That Macro skin is awesomesauce! The Argentino is nice as well, but I'm with the others about the skin suggestion.

Nice job skin, but I agree that it should have more detail

Now that I've gotten a better look at the render I'd say add more texture and detail to the front feet. I think everyone knows that sauropods feet weren't just circles, they had claws on there feet. If you can polish those things off DM, you'll be set to go I'm really excited to see the next animal.

PS: Redownloaded the Coelophysis works perfectly now. :)

Apparently not everybody knows that sauropod front feet were clawless stumps. ;)

Whew, just got back from working on a construction trailer with my uncle. Looong day xD

Well, depending on the quality of the ref and the type / complexity of the animal, the model takes from 5 minutes (lungfish) to 2 hours (argentino/giga). If I got a similiar base model done, it is apparently quicker than modeling from scratch and it saves the rigging.

No offense DM but I'm pretty sure I've seen sauropod with at least one claw on it's foot.

Uhm, no, advanced sauropods including Argentinosaurus didn't have claws on their forefeet, not sure about less advanced ones. Furthermore their forefeet looked like "U" instead of "O", that's something I just noticed to be wrong with the Argentino IIRC.

Most titanosaurs didn't even have finger bones, IIRC.

Umm, like a horseshow? Got some refs?

And the reworked skin:

Pretty sure there's a big debate about whether they had thumb claws or not, though most seem to agree that titanosaurs didn't. I will say that all but perhaps the most basal sauropods have no more than one claw on their forelimbs, the hands being pillar-like to support the massive weight of the beasts.
