Agree with Zoocrazy about the size of eye. Maybe there can be a larger space of bald skin around it? And looks like that teeth alpha hasn't enough definition (this is observed as well in larger theropods). Edited by Elephas Maximus, Nov 21 2013, 08:41 AM.

I can't see anything else, not even the stripes. I guess feathers are hard to put on a raptor while keeping it colored like the WWD one as well, lol. (No offense, here, just saying that it hardly even resembles the WWD one.) Edited by Denomon3144, Nov 21 2013, 09:04 AM.

There'll be no foot-walking! Just air-flying!

Yeah figured that too, gonna make it larger IIRC, and I'm really not sure so he has to correct me when I'm wrong , but I think Ludo once mentioned that green isn't possible for carnivorous birds, as the green pigment comes from vegetation. But honestly I'm not entirely sure The thing I love the most is the texture, it's really really good. I'm not sure if it's actually the green that bothers me, it's more the yellow, it's a bit, IDK, too yellow everywhere. Perhaps some more hue changes could improve it, but I'm not sure really, so it's all up to you Edited by Iben, Nov 21 2013, 09:13 AM.

I have painted every feather manually to make it seem plausible. There are groups of feathers and each of these has their own colouration. So I couldn't do more than source the colours from WWD, simply because the anatomy is so different. I doubt green pigments come from vegetation... Indeed, looks better with less yellow

The turacos on the other hand are brightly coloured birds, usually blue, green or purple. The green colour in turacos comes from turacoverdin, the only true green pigment in birds known to date. Other "greens" in bird colors result from a yellow pigment such as some carotenoid, combined with the prismatic physical structure of the feather itself which scatters the light in a particular way and giving a blue colour. From Turaco's wikipedia page.

So now the pack is getting close to finalising, translators PM me! Edited by HENDRIX, Nov 21 2013, 12:30 PM.

Posts: 7,064 Group: Trainees Member #618 Joined: Jul 16, 2013 Country Canada Sex Male Age 19	About the colouration, why couldn't Velociraptor have been green? The only dinosaurs we know the colours of if I remember correctly are Anchiornis, Microraptor, Archaeopteryx, Sinosauropteryx, and Sinornithosaurus. We really don't know what colour most other dinosaurs were, so designers are free to use their imaginations. Plus the WWD raptor was green, so if the colour was changed then it would probably be too different from its counterpart. BTW glad to hear the pack is almost finished, HENDRIX. Can't wait to use it.
