Hi, Nemoriko

Your model looks good. I like the sculpt.

This latest render looks good, but the texture or the Bump map seems too noisy.

Other than that, Nice work!

Hi - I hate to point this out but I think what you have there is a Pterodactyl, if you compare the back of the head to the ref you'll see what I mean. If you adjust your base mesh and reproject the detail it should be a quick fix.

Hey buddy !!

I don't know what's the matter . . but little confused here :curious:

As I searched about Jurassic park III, there is no Pterodactylus in this movie(according to Wikipedia)

May be this one is missing there. The one which is so similar is Pteranodon and I am working on it. Is Pteranodon and Pterodactylus are same with two different names ?

Absolutely not :-)
Pteranodon is another species of dinosaur. It belongs to the same family of the pterodactylus but is bigger! It is about 3 meters long!

Bye,

No, they're not the same. The Pterodactylus doesn't have that comb/horn on the back of it's head, and is indeed not featured in any of the Jurassic Park movies. Nemoriko is modelling a Pteranodon.


Edit: Just nitpick a bit; I do however believe there's an error in that list you linked, as they mention a Ceratosaurus, which should've been a Carnotaurus. (You know, the one from that horrible scene in Jurassic Park 3 where they're digging the phone out of that pile of poo).
