Description
Assignment from my Portfolio class. I had to recreate a illustration in my field of work that was poorly illustrated, figure out the reasons why it doesn't work, then make my own version that works. I found a portrait illustration online trying to demonstrate a male and female velociraptor and it had a lot of issues anatomically and visually. So here's mine, instead of a portrait I made a full scene to demonstrate a male and female. I made the female raptor brooding while the male stands by. I also made the female more earth tones, while the male more vibrant and showy for display. I was really inspired by the hoatzin bird and roadrunners. This was a really fun assignment, I always enjoy drawing velociraptors.My site: rushelle.com/

esta muy bien elaborada,representas de manera muy realista lo que eran pero con un modo creativo,sofisticado y muy interesante, usaste muchos colores oscuros y esto es lo que lo hace poco menos atractivo.
creo que deberías usar colores mas llamativos,utilizaste buena técnica para representar las plumas creo que te tardaste mucho en su elaboración por las formas y las texturas.
pienso que en el momento de la elaboración te sentiste algo triste y angustiado yo así lo digo por las texturas y por las posiciones de los velociraptores también por las posiciones de los objetos en lo que resta del cuadro.
MUY BIEN ELABORADA CON PROPORCIÓN, PERO SOBRE TODO UN BUEN TRABAJO.

They're brooding, like chickens or other modern day avians. They're keeping the eggs warm and protecting them.

I love this...reminds me of my raptor character Iara on her nest in the evenings More artwork needs to be made to portray dinosaurs at rest...

Wonderful job! The feathers and the design of the creature themselves really sell that "bird of prey" look.

Lovely behavioural scene for these dinosaurs, it looks very natural. And of course raptors are amazing, these look beautiful!

This is really neat. Watch out for the metatarsal length though, velociraptorine dromaeosaurs have very short metatarsals.

Thanks! I'll be sure to watch that in my future raptors.
