Gryphon Art- update 4/9

[Meso-Cenozoic]

Ooh, I am liking this, Chris!

I wonder if those huge sauropods even knew what was going on down by their feet half the time, lol.

[Gryphoceratops]

Thanks Chuck.   

If I had to guess...I'd say they don't have a clue.  Their heads were literally up in the clouds haha.

Looks promising! those in the background are Pelorosaurus?

Yup!

Had this one done for a while but never got around to scanning it.  It was actually commissioned for the Bergen County Zoo's horseshoe crab exhibit.  I had plenty of freedom with it since it only needed to include horseshoe crabs and dinosaurs together (playing up the whole living fossil thing) so naturally I picked a NJ scene with Dryptosaurus.  This time its a curious baby.  If the scene looks a little awkward spacially (it does to me) its because the scanner was smaller than the painting and a good strip of the scene was cut off the top.

Beautiful.

[ZoPteryx]

Excellent job!  I wish I could paint like that!

[Gryphoceratops]

Thanks guys.  Here is heterdontosaurus I had to bang out for the Jersey Boys blog weekly dino post.  Don't worry that English scene is still on the way! 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Nice !

Love the active and aggressive poses !

[Jetoar]

Beautiful draw!  . I like the feathereds  such as spine .

[Yutyrannus]

Very cool! My favorite reconstuction of the creature so far!

[Gryphoceratops]

Thanks everyone!  Here are a bunch more.  Including the finally completed Eotyrannus scene!



Apatosaurus



Struthiomimus



And a modified version of the parasaurolophus I did last year.  Its less emaciated-looking.  Or at least I tried to make it so.  Watercolors are tough to fix.   



enjoy

[Himmapaan]

Gorgeous. And I love the reworked Parasaurolophus.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

The Para's colors and really everything just works so well together.

I do like how the Struthio is taking a break from running and just sitting around thinking for once.. lol

[Gryphoceratops]

Thanks guys! 

Yeah I wanted to do an ornithomimid doing something other than running for once haha.  That pose is actually based on something I saw one of the Rhea's at the zoo do.  The bird was actually sitting flat on its foot bones, sort of plantigrade.    I figure if a rhea could do it, so could a struthio, especially with the help of the tail to form a tripod.

OH WOW! Oh wow! Okay, Gryph you're even more amazing. This is amazing! I'm just... how do I even talk about this when I don't have the words? I love the little feathers around this fellow/gal. The pose is fantastic and the spread arms/wings really is cool.

[ZoPteryx]

That's so cool, and terrifying! *runs away screaming*
