Euoplocephalus

I'm honestly sick of doing Ankylosaurids, but I like how this one turned out.

Colour reference:

In a scene for the Jurassic World Novel I'm writing, there's a scene where an injured Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis (which is a real species, it's just new) and Ankylosaurus magniventris fight. It starts with the Ankylosaurus swinging its club tail, which the Tyrannosaurus (nick named "Boss") dodges. Boss roars at it (with an accurate call) before trying to bite the tail. The Ankylosaurus bellows in agony and frees its tail from Boss and then slams its club into Boss' shoulder, fracturing it and causing his arm to cripple and fall limp. The Boss then roars blood on the Ankylosaurus before tipping it over like a turtle. (And due to this portrayal of the species, the back is flat, aside from the spikes in the sides) The Ankylosaurus squirms and flails before Boss puts his foot full force over the Ankylosaurus' ribs. A loud crunch is heard and the Ankylosaurus immediately dies.

How accurate is this scene?

Also, metrics of the creatures

Ankylosaurus magneventris? Euoplocephalus tutus? (Ankylosaurid)

Specimens Seen: 7 (Cascadia)

Range: United States

Length: 8.1 metres

Mass: 7.6 tonnes

Height (Hips): 2.01 metres

Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis

Specimens Seen: 1 (Cascadia)

Range: United States

Length: 12.1 metres

Mass: 8.8 tonnes

Height (Hips): 3.9 metres

Yes, I used T. mcraeensis. Idc.

Does anybody have any tips on differentiating between, say, Euoplocephalus, Tarchia and Saichania? Thank you!

Hello, and welcome back to me analyzing the creatures of Dino Dan. If you haven’t seen part 1, basically I’m looking at the design of each creature along with any information given in the show and listing any accuracies or inaccuracies, along with some general thoughts on the design removed from accuracy.

Positives = Accuracies

IDK = Can’t find or tell weather that’s accurate/possible or not

Negatives = Inaccuracies

(Creatures in appearance order)

The T.rex was one thing, but this Triceratops design being this wrong is just baffling. I think aesthetic wise, it’s barely saved by the colors, but still, wow

Ahh, much better. I am bothered by the short brow horns, but this Tricera design looks simply majestic. I appreciate the correct legs BTW. Also, while I don’t like the body, the kid Tricera is the only juvenile design that looks notably cute. (Also ironic how Jurassic world had a more accurate juvi tricera, even if barley)

This is mostly the same as the last one, but I think the new colors and rough texture make me prefer it.

While I’m not one for most 2000s Spinosaurus designs, the shades of green with orange stripes are gorgeous enough to (partially) overlook that.

I never really cared for this design, the new texture and recollection removed what I liked about it. Also, it’s really weird to watch 2000s Spino designs swim.

This design is BEAUTIFUL. Hands down one of, if not my favorite Spino design of all time and prolly favorite design of the show. The really long tail and body are lovely, the head is at its finest and I like the m sail shape. I’m unsure if I like it being quadruped or think it’s just fine. I do miss quad Spino for how unique and weirdly cool it was. Only negatives aesthetically would be the colors not being as vibrant as I’d like and the croc skin, but those aside, just fantastic.

This design is fine, great colors aside, don’t really care for it. Accurate Pterodactylus designs are much more interesting.

I can’t tell if this design is bad or I’m indifferent. It’s times like these that remind me why I prefer pycnofibered pterosaur designs, because this looks like a bald vulture. That and the colors are boring now. I do appreciate the updated skull I guess.

This design is decent, I do like how long it is, but not much to not beyond that. The color scheme is interesting, but I don’t know what to think of it.

This one is really pretty, while I wish it were longer and had more of the green on it. The rest does long boi justice. Also, this one of the few Diplodocus in pop culture with a face I like. Shame it and the Corytho redesign are barely in the movie.

My opinions on this one are essentially harsher versions of what I thought about the 1st Triceratops design. Not even the colors save it (yet), despite the frosty red plates looking cool.

While the color scheme is now perfected, the design itself I’m not fond of. Mainly because I prefer the shape of straight backed designs. That and the short neck is weird.

Eew, bad, I wanna leave.

Another big glow-up, I think one’s nice, although the colors throw me off a little.

I was so upset by this as a child and I still am. The Triassic has so many cool interesting creatures, dinosaur or not, and the only creature showcased are these stupid lizard things?! At least 65 has the excuse of the Createous being overplayed! (Even if 65 is much worse in general)

Updated notes: (updates in highlights)

I noticed the running speed pointed in the one of the episodes and reconsidered the alarm call thing

I prolly should have noted the legs on the baby Rex, and after giving it some thought, the skin looks inaccurate compared to paleo art and Prehistoric Planet. I also forgot about the Rex vs Giga episode pointing out T.rex smarts.

Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed and goodbye

Rules 1. No mating (implication is accepted but still weird)

2. Dont be unrealistic

So,whats the inaccuracies in all of them

This took a long time to make because I love making osteoderms (this is sarcastic if you can't tell). I wanted to make Ankylosaurus, but for some reason, I couldn't find a skeletal diagram on Scott Hartmann's website, so I made Euoplocephalus instead.
