Artist's Comment

A friend of mine recently commented that humans and dinosaurs could never have coexisted, because we would never have survived in such a savage environment. But despite the fact that people are always dino-fodder in films, I think ancient man could have held his own. This is how I imagine a pre-Flood civilization would take down an Allosaurus.

The shading is indeed very good! I also like the out-of-focus of the background very much. It emphasizes the dinosaur in the foreground.

Steve: I went to the site you listed and found it laughable at best. There are transitional fossils what there is not is a fossil of modern man amidst all them bones them carbon dated bones. My favorite line in that site is "Dinasaurs being too big to fit on the Ark".
Mr.Mayer: I'm giving you a 5 for shading. The rope and block and tackle- hey anything goes in one's imagination.

This is awesome! I love how the background is lit but the foreground is in the shadows. Brilliant.
