irimali's dinosaur art

[Gwangi]

Excellent work. I particularly like the sauropod and Kentrosaurus. Actually, they look like they would make nice tattoo designs and I have been on the lookout for dinosaur tattoo ideas.

Thanks!  What kind of dinosaur were you thinking of getting tattooed?

I have no real preference as long as it looks good. Originally I wanted a Tyrannosaurus, Allosaurus, Deinonychus or some other theropod but I really am open to anything. The only real reason I picked theropods over any of the herbivores is because I hadn't yet seen any designs for the herbivorous dinosaurs that I thought would work for a tattoo. Until now that is.

Your Dinosaur illustrations are very beautiful and unique, irimali.
I especially like this Coelophysis diorama .
What is the cute thing up there? Baby or prey?

Thank You!
That cute little guy is Dolabrosaurus.  It was part of a group of triassic lizards specialized for life in the trees.  Ceolophysis is looking at it as potential prey, so it's holding up its big thumb claws defensively.

Ah yes! Wonderful detail.

Until I have time to do some more drawing, I thought I'd post some photos.  These are all people with their bodies painted to be dinosaurs, other animals, etc.

This is a cake I just made for my portfolio.  I'm in school for baking right now.  Body is cake/buttercream, head/legs are rice krispie treats/fondant. Scales are all piped on.

Triceratops:

I kinda want to eat it and I sort of don't want to ruin it...I'm confused..and hungry.  I need to look in the fridge.

Thanks!  I wanted to do something like a peacock/rooster/turkey, especially the way the feathers really hide the skinny neck and change the animal's outline.
