Allosaurus: Jaws of Death !

        I've decided to show the details of the Allosaurus head , I find that to be the most difficult to get right. I'm hoping that will help me get it right. And in paleoart there is a special need to get the details as right as possible. So , Allosaurus had a large skull equipped with razor-like teeth for slashing huge chunkfuls of flesh.  Not something you'd want coming at you in a dark alley. If there had been alleys in the late Jurassic. I think the next Allosaurus will have his jaws open for maximum scare factor. 

     He starts out looking sort of sweet. like a baby, almost.

    Then less babyish and more tiny terror.

   He begins even more to look like the major predator that he was, there's speculation that he fed on Stegasaurus , which must have been a challenge. 

   At this point the wet work is over and it's all about taking away clay to add detail, and adding cross-hatching to simulate skin.

Tomorrow, CLAWS OF CALAMITY ! No.. Toes of TERROR ! No... FEET OF FURY !! YES !
