Description
Now, it's done!Well, the process behind the scenes can be described as "Ten percent inspiration, Ninety percent transpiration", since I reworked the stance and the placements of the Allosaurs multiple times as you can see in the concept sketches I did before. But now, it's 100 % joy for me to look at my interpretation of Live the Legend's Allosaurus, which I placed on a dry, slightly sandy ground, accompanied by ferns and horsetails.

Omg ! I wanna an allosaurus pup !
So adorable...
They dont grow much; right ?

They would be sooo cute, and maybe Little Al would sleep next to you
Hmm... if coming close to 30 ft, when becoming adults doesn't bother you

This is amazing
Allosaurus is an excellent Dinosaur
Like the shock absorber crest-horns too; they also actually protected their eyes from bright light too!

Thank you much, I did this once for an RP forum.
And for sure, they have the special something
Here, the crests look massive, but maybe they were to fragile in order to be used in a combat situation, however they look beautiful.

Well I think they protected just enough, in case there was a head impact for some reason, but they have other uses too

The aspect of protection would make sense, because it is known from some fossils (Daspletosaurus and some other species), that theropods bit into the faces of their opponents.Β

Hehe yeah
Gotta use their mouths for something!

Exactly how I would picture them...like a gigantic Tiger ~ Β

To me allosaurs with stripes look very handsome. Maybe they had stripes or another pattern
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah Allosaurus always look good in stripes, I usually compared to being just like Tigers, because their so wide ranged in their family and dominant most of Asia and are pretty gigantic than most theropods.

I'm always impressed by the size range, that Allosauroids had from mid sized allosaurs to a huge Giganotosaurus.

Yes I don't blame, I quite amazed myself. It's practically scares me a bit when I see a skeleton of one.

Yes, the female is larger than the male as it was described in the field guide of the no longer existing Live the Legend RPG.

I know, just every time I see a large theropod I always assume their females cause of tyrannosaur females and program The ballad of big Al

Maybe, their females were larger, who knows
It is hard to tell from a fossil if the dinosaur was even male or female and documentaries like WWD might have contributed to this idea. I just followed the field guide

They think it might the size of their pelvises to figure out which is which, then again that's just a theoryΒ

I love this! The sizes and colors are perfect. And nice poses!

It is also one of my personal favorites. 
Sadly

That is unfortunate...
You could always join Pangearas , and have an Allosaurus partner animal...

Somehow, this idea has already infected my mind...

Looks like the one on Jurassic Park operation genesis.

Well, they aren't based on the ones in JPOG, but probably the Live the Legend Allosaurus have some similarities with them. Thank you for the

Yeah allosaurus is one of my faves ( T REX FTW)

So, let's hope that our dreams come true

The males head looks a bit odd, mainly due to the placement of the eye, but they are great nevertheless.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
The shape of the males head is a bit different in contrast to the one of the female. I wanted to give the male a less robust look, because the males are smaller in comparison to the female Allosaurus in the LtL Field Guide.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hmmm, that is a bit odd. People assume that sexual dimorphism would work like that in dinosaurs, when really, there is no evidence for it. Some birds have it, and other birds do not, but there is no majority, not to mention, crocs tend to go the other way. It does not really matter, as it is not inaccurate, just a bit of a meme.
π: 0 β©: 1
Who knows, how sexual dimorphism worked in the different dinosaur species. I just followed the description in the "Live the Legend" field guide in order to create this illustration for the RPG. I can't predict if we will know it one day in the future or never.
If we look at the today's fauna, then in most of the cases the male is the larger individual, but there are also species, which don't have a visible dimorphism.
π: 0 β©: 1
It is not quite so square, not in archosaurs anyway. Eagles and most rattites have larger females, but then again, that is counter balanced by other animals. Really, it is impossible to tell, mainly because we have no living archosaur analogues to the animals in question, so there is nothing to compare.
It does not matter anyway, if you are just doing what they say, then that is that, not to mention, as I said, it is not inaccurate, I am just tired of seeing memes repeated.Β

It was just some sort of commission for me. If someone requested an Allosaur with neon pink spots along its body, then I would draw it in that way for the particular person, while I draw the Allosaurs, which are meant to be for my own pleasure to my own liking.

I really think the details on these allos are astounding.

Thank you kindly for your words. 
I'm quite inactive in the RPG, so I didn't post in a while, although it is tempting me, but there are some things I've to do too. But, I visit the page from time to time and read the one or another post. And I noticed, many of the players are occupied by other things at this time and also not active.
Sure, if you are interested in the RPG and have time for it, then join, but it is not a must.

Thank you much for comment and fave. Maybe Allosaurus had a family life as well.
π: 0 β©: 1
Youβre welcome. I was reading that they nested communally Leaving one ore more females to look after the young (I wonder what would dare to attack them)? Β Β Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh, I never read about that 
I assumed, nothing would dare to get too close to an Allosaurus' nest nor its young.

I should get active in LtL again (I'm D4E), but I'm just not sure where to start anymore. From looking afar, the changes made seem to be working, but I've been personally reluctant to rejoin. These Allosaurus are awesome! Are these for the Field Guide or is it just fan art?
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I'm actually working on a game project called Prehistoric Kingdom, making some of the dinosaur models for them or painting the (JP like) skins and that's why I became slightly inactive on LtL
Thank you for the compliment and the

Nice work and it looks like JPOG Allosaurus.
π: 0 β©: 1
Interesting to hear, because I didn't base them of the JPOG version.

I miss LtL, those were the good ol' days for me. I'm not active on JPLegacy anymore though and LtL became too cluttered for me with all the new content that was added a while ago, the new islands and the mainland and such.
