Sweet, I loved dinos as a kid. You should make a big scary T-rex with dripping maw agape.

Awesome job. You could be a childrens book illustrator.

Assuming you did that w/o cheating and using a guide.

Even then, looks good. Any chance on zooming out on the pics to get a sense of size, is that a whole wall?

How long did it take?

What kind of paint did you use?

Did you sketch it first or do it all freehand?

Well thank you!

I did'nt cheat, but I did get ideas for the style of dinosaurs from the internet. Then I drew a small pic of the mural in my sketch book.

Then I sketched it in pencil, freehand from my picture to the wall, yes it's pretty much to whole wall. Sorry that's as far away I could get with the camera!

It took me 2 days of painting it while my 2 yr. old was sleeping! So it probably would have taken me a day...if I could have just done it straight through!

I used latex paint, what we had left over from doing our house, as well as glaze and acrylic paint for tinting.

Hopefully that answers all your questions!

lol! Like I said, I don't want to traumatize my child right from birth, there will be lots of time for that later on!
