 Pretty cool green Jurassic Park raptor hehePosted by: Duke64« on: August 27, 2015, 11:54:36 PM »Good information there. Well Matt you were a very skilled artist, the drawing is still amazing its a bit more on the vicious side and if you search scary raptor on google you will see Jurassic Park Raptor and Turok Evolution raptor.
Clever Girl  I cant take a quick enough screen of when he reaches out with claws and attacks it happens to fast hehe but the resemblance is there pretty cool knowing. That scene is one of the best there, that nose you see in the picture wont be there for long don't worry.  I decided to take the nose out and enhance a bit I did really fast but I couldn't get a shot without it   Made this one for fun to  Posted by: Dinomite« on: August 27, 2015, 04:42:18 PM »The cover art (as well as the bulk of Turok art) was created by Matt Stubbington. Matt was one of the founders of Iguana and a spectacular artist. Sadly he passed away three years ago from a hereditary disease.Rest in peace man. Intresting facts. My condolences. 39 years is a young age to die... Posted by: Rok« on: August 27, 2015, 04:01:25 PM »That is very interesting info and very specific also. Must be the real Acclaim
 Sorry to hear of the loss it effects us all :/ but to me it makes this art even more legendary. I am a huge fan of art and I must say the very best raptors to this day are Turok Evolutions and Jurrasic Parks raptors. There isn't any others that even come close besides Turok 1 and 2 raptors.Thanks for sharing that to! and welcome Posted by: Acclaim« on: August 27, 2015, 01:08:45 PM »The cover art (as well as the bulk of Turok art) was created by Matt Stubbington.

I had asked Matt to create a piece of art for promo use that was evocative of the scene in Jurassic Park where the alpha velociraptor ambushes gamekeeper Robert Muldoon. The idea was a dense rainy forest scene with just hints of the rex in shadow. glowing eyes, glint of teeth, etc... It was a tough concept to pull off as a static image and just when we were going to give up on the idea Matt came up with that. It was never intended to be the package but was just such a kick ass piece of art it was only natural that we used it. |
