I've always not been a fan of Jurassic Park for it's dinosaurs. Of course, the raptors and t-rexes are cool, but I always wanted something more realistic. Feathered dinosaurs with lips, basically. This'll be more literature then art, but let's check out our first dinosaur on the tour, the Utahraptor.
Utahraptors are much closer to the raptors in media. Real "raptors" were about the size of chickens, and not exactly scary at a first look. Utahraptors actually are about the size of a human, and have that same blunt snout. While the true amount of feathering on them is not known, personally I think it would've been light, considering where the utahraptor's fossil was first found was a generally dry place in the cretaceous era. Dinosaurs are more birds then we thought, really.
We'll see you soon on part 2 of your *Cretaceous* Park tour. Take a quick rest and- Oh, don't touch the cage bars!
