Description This was a t-shirt commissions for Hizoku as a part of their Monster Blood series. Keep an eye out on their site if you're thinking you might wanna wear it! They'll be launching soon fairly soon. I'll also make a journal when it's available.

This was a blast to do, and I really hope you guys enjoy it. Always been a big fan of dinosaurs, and I finally got the opportunity to paint some.



Thanks go to `adonihs and *PearlPhoenix for their help on this one, you guys rule.

Congrats on being on a shirt! This is a great piece. The detail is awesome. I like your choice of colors and I think even though they are vibrant, they work very well that way. Love that raptor on him.

This is amazing. Your gallery is simply amazing. This art reminds me of the Dinosaur Ride at The Animal Kingdom, Walt Disney World where the time vehicle goes back to the Cretaceous period!! I really like the ride, but because of my back, I have to limit the ride to once per trip. Anyhoo, your art is incredibly cool

Is cretaceous Latin for "awesome". Just wondering?

The Cretaceous was a portion of the Mesozoic era, when some of the most well-known theropods lived.
Its end was the extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs and other large animals.

you should more sharpen the tail of the T-rex, also sharpen tha backs of the lil cute dinos, smoke could be better and the foot seems like motion blur, but motion blur looks a lil bit different to yours. but the rest N1 work. u will get fav if the motion blur is physically correct, so my mind can accept it as real

You do realize there's a way to critique something without being condescending or pretentious right?

Don't comment on my work unless you're going to be more tactful next time.

I LOVE the volcano!

And as far as the saturation, I like it.. I think it adds humidity to the air that's present in really green/tropical areas. Maybe I'm just weird lol

I adore dinosaurs and glad you got a chance to paint some. I love the entire piece. I just sat and looked at all the details, like perspective, grass, fire, smoke, etc. It's all fantastic.

When an object is hit by a harsh light, it's usually blackened out/silhouetted. There's no reason for there to be detail, it's fine the way it is :]
