Description Megaraptorans are a intresting subject to draw in paleoart mostly because of they're enigmatic nature. There body isnt much diffrent from other theropods but the head and hands are what you need to know on drawing them
1. The head of most early depictions of Megaraptors are seen as allosaur like but in reality based on the partial skulls of the juvenile Megaraptor and the Murusaraptor skull, we belive that they most likely possessed long low snouts with sharp serrated teeth.
2. The hands of megaraptorans are the most unusual hand in the theropoda. They resemble regluar theropod hands you would see on Allosaurus but with one cool feature. Megaraptorans possessed a large claw on the first finger that was gigamtic in the biggest species and likey was a formidable weapon in prey capture or fighting. The hands somewhat resemble the hands of spinosaurs in a way.
These are the things to know about drawing thes megaraptorans in paleoart. Hopefully you paleoartist find this informative.

This is a good guide, a lot of people make their hand claws way too small and miss the fact that the first two claws are the largest of the hand. Yeah, some people still draw them too allosaur like as well. Thanks for making this.

Thank you very much for the appreciation! I am very careful with my accuracy and proportions. Also a lot of research and practice was put in this drawing too. I am very pleased to see that you and lots of other watchers appreciate this guide.
