It looks good to me but I have no art ability. You might check with our member Sepp she has a site OmmArt. She might be able to give you some tips. She uses a nice dinosaur logo.

Cool drawings. Have you tried using watercolors to paint your dinosaurs? A little hard to use, but it can produce some really interesting patters. I will ask youo the same question I asked EDB, have you submitted any of your drawings to Prehistoric Times magazine to be used/features in the magazine? You have the talent, I really think you should try and see, it would be super cool if you got your drawings in that magazine ( I just renewed my subscription for two years!) and see it, don't you think? Keep up the good work!  |

Thanks for supplying the info for PT art submissions bolesey. I have not yet gotten my magazine since I just renewed. Prehistoric Times is the magazine for all dinosaur collectors. It really is worth supporting since it is the only one of it's kind available and the price really is not bad. I always look forward to see what's new in the toy world and all.
So there yah go Tyrannax, I really hope you send Mike some of your drawings. It would be super cool to one day open an issue and see one or more of your drawings! Keep up the good work!

yes, PT is not just the only magazine of it's kind, when there were alternatives, it was the best. It does a great job of summarizing the latest developments in paleontology, but the focus is dinosaur art and collectibles.
I've missed a few since my subscription ran out - I'll have to resubscribe!

thanks guys! It sucks that the next one is due in over 2 months though :/ Hey boki, I'd like your opinion. What should I draw next? A better allosaurus, ceratosaurus, dilophosaurus, better (full body drawing) Tyrannosaurus, utahraptor or carnotaurus? Your call, i'm no good with decisions. |

Hmmm..... I have not subscribed to prehistoric times, but my thinking is that they would want something a little more, advanced, then what you draw,... Not to be mean or anything |

I say Utahraptor. I like those guys plus you don't see many illustrations of them.
OK, CT... not to be mean or anything? You should check out the "comic" strip part of PT, the artwork looks bad. I know what you mean by a little bit more advance, I think that is very true for all the scientific topic for the mag. But they do mix up drawings/illustration from amateur artist to professionals in their articles, they also have a section (at least they use to) called Readers Art that the readers of all age and skills can enter. So I highly encourage Tyrannax, and for everyone who have posted artworks, to give it a try. You never know until you try.
:oP

True, the range is greater than one might think: they do show some profesional paleoart, but also amateurish drawings That doesn't mean you shouldn't try harder, one must do one's best The Allosaurus is very nice, although the tail needs to be redone. And you should do a Dunkleosteus or another armoured fish! |

Please tell me what you think.
