Description
I used to draw these kind of things a lot as a kid, but had completely forgotten about it. Decided to do it give it a try since it's like almost ten years ago or so.It's rather quick and some things are indeed of, I think, so I'll give those a quick summary:
Protoceratops and Velociraptor are a little bit too large, I think, but compared with each other they're quite alright.
Not entirely sure about Pachycephalosaurus, I draw those kind of animals as good as never.
Stegosaurus is small! I used Scott Hartman's "How big is your favorite dinosaur?" size shart, but ended up drawing one of the smaller specimens apparently. Steg could've gotten quite a lot bigger than shown here.
Iguanodon might be a bit too small too. You could definitely add a meter more in its length, I think, even though it's a massive animal already here.
Spinosaurus is the theropod I have the most difficulties with in getting it right. Them legs, so small, actually a bit too small... Here are the right proportions: media.farsnews.com/media/Uploa…
Note that I made this one a thick-skinned underwater running theropod with extra tissue on its sail to prevent it from falling over. (don't know if I gave it enough soft tissue for this though)
I'll probably make another one where I'm more sure about the animal's sizes. And maybe more dinosaurs in it too.

Hmm. I see. Thank you for answering, sir.
Though if it's alright to ask, shouldn't S. ungulates be the nomen dubium? The armatus species was found first, correct? So shouldn't its have the naming rights?

That is not what nomen dubium means.

...sorry, I mistook it for something else for a second. My bad.
EDIT: Okay, I just re-read the article; I first thought it said that the armatus and ungulates species were now considered the same. What it apparently was is that the original type species isn't known enough from fossil remains, and it's too fragmentary to be considered it's own species. Pardon me, I made a mistake.

I got corrected that S. stenops is only this big. S. ungulatus was actually quite bigger, so we still have a large Stegosaurus. And there's also Dacentrurus

This is possibly one of the coolest size charts I've ever seen.
On the other hand, it might be the only deviation ever where Spinosaurus's legs are too small.

Very beautifully-rendered, all the creatures have excellent coloring!
No, the Velociraptor and Protoceratops are fine! Velociraptor was around the size of a German Shepard, Protoceratops the size of a sheep.

I've yet to see a modern version of these and this is pretty awesome. I think you should definitely try to do another after this if youi're up to it.

Oh yes, I'm definitely thinking about making another one.

Might I suggest Nigersaurus or Brachytrachelopan as one of the dinosaurs chosen? Any smaller sauropod would be interesting, really.

Dontknowwhattodraw94 In reply to QueenSerenity2012 [2016-01-06 18:20:27 +0000 UTC]
I was more thinking about using a Prosauropod and a giant sauropod, but Nigersaurus is an interesting animal. Might shove it somewhere between the rest if I have enough place

QueenSerenity2012 In reply to Dontknowwhattodraw94 [2016-01-06 18:27:08 +0000 UTC]
You could switch that around, giant basal sauropodomorph like Lessemsaurus or Melanorosaurus and then use a small sauropod like Nigersaurus.

That's another possibility. I might try to use several papers for a big lineup, then I can do both options.

Incredibly beautiful! You should do more drawings like this. I especialy love the shaggy pelt on Pachycephalosaurus.

Just colour pencils, but from different kinds of brands. Some of the animals, like the Diplodocus' neck for example has two or three layers for the orange colour so I guess it's that what gives it this look.

Very Nice. Although i wouldn't put big dewlaps on Diplodocus though, could ,make it look bigger.

I don't see a lot of problems with it if they aren't that big. I was doubting if the one here could maybe cause some problems in dense vegetation, but I dunno. At least I don't plan to put them on Bronto- or Apatosaurs anymore since the brontosmash idea.
