A group of visionaries have figured out how to bring nonavian dinosaurs to the present, and have determined the 10 species that make the best pets and domesticated them, with an oversimplified guide to what modern pet/livestock/husbandry animals they resemble most. you have done the work, you're completely prepared, and today, you're bringing your new friend home.
you will be able to take care of the pet and they will become your best friend for the rest of your lives. there are no downsides to any of these pets apart from what is in the brief description.
the pets, with image descriptions indicating which is which and artist credit, with artist links attached:
today on old art i never posted here's some conepts I made like a year or two ago
so like the 2 most fun things to draw are dinosaurs and anime girls so I had a galaxy brain moment and decided to design some dinosaur magical girls (plus evil T-rex villian lady)
so like hear me out so the girls would do magical girl transformations to fight evil dino girls and then it would be like power rangers where after they are defeated once they come back in their dinosaur form and then the girls have a second magical girl transformation where they would turn into their dinosaur forms (and like power rangers there's no reason they don't do this from the start other than just because)
I didn't actually do anything with this concept but like it is a banger concept still
bonus: concept art and more rambling
each girl was designed with a color in mind and i tried to get a variety of dinos (originally the Yi Qi girl was a microraptor hence the 4 wings in her hair but it felt to similar to velociraptor so i went for a different flying dino) velociraptor girl would be protag kun. The last 4 would be like characters who join the group later with the the pachycephalosaurs girl being an anti hero and the Gallimimus and Yutyrannus girl straight up starting as a villians
i wrote like 2 scenes in my head one where Yutyrannus girl betrays and fights evil T rex lady and its a cool tyrannosaur vs tyrannosaur fight and one where velociraptor girl and gallimimus girl talk about something and i ship them for it (so like gallimimus girl is self concious that gallimimus isnt a traditionally like cool dino but raptor girl cheers her up and then gallimimus girl joins the good guys)
also side note that Yutyrannus girl might be one of my best character designs ever lol (I also gave her the most clever name for an OC I've done so like her name would be Yukiko because it starts with a "yu" like Yutyrannus but also yuki = snow and Yutyrannus is accociated with snow)
for the record i forgot what i named the rest
anyway yeah i never did anything with this concept depite how galaxy brain it is lmfao
Yi Qi! Another one of my faves! Pronounced yee-shee
edit: i've been told by a few people that it's actually pronounced "yee-chee", my bad, i've only ever heard it pronounced the other way, thank you for the correction!
Part 4 of my dinosaur alphabet! I'll admit Yi qi for Q is the most questionable of the letters, given that it's the only one picked for species name rather than genus name. Unfortunately, though, the only genera I could find that fit my requirements (maniraptorans extinct before the Eocene) were things described in only 1 or 2 papers and had no pre-existing restorations to reference, so I would've had to make restorations for them whole cloth, and I just didn't have the time for that on this project (though maybe I will some other time?). So Yi qi was moved from Y to Q and I picked a different species for Y. (The other thing I was considering was throwing Quetzalcoatlus in there as a curveball, since it's not even a dinosaur muchtheless a maniraptoran, but that probably would have been a joke only for me.)
