I refined my stygimoloch sketch last night.
I love making ugly things cute. I think their very ugliness makes them cuter … it stops being “ugly” and becomes “character”.
I was looking for skeletons and skull reference, and ran across this.
Doesn’t it look like a dragon skull? It just needs bigger teeth and a heavier jaw is all!
Also, see the dome on top of the skull? The longer I looked at that silly dome, the more I thought of this.
This is a helmeted guinea fowl. They have one of the more hilarious faces in the poultry world. Anyway, now all I can think of is a dinosaur with a face that color, with the little funky square waddles.
I think that is so great, I can see dinosaurs looking just like a guinea. I have always liked your pictures of dinosaurs. If Dad builds me another larger hen house in the back, I am going to see if I could get a guinea house. I would love to have a flock of those so much.
