Jurassic Park-inspired Tyrannosaurus rex studies, BUT colored.

It was a lot of fun to work on, since it's making my sense of dinosaur anatomy and especially coloring. The color of The Lost World's Buck tyrannosaur works really well with an relatively accurate tyrannosaur depiction. This really helped get me out of my recent creative burnout haha

Asiatyrannus xui Zheng et al., 2024 (new genus and species)

(Skull of Asiatyrannus xui, from Zheng et al., 2024)

Meaning of name: Asiatyrannus = Asia tyrant [in Latin]; xui = for Xu Xing [Chinese paleontologist]

Age: Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian)

Where found: Nanxiong Formation, Jiangxi, China

How much is known: Partial skeleton of one individual, including a nearly complete skull, some hindlimb bones, and several tail vertebrae.

Notes: Asiatyrannus was a tyrannosaurid theropod, making it a fairly close relative to Tyrannosaurus. It is the second tyrannosaurid to be named from the Nanxiong Formation, the first being the much larger and longer-snouted Qianzhousaurus. Indeed, Asiatyrannus was small for a tyrannosaurid, estimated as having been 3.5–4 m long in total body length.

Although other supposed "small" tyrannosaurids had previously been named, these turned out to have been based on immature specimens. Based on microscopic examination of its bone structure, the describers of Asiatyrannus suggest that the type specimen had not finished growing when it died, but its growth had slowed down such that it was close to reaching its full size. It is estimated to have been at least 13 years old at the time of its death.

Breaking News! Just when Hispanic Heritage Month is coming to an end, Mexico has just announced the discovery of Labocania aguillonae, a whole new species of Tyrannosaurid theropod hailing from the Campanian La Bocana Roja Formation of Baja California Norte, and the hype to doodle this fantastic beast that happens to be the country’s latest dinosaur is real.

So here is the first illustration of this new Tyrannosaur species ever made!

Red sketch of Yutyrannus huali, a large basal tyrannosauroid from the Early Cretaceous of the Yixian Formation (northeast China). It is the largest described dinosaur with evidence of feathers. Individual filaments on the neck reached up to 20 cm in length (I tried to reflect this fact in the drawing).

Paint, 2024.

Yo, here's some old 🦖s from 2022-2023. They're crooked, but I don't care
