Description
I switched what skeletal I was referencing due to the limbs on the Taylor brach not being scaled correctly.A lot of things got changed in the front and top views. I thickened the front limbs a lot from the front as well as giving them a slight bend in the neutral position. The top view also got thicker.
I replaced the scale texture I made with a newer one. (now it no longer looks like a fish)
I would like to thank Smilis and Synchrolight of JFD who helped out quite a lot with their anatomical advice.

I saw the animations on youtube. Truly a great model!

What i'd give to see this in real life. I wanna live out my Jurassic Park dream.

Nice! I like Scott's Brachiosaurus. I can see the forelimbs are thicker, but not the hindlimbs. The legs actually needed more flesh than the arms. As Paleo-King said, most of the torso's weight is centered at the hips, so it would make sense to have relatively thick legs.

True. The robust arms are an improvement, but the legs also need to be more robust - LOT more robust. With how thin they are, they almost look like Diplodocus legs if you were to ignore the body they're attached to. It doesn't need to be titanosaur-level thick, but at least 50% more diamater than what we have here, would be needed. They should be both slightly wider and slightly deeper from anterior to posterior, than the arms. Also, the first toe claw MAY be a bit oversized... at least judging by Giraffatitan, since we don't have described feet for Brachiosaurus.
Otherwise, everything else looks right on this. I actually like the "macaw" head pattern.

I don't like the frontal view of the head... sorry just my personal opinion
