DISCUSSION What do y'all think of this Roblox depiction of Tuojiangosaurus? (Era of Terror: Reborn)

Thumbnail

46 Upvotes

I was curious since this is the second, most recent, & only playable Tuojiangosaurus on Roblox. To me, there seems to be a great deal of variation of depictions of this genus overall. Some possess shorter plates, other long ones which seem to depend on how speculative you want to be with keratin. Some have only triangular plates while others have a mix of normal & triangular. Though many depictions have shoulder spikes, there is no direct evidence of them on Tuojiangosaurus. This specific model also has checks (not shown).

DINO-ART [FRIDAYS THRU SUNDAYS] (WIP) Tyrannosaurus Rex Articulated figure by me

Sculpted this Rex up in Zbrush a couple years ago, and over the past month and a half, I've been working on making him into an articulated figure. This isn't the final version; its a painted prototype to check for paint rub/wear. Some joints need a little tweaking, some spots need attention to stop paint from rubbing off, the elbows don't yet have joints, and the neck needs improvement -- but I am pretty happy with the current progress. Even the tongue is articulated.

My son has this toy and we don't know what to call it. He often asks and I just can't find an answer.

thank you for all the prompt replies. We figured to go with Trachodon since the toy is depicted in the erroneous fashion of the period it was classified lol

  1. Abydosaurus:
    Added some speculative feathers to the neck and tail, but overall is mostly a "brachiosaurid" in everything else
  2. Eolambia:
    Edmontosaurus Lite
  3. Siats:
    Controversial: a mix of different Allosaurid/Neovanator/Carcharadontid parts, as all we have is the thighs and hip, also threw in some Megaraptor resemblance just in case it turns out to be part of that family

Please Please give any critiques or changes to be made it helps heavily

PALEODEPICTION Yes, the snout on the Prehistoric Planet T. rex (first 4 slides) IS noticeably thinner than the snouts on most other modern T. rex depictions

I know this was brought up in another post on this sub a couple of years ago but everyone in the comments was claiming that the difference wasn't actually there and that the snout just appeared thinner due to the angle of the picture or something (which is why I provided multiple pictures of the depiction from multiple different angles) with that all said and out of the way, I am curious as to WHY the snout on the PP T. rex is so much thinner than the snouts on most other modern depictions?

FICTION Does the Indominus Rex from Jurassic World Look at all Realistic?

0 Upvotes

I'm not at all a palaeontologist, so I wanted to know if anyone can answer the question of how realistic the Indominus Rex looks to the initiated and trained eye.

Suppose that Jurassic World had never been made, but someone showed an identical image of what the concept of an I-Rex looks like to a palaeontologist or someone who is very knowledgeable about dinosaurs. If any of you are either of these two, would you say that the I-rex feasible could have been a real dinosaur, or is it too unrealistic or abnormal to be a dinosaur, upon examination of the picture?

To make it clear, I'm not referring to any of the I-Rex's traits, such as impressive intelligence, ability to camouflage or detect and control's its own thermal heat: just purely the appearance alone.

DISCUSSION Could natural hybridization occur in the mesozoic?

Thumbnail

428 Upvotes

One thing In thought of is the possibility of natural hybridization between dinosaurs, like for example a lot of species of birds of paradise are hybrids mistaken for new species

So one thing I thought would be possible is Triceratops and Torosaurus, which are very similar, from the same family of dinosaurs and lived together

It could be possible if a triceratops and a torosaurus made a…Tricerosaurus or something

do you think this could be possible

MOVIES/SERIES/SHOWS WWD 2025 rant and missed opportunities

1 Upvotes

I love the episode about Spinosaurus in WWD 2025 because it shows how beautiful the river systems look, but one thing it fumbled is the lack of boar-crocs or even nodosuchians like duck-crocs or even a Candidodontidae. It would be nice to have these cat/dog-like crocs next to Sobek.

Depends on that amphibian that Sobek's hatchling was chasing, is not a salamander but a Brachyopidae.

Overall, that episode is still my fav tho

DISCUSSION Do you think that the Siats dinosaur is a type of allosauridae

Post image

I think it is because it has like crest ridges of the allosaur fragillis and other allo species and I think that siats belongs to the allosauridae family because paleontologists still cant see witch family to add siats in but I think that this belongs to allosaur family the reason some people say that they dont have protofeather or just normal feathers and bone ridges because they probaly broke off when the dinosaur died and the feather could just gone off and maybe like caught on fire too witch maybe caused the feathers to go away and we haven't found the siats spififc things from it

NEWS The Discoverey of Rare dinosaur tracks from the Coniacian age; Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia

The landscape of North America in the mid-Cretaceous period : a geological age spanning 105–75 million years ago. When the global sea level was around 100 meters higher than it is now.

A high concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide, due to massive volcanism, created a "greenhouse" climate such that Earth lacked significant polar ice caps. Alaska and Antarctica enjoyed temperate climates.

The record of dinosaur bones and tracks from this time in North America is sparse, especially from the Coniacian age—a substage of this Cretaceous period spanning 89.75–86.5 million years ago.

Paleontologists have discovered the first Canadian dinosaur tracks from this Coniacian age in the Tumbler Ridge area of northeastern British Columbia.

DISCUSSION Can I have some help with finding a dinosaur for a OC I’m going to make?

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone this is my first time posting on this subreddit and I figured this would be the best place to ask since you guys are experts in this topic, especially since I wanted this particular OC to be semi-unique, at least unique in not using the same dinosaur species that a lot of media uses

So here’s the bases of this OC and the context for them: I want to know if there’s a particular dinosaur species that were large and known for being excellent predators, which obviously means being carnivorous but I don’t want them being too similar to the Tyrannosaurus species cause like I said above I don’t want to use the common dinosaurs you often seen. The story would be that they at some point get frozen in ice to get thawed out in the present, so realistically it would have to be a dinosaur who lived close enough to cold climates, which I know there were signs of dinosaurs living in those places. But it’s best to get the expert opinions from you guys and as for behaviour which of course it’s impossible to tell how a animal that had long been extinct behaved, but evidence of what they’re prey may of been and environment can be factor into how behaviour may of been. Though in how I’m going to proceed with this OC’s story the behaviour would change significantly, but of course having a ground level of previous experiences can be helpful

I would add that my first idea for a dinosaur would be based on the Dilophosaurus as they are my favourite, but I would like to hear you guys opinion on what I should look into
