Very nice indeed. That's a nice looking Dimorphodon you have in there too. :P I also sense that you might have had a taste for yellow, white and black at the time XD
Love the vivid colors and motion in this! Stunning work!
Did they find swim tracks somewhere? :O *out of the loop, but interested!*
They have found quite a few swimming tracks over the years. The paleontologists I work with study the Johnson Farm track site, which records a whole Jurassic lake side ecosystem. Swim tracks look like long, raking lines as the animal floats near the surface and paddles with it's legs - leaving claw marks that eventually disappear as the water gets deeper.
I will always adore the smooth, clean simplicity of your dinosaur art.
I've seen a few of the example. I quite like your rendition best by far though.
Your work really inspires me. I just HAVE to draw dinosaurs in the near future!!!!!
I love how saturated the colors on this one are. c: beautiful job.
My oldest son says: "thats pretty cool mom."
My youngest son says: "wow thats a dinosaur!"
My daughter says: "thats a pretty big dinosaur in water and its running and its cool."
Yeahhhh

Okay, those are absolutely adorable.
But then, I tend to think things that look "bitey" are cuter than things that just look "eatable."

you learn something new every day. I knew dinos swam, but i didn't know they left tracks in the process.
