You'd have to be pretty fearless to walk among this bloodthirsty group...

well, maybe not.

blood thirsty? surrrre they are, cleveland. surrre they are. ")))

these are a really great bunch of characters and nice color/texture/shapes use. fun! ")

Jason James Curtis said...

Why am I always late to the party?

Anyway, I'm loving these guys. What great characters they'd be for a children's book. My favorite is the green T-Rex.

They all look friendly enough, but maybe that's just their way of drawing me in close...then they'd eat me.

Never trust a dino, no matter how inviting their smile might be.

FHNavarro said...

Great characters!! I love the lines and colors.

Cheers!!

Tomás Serrano said...

Great colors and, yes, the little red tyranosaurus is fantastic.

Cheryl Lynn said...

This is fantabulous. But while their size is intimidating, except for the little guy, of course, they look a little too friend to instill much fear...I don't know...

Brilliant work as per ususal. The colors are magnificent and the detail is astounding.

YOU ROCK, DUDE!

lincoln said...

Hi Michael!

What makes this piece so compelling are the shapes and negative space. To be sure the characters have wonderful expression and appeal, but your overall sense of design and color elevate this far above an exercise!

Love it!
