Getting up and seeing 2 new theropods is a great start to a new day:)<BR/><BR/>I like Todd Marshals stuff quite a bit but he does tnd to 'ugly' them up a bit. I don't like dew laps myself.<BR/><BR/>From what I've manage to learn you basically have to get in good with a fairly famous paleontologist to get any art work in the field. Since I don't know any I guess I'll be a fringe guy;) But maybe things will change in a few years.<BR/><BR/>If you have the time do up a full body dino, then I'll get a better idea what you got:)<BR/><BR/>Best,<BR/><BR/>BrettBretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12168403050889835504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-68327275018045829.post-81715668557250414192008-02-14T02:59:00.000-07:002008-02-14T02:59:00.000-07:00Wow thanks ever so much for a reply!Very honoured....Wow thanks ever so much for a reply!<BR/>Very honoured. Yea I agree when they first showed the 'sail' Spinosaur I was very taken back. I'm not too sure but were the remains maybe found in a river bed? I mean, back then the Sahel was river delta; the bones could have been swept together...<BR/>Incidently, some dino news from that region has come up! <BR/>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7243665.stm<BR/>i find it funny how Todd Marshall is the artist of choice for Sereno's discoveries. I like his work, but he does go overthetop with frills and back spikes.<BR/>As for my lame excuse of a gallery, i admitt i haven't had much time to draw principally because i've been taken up with university degrees. Plus without owning a scanner or a tablet I feel very frustrated..I'll draw you a dino if you'd like?<BR/>Personally I like the smaller allosaurus type carnosaurs; T-rex and dromaeosaurids are totally over hyped. I still like my herbivores too, stegosaurids and ceratopids are crazy stuff :D<BR/><BR/>laterTCHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09208159726420294487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-68327275018045829.post-69418227484151111112008-02-13T10:16:00.000-07:002008-02-13T10:16:00.000-07:00Hi TCH,Interesting stuff, but I'll need to see mor...Hi TCH,<BR/><BR/>Interesting stuff, but I'll need to see more before I can really comment on it. <BR/><BR/>As for spino, I don't personally think it was as big as they are saying it was (55-65 feet.) Since the remains were so scattered and I read the initial reports on it I'm fairly sure it was a chimera (multiple species.) The jaw from a suchomimus like theropod the neck from a acrocanthosaurus like theropod and the spines from either a sauropod or large hadrosaur (rebbichisaurus type sauropodand ouranosaurus type hadrosaur.)So if the only real spinosaur material is the lower jaw which is much more robust than that of Suchomimus it's hard to rely on the large estimates since it puts it well out of the range of the other giant theropds (40-48 feet.)<BR/><BR/>This Cacharadontosaur species was larger than the original and lived with an un-described large spinosaurid (that's why I drew the bones.) It will be interesting to see what this one looks like:)<BR/><BR/>I'm a big fan of the Carcharodontosaurids myself. Although the spinosaurs have grown on me. T.rex is actually on of my least favorites, to over exposed;)<BR/><BR/>Best,<BR/><BR/>BrettBretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12168403050889835504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-68327275018045829.post-30109951418596509592008-02-13T09:51:00.000-07:002008-02-13T09:51:00.000-07:00Hi just wanted to say Im a longstanding fan of you...Hi just wanted to say Im a longstanding fan of your paleo-art and admire your talents since Im an artist (self-proclaimed lol) myself.<BR/>beast-of-chaos.deviantart.com If you could give me some advice on how to improve i would greatly appreciate!<BR/><BR/>As for the Carcharadontosaurus, we both know its much more the bad-ass than Spinosaurus ;).

The po...COMIKXGUY you seem to be missing the point. The point is these Creationists/Christians WON'T leave you alone, they will slowly keep taking and taking until this is a strictly christian country, No abortions, no free will, another tax to the christian god, no freedom to practice your own religion. If that's OK with you than fine, but it's not OK with me. I've head enough and am willing to draw a line in the sand. I'm happy to co-exists with them as long as they keep their beliefs to themselves and are not forcing them down my throat every 10 minuets. And I will not compromise on evolution which is not a belief but a scientific fact. It has been proven even before my lifetime. They will not compromise so they leave you with only one choice, to fight back. I am not simply one man, I'm one of a growing number who has decided to let my voice be hear. <BR/><BR/>Live and let Live is a nice policy but doesn't work well if your opponant doesn't agree. <BR/><BR/>If you don't want to debate, and seem to be debating on neither side so I don't really know why you chimed in, then stop debating and take your own advice. I didn't start this war of 'beliefs/nonbeliefs' I've just had enough. You don't have to read these posts, they are more for basic information or for me to get crap off my chest like this case.) You can just look at the picture which is why I posted it.

And by sitting by an letting them or ignoring them they take that as a go ahead to continue to do so.<BR/><BR/>It is my OPINION that there is no god, there is no proof either way but the evolution does have facts behind it where as creation unscience/ID do not.<BR/><BR/>It's time to take a stand for what you believe in. This is NOT a christian nation, it is a secular one. The founding fathers were deists NOT christians. The sooner the christians get this the sooner we can all move on (this is why everyone was afraid to vote for a christian like JFK, he managed to keep religion and government separate but that has changed.)<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>MUFFINHUNTER,<BR/><BR/>I watched the first hour but then House was one so I had to switch it;) I knew how it turned out as I've been keeping an eye on this stuff.
