I was on two digs with the Judith River Dinosaur institue run by Nate Murphy. The first year the team uncovered a new sauropod species. It was amazing. The neck, the jaws, the skull, all there! This is a picture of the dig site. The neck is being worked on and the skull is that blob to the left. The guy watching everything is Nate. I'm the one in the white shirt and tan and black hat.

This is the skull found with the sauropod. The dino was given the name Ralph. Earlier this year, Mr. Murphy gave the new species a scientific name.

And of course, I suppose I gotta post these.

Credit goes out to the original artists, by the way. I mean no harm in borrowing their images, and merely sought to create some fun little educational tools in my spare time for my own personal use.

Gonna start with the smaller files first. Some of the larger ones may need to be taken into Photoshop and de-resolution'd (I know the Titanosaur one did).

Had to divide the Sauropods into like, five different files for how big and how many different types there were.

The oddball group...the Deinocheirus is a guesstimate based on the size of the arms (the only fossils we have of it), and the assumption based on the shape of the arms that it's a giant Ornithomimid.

I feel the need to point out that the Amphicoelias in the previous picture is a more or less hypothetical animal, based on a single vertebra (or was it thigh bone?) identified by E.D. Cope and promptly lost in transit to New York. Given that he was losing horribly to O.C. Marsh in their little bid to unearth the most sensational dinosaurs they could, it's entirely possible he made it up, but it's hard to say.

Also, ick on the giant watermarks in this one. But like I said, these were never meant to be professional or anything, just personal scale references.

A rather non-scientific title for this one, I realize, but there weren't enough of any of these groups to give them their own sections, and they were pretty closely linked, anyway.

You are my new Paleo idol! Nice.

Where'd you get the size data? Some of it seems a bit. . . off. ^__^

SO MANY DINOSAURS!!!!!!!!
>> Nagi
>>45211

I cited as many sources as I could and averaged them together. I'm aware there are a few that are off, which I contribute mostly to the proportions of the artwork (with several, I'd get a proper length at the expense of an incorrect height, or vice versa), and trying to get a length measurement off of art that had the tail all curled up and the neck arched and crap like that (I tried finding images of the animals stretched flat nose to tail where I could, but that doesn't seem to be a popular angle).

The Diplodocids were especially hell for this. I'd get the length spot-on, and suddenly the animal was forty-frickin'-feet tall at the hip. :( And just about all of the Giganotosaurid Carnosaurs have some sort of doctoring done to them to correct some gross tail and head proportion issues that were screwing them up.

And a heads-up to anyone that ever tries to get size dimensions on Pachyrhinosaurus: good luck. Half the places I went to sized it as the second largest Ceratopsian out there, while others claimed it to be dwarfed by Monoclonius. I went with the bigger dimensions on a hunch.

I believe the final tally was 360-something before I stopped (I'd add 2 or 3 new genera every other free night or so...needless to say, it accumulated over time). The master file I made all of these from was starting to kill my computer every time I loaded it from having so many layers in it.

Mind you, I had a list on hand of every known dinosaur genus to date when I was making this thing, and even at 360 I hadn't even gotten halfway through it. :P

BTW, thanks for all the compliments, everyone. They're greatly appreciated.

What you see is all I made. A pretty fair coverage of all the major dinosaur categories, I'd say.

>>45275

The pics generally come from everywhere. I'd either find a nice side-view pic and think "hm, I am short a few Stegosaurs," or I'd think of a species I'd really want to include and go searching for something workable (most of the non-side-view pics are a result of the interwebbertron not having enough good pics of certain species, and me stubbornly refusing to exclude them). A lot of these are fudged, too, I must admit. The Deltadromeus is actually a Utahraptor with its toe claws Photoshopped out, and a lot of the Sauropods are not their intended species ("a generic Titanosaur...I think this could work as an Aegyptosaurus quite nicely"). And that Mapusaurus? I think it was meant to be a Giganotosaurus. I should note, though, that I would only substitute one species for another if I knew beyond reasonable doubt that the artwork matched what I wanted it to be.

Again, thanks everyone for the compliments.
