Tyrannosaurus wins by a claw.
I love this painting. It reminds me of the Star Wars and Jurassic Park enthusiasts in my class of 8 year olds.

You are such an awesome artist! I really love your style! This Picture reminds me of when I was a kid and my brother's friends would spend the night... I would walk in the living room and him and his friends would be playing with action figures, dinosaurs, ect... lol! Thanks for the little bit of nostalgia

That's super cute! It's always amusing to see how kids use toys... I know I've played house with matchbox cars before. Hehe.

If Luke can take out a Rancor Darth Vader would totally annihilate a Tyrannosaurus.

I absolutely love this, from the nostalgia of the toys (being a 1970s kid myself) and the little details, like the way you did their jammies and allowed the paint to run as the floorboards. But I'm curious why you depicted the faces so solemnly, since they're in the act of play. Not smiling, not roaring with the T-Rex. It gives it a surreal, almost sad feel. Possibly what you were going for. Not a crit, just more curious about the feeling behind the piece.

Beautiful! Great concept.
I like the detail of the other action figure. It's from the Masters of the universe Right? But I've forgotten his name.

From the title, I thought this was going to be a take off of Brandon Bird's work.
He did a piece of a Tyrannosaurus Rex vs. a sperm whale vs. a giant squid.
Also, Bea Arthur vs. Velocoraptors.

Tri-Klops! Great work, makes me wax nostalgic... none of our toys had genres, lines or barriers when it was playtime, that's for sure.

Love the painting. So warm and immersive...it feels like being the 4th boy in the scene.
It also feels like a contemporary Leyendecker image . This is my favourite of today's submissions
