My take on Nanotyrannus.
It’s been a while since I’ve drawn something „just because“.
Nanotyrannus is real and here is my view.
I am not completely satisfied with how it turned out but I’m happy to be back with some own artwork again :)

The reason to go into 3D modelling cannot be more different than between Astrid O'Connor, Rick Stikkelorum, and Nova Studios.

Astrid O'Connor is a master of bringing extinct creatures back to life — reconstructing full skeletons of ancient Aussie animals and turning them into stunning 3D animations. 🌍✨
We couldn’t create our special exhibition on 3D models without their incredible palaeoartistry — and their attendance!
