting with the upper jaw looks a bit odd though.

Well, its been Franoys approved, and all bones articulate correctly and are based of the fossils. So idk

Very nice job. Why not restore the lower jaw though?

I didn't really consider it for this, the lower jaw isn't as interesting as the cranium, and this was drawn mostly because all other Dilong crania diagrams weren't really in line with what I could see of the fossils.
