Ichthyovenator

Dakotaraptor requested by @Jammu&PeanutThedinos

This another original character for my version of Speckles the Tarbosaurus 2. As I've said before, the main antagonist of my version of Speckles 2 is a Saurophaganax named Skal, I've also mentioned how he has teammates, and this here is one of them.

Brisk is an Ichthyovenator Desenfonído, which translates to "Fish Hunter Sharp Blur". His species was named this way due to their incredible speed of 30 miles per hour. He stands at a height of 15 feet tall and is 37 feet long.

Brisk has a long snout, slit pupils, triangle shaped stripes, small scutes on the back of his head and neck, and a prominent crest. In terms of personality, Brisk is somewhat of a daredevil. With him not being scared of taking on bigger prey. He is probably the most arrogant member of Skal's team due to his eagerness to battle with larger dinosaurs.

When it comes to fighting, Brisk uses his teeth and his sharp claws to do the damage, and often leaves opponents with several deep wounds. But he doesn't kill them immediately. He does however, make sure that they leave a blood trail for him so that when he finds them again, he can finish the job. Some would say he loves to play around with his prey because in his mind, they'll taste better.

What do you think?

Based of this challenge

Its head and neck is based of Irritator

Its arms is based of Majungasaurus

Its legs is based of Spinosaurus

Its tail is based of mosasaurus

Its integument are osteoderms

Color and pattern based on the Caiman lizard

What makes a dominant species? The question is incredibly broad, so to help us all out, here are some rules:

-The species must have been on top of its food chain

-The species must have lived the longest, compared to its relatives

In addition, if these specifications were not enough, the comparison of ammunition should also be considered; which animal had the most deadly claws, or other features.

I remember doing a presentation in high school on which spinosaurid was the most dominant in its geological timeframe. I compared information gathered on wikipedia between the species. Which one had the least competition, had the most, carnivorously dominant traits, and duration of the species existence.

My final, unbiased, answer, was Oxalaia, a long time ago.

I was really young at the time, I have not educated myself on the recent evidence regarding this family of prehistoric reptiles, may someone inform me about my, most likely incorrect, analysis, and how off I was at the time?

Edit: I used the Angaturama Holotype, it should be SMNS 58022 for Irritator not USP GP/2T-5

If you want the sizes, I gotchu

Spinosaurus aegyptiacus-14.5 Meters, 8.35 Tonnes

Suchomimus tenerensis-12.14 Meters, 5.4 Tonnes

Siggilmassasaurus brevicolis-11.7 Meters, 4.7 Tonnes

Riparovenator milnerae-10.54 Meters, 3.32 Tonnes

Oxalaia quilombensis-10.3 Meters, 3.32 Tonnes

Baryonyx walkeri-8.5 Meters,1.7-2.5 Tonnes

Ichthyovenator laosensis-8.5 Meters, 2.2 Tonnes

Irritator challlengeri-5.6? Meters, 1 Tonne

And no shitty tooth taxons are allowed here(Yeah may seem hypocritical to say that while adding Oxalaia and Siggilmassasaurus but Siggilmassasaurus is a cooler name than Spinosaurus and I wanted to use a quad Spino somehow)

All these drawings are based on these wonderful skeletals

I repainted the Roar Attack Ichthyovenator. Two day process. The original is on the left and repaint is on the right. How (speculatively) accurate are each's colors and any notes if I were to redo it?

Ok so I wasn't expecting to make another post so quickly after the Ichthyovenator repaint post, but that one went well and some wanted to see more of my work. So here's my other repaints (that I have currently):

Proceratosaurus - the OG (and my OG Proc [who's claws I painted to test it out before repainting other boi]) is on the left and repaint on the right. This is my first repaint done in 2021 and I didn't quite know what I was doing back then.

Gallimimus - it took a while for me to do another repaint - this one done in late 2022 - but here it is. More realistic coloring than the OG (left) (repaint right). Unlike the Procerato, I knew what I was looking for in this thing's pattern and managed to get what I wanted.

Ichthyovenator - this is the guy who's post went better than I thought. On the left is the original, right is the repaint. I based its pattern on an image I saw on google and found it very appealing, and realistic. The blue/white on the head was difficult since Mattel's model doesn't have a crest, but I improvised and find I did good.

Kosmoceratops - I've got three of these, two repainted. OG on the left, other two are repainted. The middle one is based on Dino Dan's Kosmo, right is just a color I came up with. The horns were the hardest to paint because of their size and closeness to the skin.

Species I have yet to repaint, but are ready to, are:

Dsungaripterus

Atrociraptor

Moros intrepidus

Therizinosaurus

Tyrannosaurus rex

Giganotosaurus

*Something I forgot to say, although they're primed and painted, all of their joints and action features still work. The Ichthyo is Roar Attack and it still roars.
