Struthiomimus (=ostrich-like dino) hiding from T-Rex

Poor T-Rex, can't find them.I need to add to the ground, the shadows, maybe, but the idea is that the ostrichosaurs hide their heads in the sand, and that actually works to keep the T-Rex from seeing them. Poor guy can't scratch his head without an arm extender.

If this were a movie, I'd be covering my eyes. The technique is awesome, though.

Very well done. Such great line work.

This is EXPONENTIALLY better than I thought when I originally heard the concept. Bravo!

If only hiding were so easy.

maybe hiding WAS this easy!

It's possible that the T-Rex had patterns it recognized as prey, and if something didn't match, it didn't attack.

Of course, it wouldn't have taken long for the pattern of head-in-sand ostrichosaur to become = DINNER!

more likely is scent, I know.

heh. Thanks, Skek. I'm glad to hear that it doesn't suck as bad as you thought it would! ;^)

I do appreciate it, in all seriousness.

I meant that I expected it to be good, but this is better than most professional graphics in textbooks! Should have clarified :)
