Description Tyrannosaurs again. Kind of fun to draw, actually. Another years old drawing, un-retouched y human hands. If done today, I'd likely add feathers to the chicks and maybe the mom holding one of them down. Hey! She needs her sleep too, you know!

Oh yes, I make no apologies for the manus positions, to anyone, paleontologists included. If T-rexes could not pronate their hands, then, basically, considering the position of the upper arms, I contend their hands are drawn basically correctly.

If some scientist wants to claim they could not lift their arms like this, I have to wonder what they think the ol' rexies did when attacking prey, making little bitty rexies, or playing poker.

If theropods' arms and hands are as stiff and immovable as some scientists claim, then they would all have broken something. Think about it: imagine you cannot move your arms and hands beyond a few inches in any direction and have to fight someone, they'd very likely break their hands and wrists, and claws, and---you get the idea.

I'm somewhat also annoyed by people who don't read signs in museums, zoos, etc.: [link]

Welcome to my world, T-Prime, welcome to my world. Most people lack a curiosity app in their souls. Fortunately, they are matched in numbers by those who do. Most of these people mentioned in the article were only at the museum to please their kids. It's a sad fact that many parents seem to think that what interests their kids must be childish and not worthwhile for an adult to know.

Not joking! Pity the country if a majority of children get curious about politics or economics or anything like that. Many of their parents would then completely turn off their minds to it, automatically.

When I was a kid, about fourth or fifth grade, I made up my mind to never forget what it was like to be a child, to be an insatiable curiosity machine, to map my brain and soul with wonders, and to see wondrous beauty in the mundane world around me. I like to think I have succeeded, but who knows? So many people deliberately turn off their minds. Why? Because they think it's the "IN" thing to do.

FOOLS!!!!! But without fools, who would I have to make fun of without feeling guilty?

Think about it!

Also a very nice sketch. I especially like the shapes of the trees in the background and the overall perspective in this piece. This has a very natural feel to it, and the tyrannosaurs look pretty good I must say.

Cool! I got ahead of myself! I'm uploading more stuff, including an ongoing piece I'm working off of Paleo King's Argentinosaurus muscle drawing. It's still a work in progress, so more will be forthcoming soon.
