Blade - Is the new sculpt a Carnotaurus??? Must see!!!!

Beautiful artwork, but here's a crit- its hands are zombified . The palms should be facing each other, like how birds do.



The deinonychus on the right is correct. The hands should be in a clapping position.

Hope this helps Just pointing out the mistake so that you can use it for reference in future. You have great skill, and you could go far in the paleoart community

@tyrantqueen - Thanks for the constructive crit and the reference image. I always have a hard time with the front claws on raptors. Thank you for pointing it out. I will be more conscious going forward!

@Concavenator - Thanks! Glad you like it!

@Spinosaurus - Thanks!!!

These are just lovely.  Wonderful rendering of a Xiaotingia zhengi, love the softness of the feathers you were able to achieve in the neck.
