A JP-styled Psittacosaurus I did for fun. Ultimately, I think it looks better and more distinct with the quills even if they were only described after the first trilogy had wrapped (from what I can tell).

Sharing some WIP sketches since I haven't posted new art in a while

More babies

I'd been meaning to post more art here and it totally slipped my mind for a bit there.

But, with Jurassic World Evolution 3 coming out soon (including a host of baby dinos & other animals) I figured I'd share more of the hypothetical baby JP/JW animal designs I did a while back.

I guess not a notch the same way spinosaurs have it, but a lot of ceratopsians have some “crook” in their upper beak.

It has that same sort of sneering shape as the tip of the JP Spino’s snout, especially when people exaggerate the keratin, so it was a good jumping-off point.

Going off the Spinoraptors I posted recently, here's the sketch sheet that design arose from. This was done following Jurassic World Evolution 2 releasing their hybrid-centric DLC.

Sharing some Spinoraptor color schemes while I'm working on other stuff.

And, if anybody wanted this to be a bit more overtly hybridized or amalgamated, I do have these two from a while back that really lean into the crocodile angle:

I went a bit less “reject” with this one, but still kept the broad strokes (short neck, more accurate, gnarly look). I borrowed a lot from the textures of JP3’s Spino while still retaining some croc and made the skull more like Spinosaurus to highlight its distinctive look.

Here's my take on the Rebirth Spinosaurus!

I feel I've seen equal parts love and disdain for these guys, and frankly I'm with the latter. I don't love what I've seen so far, and being early attempts/more "modern" does not carry the design for me. Still much prefer JP3's.

I made this partly for the joke and partly because I don’t have strong feelings towards it. Looks OK from what we’ve seen (if not absolutely colossal omg), but we haven’t seen much so I mostly went off merch. Not the best to work from, but it’s what I have.
February 28, 2025 at 3:44 PM
Did I make this solely because the Rebirth Mosasaur looks a little “portly” in the merch?

Yes, yes I did.

I pulled a lot from different hornbill species to give it something similar to the "nose spike" in the trailer and serrations on the beak as in toucans to help with tearing flesh from anything too big to swallow. A bit of 90's Quetz skull made it in as well.

Next up it's the Quetzalcoatlus.

I've seen people say the Dominion look was perfectly fine and could've been used here again, and I generally agree with that. Though if they want to lean into the "wrong/unfinished" angle, I think some flashier head ornamentation might be nice.

These aren't meant as "I fixed it for you", just a way to share my thoughts & do some drawings (these will get colored later btw).

I mainly wanted to bulk up the neck per an earlier reconstruction of Isisaurus/Titanosaurus colberti that I like, but also ground the fins it has.

I haven't talked much about Rebirth, but atm I'm not loving it. The series "reset" is odd and I don't love the creature designs on the whole. As someone immersed in the designs of this franchise, I feel that carries some weight and I wanted to share my takes on the new dinos.
February 9, 2025 at 8:02 PM
This one took some time to get "just right" and I'd already made a couple previous attempts that I wasn't totally satisfied with.

Wanted to go for an older look where the skull was a bit taller than in most modern depictions. JP dinos aren't usually so spiky, but it's fine.

Allosaurs are formidable predators on their own, but are even more capable in pairs or occasional groups of 3. Records of a poacher who shot an Allosaur but failed to down it paint a grim picture of his final hours.

This is the last (for now) of a series from last year. Posting the rest soon!

It’s my birthday today!

My resolution for this year is to do more with my art and to push myself to improve. I’m very excited!

Here’s an old drawing of mine with someone getting the Prosaurolophus they wanted for Christmas.

Happy Holidays everyone! ❄️

These are based on some skins from my old JWE1 Raptor mod that I really liked but was too lazy to add myself. As a result, I guess I now have raptor OCs. Enjoy some super rough color ref sheets.

I recently commissioned @gamevideosforlife.bsky.social to make some JWE2 Velociraptor cosmetics for me and they turned out amazing!

If you want to use these in your own parks, I'll include the Nexus link below.
