Really as a cartoon or caricature of the aforementioned Dino, it really doesn't have to conform to the actual dinosaur. That's whats great about this stylisation. Total freedom to break the roolz.
In the words of the Finding Nemo xtras DVD.

younglion - I actually hadn't thought of doing cell shading, but this would be great a project to try it out on. I am also looking forward to painting some texture maps for him as I haven't done much texturing or photoshop yet.
hey velociraptor1 - welcome to SM. Cheers for the link mate
yeah, walking with dinosaurs was awesome. It would be so cool to work on a project like that.Started work on the ankylosaurus yesterday...
