Description
“The dilophosaurus crouched on its hind legs by the river, drinking. It was built on the basic carnivore pattern, with a heavy tail, strong hind limbs, and a long neck. Its ten-foot-tall body was spotted yellow and black, like a leopard. But it was the head that held Tim’s attention. Two broad curving crests met in the center, making a V shape above the dinosaur’s head. The crests had red and black stripes, reminiscent of a parrot or toucan. The animal gave a soft hooting cry, like an owl.” (Jurassic Park, Michael Crichton, pg. 142)
"Underneath, the bellies were bright green, like lizards.“ (Jurassic Park, Michael Crichton, pg. 286)
There wasn’t really a reason for this, apart from wanting to be able to sketch again after such a long time of not being able to draw. This took a couple hours, which allowed me to rest my arm often. Definitely don’t expect this to be scientifically accurate, even in terms to how this dinosaur is described in the book(s).

Also on my tumblr here, if you care to see it! Will likely be moved to scraps once I can start drawing more again.
