Description
People often tell me that T.rex is heavily overrepresented relative to other equally interesting dinosaurs in all forms of art, including skeletal diagrams. They're not wrong, and I did not intend to make another T.rex after Scotty and Wankel, but it might be said that the money thought otherwise. Working with the most complete and most well-illustrated individual giant theropod does teach you some new things, so we'll see what that means for the two previous skeletals.

Update 03/30/2020: Work on other views requested by the commissioner showed me some things were wrong, namely the length of posterior ribs, positioning of the shoulders, and a remake of the skull was needed.

I would like to confirm something with you: May I ask what measurement method was used for the 132cm femur length you used in the picture?
