Dino Art

["Matthew Troutman" <m_troutman@hotmail.com>]

 I draw a lot of dinosaurs and birds and am quite good at them ( ain't 
much for modesty am I ) and I also take conventional and digital art 
classes and I have a few comments. 

 Best Dino Artist: Greg Paul/ Doug Henderson/ Brian Franczak 
 
 Greg Paul's black and whites are just great and he has distanced 
himself in the B/W category. 
 Doug Henderson's art is the most like real enviroments of all the 
dino-artists. His animals leave a little bit ( just a little bit ) to be 
desired but his landscapes and enviroments are wonderful. His work 
reminds me of an Impressionist.
 Brian Franczak's work is good all around. His animals look like blobs 
sometimes but his painting techniques are great. 

 I haven't put Gurche on this list because his works don't fit into any 
class of work. He is like the Ivan Albright has dino-art; his work is 
too detailed to be considered real.
 
 In Digital Dino Art: ILM 

 Their dinos are real. Does any of you realize how much time and 
patience to do dinos like that using a computer. First make the model, 
then bring it into a 3d paint program, then to a renderer,and then into 
animation and then back and repeat the processes if you want another 
shadow or something. Geez.

 Just my thoughts as an art lover.
