Description
Date: 10/20/17-10/22/17Artist's Notes:
Scientists have no explanation for why this image exists.
Based on a dream I had in highschool and probably one of the coolest things I've drawn thus far. I really enjoyed this challenge as I love the asthetic of vintage dinosaur art although it did pain me a little bit to go against what the evidence suggests dinosaurs looked like, mostly for the maniraptor and sauropod like creatures.

Yeah, that was one of the inspirations. Definitely my favorite character from that game.

Wild and beautiful in its own way. The rider almost drowns in all that Dinosaur, haha. Neat drawing!
Also, just in case of Warhammer-esque interest: www.the-ninth-age.com/index.ph…

Thank you! The fact that so few people have commented on this behemoth’s busty rider is a testament to the truth of your statement. As for the contest, it seems very interesting but I’m not really familiar with the Ninth Age.

The world has enough people bitching about how the world doesn't conform to feathers and bending over backwards for it. We need more retrosaurs in the world. They are Good Boys.

We don't need "more" hell I'd say there's more retrosaurs/innacurates than accurate dinosaurs

....No, we don't. dA is crawling with dinosaurs covered in eye-searingly brightly colored feathersaurs.

It really isn't. I usually see more dull colors.

In my experience I've heard a bit of bitching from both sides of the "argument". Me, I don't like to take sides I just follow the facts after all paleontology is science not opinion. Still I can not deny the enthralling antediluvian charm that these lumbering reptilian behemoths hold and it was very fun to draw them and look back on the works of the fathers of paleoart for inspiration.

YES YES YES! (Honestly one is more than a little sorry to see this challenge draw to a close, for it has been a delightfully Guilty Pleasure to see insanely un-scientific relics of theories long since cast into the dust roar back with such a Blast from the Past!).

Hey bud, would you like to make a gigantic bipedal predatory retrosaur that is much bigger than your Sarkastosaurus Imperator just for fun? (at least 70 feet long)

Maybe someday but don't expect anything like that anytime soon.
