#the lost world jurassic park

LIVE

Here it is, the final Jurassic June piece. And, instead of going for a baby, I gave the existing baby T. rex an edgy teen phase!

This juvenile T. rex is based on Jane, the fossil specimen argued to be a juvenile T. rex(orNanotyrannus to some). This makes the animal a lot more sleek and lithe, perfect for fast pursuits before it turns into a chunky tankbuster.

Enjoy and hope you’ve had fun this month!

Baby JP Compsognathus for Jurassic June! This is based on a mish-mash between animals like SinosauropteryxandCoelophysis, mostly due to the fact that the animal’s name changed during production. I imagine these would be super soft like a kitten, and not potentially ravenous like the adults. A real gamble for a cute pet in a post-Fallen Kingdom world.

I expect I can get 2 more done for the month, and I think they’re interesting subjects. Enjoy!

Another entry for Jurassic June(-ior), some pterosaurs! These are the Pteranodon from Jurassic World and the Geosternbergia that was present in concept art for The Lost World. The final movie used an actual Pteranodon, I guess I was just going for bonus points.

In other news, I gave them a healthy coating of pycnofibers (feather-like filaments on pterosaurs) even though, for instance, the JW Pteranodon is leathery and bare. This was based on the fact that birds like the Australian Ibis can have bald patches in adulthood that are feathery when young. Perhaps a bit of a stretch, but I’m trying to somewhat appease the proper paleo people as well. Enjoy!

Here are some hypothetical baby Jurassic Park hadrosaurs that pull from the film designs, fossil specimens of ParasaurolophusandHypacrosaurus, as well as general “baby” proportions the series has used before.

I won’t be doing daily uploads for Jurassic June, but some more JP ontogeny-themed drawings could be fun. Stay tuned!

And, here it finally is, the last Jurassic Palettes piece. I may come back to this idea in the future but it’s so nice to finally have finished this project as originally planned.

The T. rex is my favorite dino in the series, so this one was especially fun to work on. Second to the raptors, it (understandably) gets the lion’s share of cool color schemes from the franchise.

Enjoy!

The Male Tyrannosaurs are done! T. rex has some killer color schemes across the franchise and there’s so much good stuff to pull from. I know there are still some iconic rexes left unaddressed by this post, rest assured they’ll be in the next (and, for the moment, final) piece.

Happy Holidays!

Happy Halloween everybody!

So for a little bit now I’ve been putting together these palettes of different color schemes the JP dinos have had across the franchise over the years. Seemed themey to release them today what with everyone wearing all manner of costumes and makeup and such tonight. 

I’ve had a lot of fun making these even though I only have two to show off at the moment. I intend to do a lot more, so I’ll probably be gradually sharing more of these as time goes on. Hope people enjoy!

Likely the final entry in my impromptu Jurassinktober, it’s the Male Tyrannosaurus from the Lost World!

I love the way this rex looks from his colors, the scars, and all the extra saggy and pointy bits. It really makes him feel more like an individual character than even the female.

Also, I will likely show off some of the JP-related “project” I’ve been working on soon. Hopefully people will enjoy it. I’ve had a blast doing it.

Totally forgot to upload this here like a month ago, but with Prehistoric Planet now out in it’s entirety, I figured I would catch-up. Here is the father T. rexfromPrehistoric Planet (known to some as “Hank”) hanging out with some other Rex dads/families across paleomedia. See if you can name all the references!

Side note: Please watch Prehistoric Planet if you get a chance. It’s a refreshing look at dinos, it’s gorgeous, and you can watch it with an Apple+ free trial. I am in love with it.

Me and a friend were discussing dinosaurs in Animal Crossing, so I made this Jurassic Park crossover.

Triceratops is rockin’ that pre-covered-in-a-shit-ton-of-dirt color scheme.

Another set of JP color schemes for Parasaurolophus. I kinda wanted to include the one from JP: The Ride, but I felt like the ones here were from more “prominent” sources and got in more varying colors.
