Here's the new Centrosaurus next to the 2018 original. The original accidentally used a subadult specimen as a basis for the older scarred male, something happily corrected in the glow up.

A more intense day today, as a pair of male Centrosaurus get into a fight, the flock of enantiornithines atop the younger male's back scattering.

Today gives us a Deinonychus cleaning off its' talons after a particularly messy feeding. The original piece used a lot of inspiration from birds of prey, and hopefully that's even more apparent now.

Today the legendary, and equally controversial, Spinosaurus patrols the waterways, punting along the bottom of a shallower river. Hopefully a nice intermediate between wading and swimming.

Today we have a true colossus; an utterly enormous Barosaurus. Whether it is truly 50 metres long or not is up to you, but either way the pterosaurs around it look as small as insects.

Two thirds of the way now, and today we mark that with a young adult Psittacosaurus tending to some unruly babies. The older animal is not the parent, but a babysitting older sibling.
