Description
~~~Realistic shaded commission done for of his awesome velociraptor character, Eric Patterson, out on patrol!
Augh, I am so happy with this piece! *shakes you by the shoulders* I had such a freaking blast with this guy, from the sketch to the finishing touches! I mean, seriously, a velociraptor in desert camo roaming the desert with a rifle? It doesn't get much more ba than that.
Also, if you're wondering what type of rifle that is, it isn't, because I made it up! 8D Eric here is set in the near future, and Chapter gave me reign to design a different rifle style. I based it mostly off of the M-16, with some AR elements, and I, of course, had to include some elements of the AK, since the AK is the best rifle you could ask for, (and is super for sandy, gritty environments.) Only AK~ <3
I also got to design some anthro-fitting fatigues for him! I made sure to make alterations for his tail, and also made boots for him! ^^ Eric here is actually more plantigrade, so hence why the treads are on the bottom of the actual foot, and not his toes.
I seriously can see this dude and Muzafr in matching camo making some epic battle plans. Freaking desert camo, man.
Thanks a bunch, Chapter! Hope you like it!

Dinosaurs are cool.
Dinosaurs with guns?! Count-me-the-fuck-in!!
Still, this earns a 7/10.
Not enough guns or dinosaurs.

Seriously though, a lizardman army in the 21st Century? If they're anything like the argonians of the elder scrolls series, I'd give my left arm for one retinue.

Personally, I'd be more concerned about Fiji in the universe Eric resides in.

Such is being on the fast track to becoming an international administrative zone.
But seriously, IRL Fiji dispatches more soldiers on peacekeeping duty than Canada does, all while experiencing coups d'état every other year because of chronically-corrupt governments.

Ok then velociraptor soldiers will definetly help then
i didn't even know Fiji sends more soldiers than Canada, and we like to brag about our contributions to peacekeeping >_<

The scary part is that Fiji isn't amongst the top 45 nations that contribute the most soldiers to peacekeeping operations .

There is, of course, this to keep in mind .

Sorry That was a big page, but I see that Canada has had a big number of peacekeepers lost during missions.

In all fairness, a lot of those deaths are the result of poor leadership and badly written rules of engagement, with a healthy dose of politics thrown in for good measure.
In the end, it's to my belief that there is a lot of reform that's needed in this world before we can consider there to be any progress in the modern age.

Yeah nothing's perfect, but hopefully we might learn from our mistakes to prevent history from repeating itself, although that almost never happens. >_<

It's a local! yay! XD
Velociraptors though, can't get anymore badass than that. I don't think I could ever get used to seeing feathers on a velociraptor even if it is anatomically correct. I blame Jurassic Park.

Thanks! And oh man, tell me about it. I'm on the edge of my seat to see what they do for them in Jurassic World...

AWESOME!! This piece came out really, really great! I LOVE how you drew him! He really is quite a badass! Theres literally nothing cooler or more deadly than a armed and camoed velociraptor (except maybe a T-rex one lol). I bet hes EXTREMELY deadly at close quarters combat! You really did an amazing job drawing this!

A *Canadian* Velociraptor. Huh.
Still freaking cool though.

Yeah, I guess. It's just my dinogeek alarms blaring inside my head, that's all.

Haha, yeah, I know what you mean. On that note, it's so rad that there are still old-school dino characters around. XD Makes me curious what they're going to do for the next Jurassic Park movie...

Heh, true, true.
And same here regarding JPW...

That you did.
In-universe, Eric is part of a UN-sanctioned international military unit that was founded in the wake of NATO's dissolution, essentially becoming the military arm of the UN Security Council. Its members wear two badges, so to speak - that of the unit itself, and that of the unit they were recruited out of - and their unofficial motto, "Internationals first, nationals second" is reflected in the arrangement of the flags on their shoulders.
Would you like to know more?
