MemberAllosaurusAug-18-2015 3:58 PMNow, I decided to make a new competition (probably) never seen on this forum!!! :D
The contest is-
Create A Custom Dinosaur/Pterosaur/Marine Reptile!
So, with that said, I shall go over the rules-
1. Create a realistic dinosaur/pterosaur/marine reptile.
2. Give it a fitting Greek/Latin name with a translation.
3. Provide a detailed description that includes size, appearence, diet, where it lived, and when it lived.
Deadline is one week from now. Entries will be judged the day after.
Drawings are accepted but not required.
BEGIN!

Smiloraptor atrox
English translation: Frightening knifed robber
Length: 12-15 feet
Height: 5-6 feet
Weight: 220-300 lbs
If there was any dromaeosaur that most closely resembled the Velociraptors from the Jurassic Park, it is this monster. Smiloraptor was an incredibly fast, agile animal and a ferocious hunter, capable of reaching speeds of 40 miles an hour and jumping 15 feet straight up in the air. It is most closely related to Deinonychius antirrhopus, as they both had a common ancestor that originated in Asia. They also lived in the same time period (approximately 110 million years ago). But while Deinonychus lived in North America, Smiloraptor spread in the opposite direction into western Asia and across middle Europe.
These raptors were very noisy animals, using a variety of calls complex enough to be considered a structured “language”, very much like the Velociraptors depicted in Jurassic Park 3. They ranged from low growls and hisses to loud barks and yelps to horrifying screams. Calls were heard from an estimated 2 miles away.
They were pack hunters with a family life very similar to wolves, where a breeding pair headed a group of sub-adult, juvenile, and infant offspring. Smiloraptors were very caring guardians, where the older siblings helped care for the younger packmates as much as the mother and father did. They viciously protected their young and pack from outsiders, so much so that intruding raptors were sometimes killed to present a message to other intruders to stay away. Once an individual reached 3 years old, they were old enough to leave the pack to seek out a new territory and eventually a mate.
What makes these dromaeosaurs so different from their relatives were their 5th teeth on the upper jaw, which grew up to 3 inches long and were serrated. While not as massive as those of any of the 3 species of Smilodon (the sabre-toothed cat), they did grow back quickly, so if a sabre was lost, it didn’t impede the raptor’s chances of bringing down prey. Coupled with a heavily muscled neck (for a dromaeosaur), detachable jaws, and the typical dromaeosaur traits of long forelimbs and switch-blade talons on the 2nd toe, this is one dinosaur you don’t want to even get close to.

Astrapestoraptor Atrox
Frightening Lightning Thief
Species : Giganotosaurid
Lenght : 45 ft long
height : 18 feet
Weight : 3,8 ton
Time And Place : South America, 100-65 MYA
DESCRIPTION :
this is the largest Giganotosaurid Species, and one of the most lightweight, it has big head with 60 bone-crushing teeth and strong bite force that measures up to 6000 Kg. the dino have big eye with a tearline, makes it hunt at day and night, one of the largest and the most loyal of all theropods, it can stay with it's partners for a life time, and have a complex languages just like dolphins. this animal have a hard flat head that males use for a fight at territory or mate. it usually reach maturity at around 2 years, faster than other theropods, and the females give birth, not laying eggs, the pregnant time of Astrapestoraptor was about 8 months, which is fast because of the diet.
MOVEMENT :
Astrapestoraptor walked bipedal, but can also walk on 4 limbs, just at relaxed time, this animal had top speed at around 65 mph, thanks to a spine that like cheetah, stores massive energy and let it go fast.
HUNTING BEHAVIOUR :
Astrapestoraptor hunt solitary, it was an ambush predator, but equipped with large stamina, able to run at 55 mph within 2 hours, it uses its big arm to grab and hold on to its large prey, like Dreadnoghtus and Argentinosaurus. and use its head for finishing, normally around the skull, not throat. it specialized on big sauropod but also small prey and even cannibalized.
IF YOU SEE ONE, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE !!!

MemberAllosaurusAug-19-2015 2:40 PMType: Dinosaur
Species: Tyrannosauridae
Name: Nequit Dominum
Said: Neh-Qee-ta Domm-inn-uhm
Meaning: Unstoppable Lord (Latin)
How did it come about?: A genetic mutation due to un-orthodox mating between a female Tyrannosaurus Rex and a male Spinosaurus who wondered towards North America.
Number of?: 1
Cause of Extinction: Grueling battle between a united Alpha Tyrannosaurus Rex and Alpha Spinosaurus.
A close reletive of the infamous Tyrannosaurus Rex; Nequit Dominum was rougly 20 ft tall, slightly larger then that of Tyrannosaurus Rex.
What made Nequit so powerful was his unstoppable speed; being able to run at an unstoppable speed of 40 mph for incredibly long duration's of time. That plus it's bite force of 18,000 pound's, still not quite Tyrannosaurus, but immensely powerful.
He also boasted long unstoppable arms with four fingers, and jagged claws. He was immensely durable, an unstoppable lord like his name he could tank anything; if his bones were to break however, his body regenerates the damage extremely fast, how did this demon come about?
He was definitley a Tyrant to his land which resided in what is modern day Saudi Arabia and ended in KT North America; he terrorized the like's of Tarbosaurus and preyed upon Titanosaurs. He was truly an unstoppable lord.
Good grief.

MemberTriceratopsAug-25-2015 11:46 AMName: Spinophoraptor (Spine off o raptor)
Means: Speedy Spined Lizard
Species: Osmolskae
Length: 20 feet long
Height: 19 feet tall
Weight: 7 tons
Time: Cretaceous Period
Place: Tokyo, Japan
Diet: Fish and Medium sized prey.
DESCRIPTION:
Spinophoraptor had a reptile like skin with stripy patterns. It had sharp claws of a Dilophosaurus, jaw and teeth of a Spinosaurus and toe claws of a Velociraptor. It hunts for fish and medium sized prey. It hides in the foliage and watches it prey for the right time to strike. When the prey is running from the Spinophoraptor and thinks it's safe, the Spinophoraptor strikes with speed. Sinking it's middle toe claw into the back of it's prey, pinning it down and hitting it with it's claws. The Spinophoraptor now has killed it's prey and has a meal.

MemberCompsognathusAug-25-2015 10:53 PM@ Elite Raptor 007 - "the females give birth, not laying eggs" … Dinos are all reptiles, so I guess all of them only lay eggs. I've never heard or read of Dinos giving birth to live young, at least not yet.

@ALLOTITAN - That's an interesting picture of your's, draw an Allosaur with feathers, and BTW, welcome back.

MemberCompsognathusAug-27-2015 5:34 AMOh yeah, almost forget -
@VIRTUALVEL - your dino's are good but maybe too heavy, your dino's are just about 20 feet-that's mean it's only 6 meter and height about 5 meter, but 16 ton ??? its more suitable for a 50 foot long (15 meters) dino than 20 foot long, it's too heavy for a dino that size, it should be about 4-6 ton, that's more suitable.
@SCI-FI KING25 - can we make 2 dino cause i wanna post another one.

MemberCompsognathusAug-28-2015 5:36 AM2nd Dinosaur :
Spinonychivenator Horridus
Horrid spined-claw hunter
Species : Spinosaurid
Lenght : 40 Ft
Height :25 ft to the spine
Weight : 10 ton
Time and Place : South America 125-80 MYA
Description :
Spinonychivenator is the 2nd largest spinosaur of all time, it like a typical spinosaurid, its soaring spine is only half of the one found in spinosaur and it can be lower down, just like those of frilled lizard. it has a snout with a more meat slicing teeth than fish-grabbing tooth, it has the iconic 12 inch long claw on it's arm, making one from Notronychus look like fingernail. it ha long tail and meat slicing foot claw. and a really sparkling head crest, that male used for propaganda around mating season.
Movement :
Spinonychivenator walked on 4 leg, but the big armed tucked back, so it walked on knuckles. the top speed is around 50 mph.
Hunting Behaviour :
Spinonychivenator hunt by chasing with 2 leg, it ambushed it prey like amargasaurus. than it chased it down and use it's oversized claw for sink it into prey, caused the puncture of internal organ, prey died by blood lost.
Extinction Cause :
but the cause of extinction, is the other predator that ruled, Astrapestoraptor. even thoughjt it survived for up to 80 MYA, the new predator is mostly taken the spinosaurus prey right after. and raid every eggs they find, but... spinonychivenator not hesitated to attack young, juvenniles and even pregnant female Astrapestoraptor. but eventualy, the superioryty of Astrapestoraptor lead to Spinonychivenator extinction.
my 2nd Dino. Hope you guys like it.

MemberCompsognathusSep-01-2015 3:59 AM@Alphadino65 - Smilodon (lat. smile- „chisel“ und odus „tooth“) means chisel-tooth. Smiloraptor atrox means frightening chisel-thief. Knife/knifed is culter/cultro … Cultroraptor Atrox would be right.
@Gorillagodzilla - Nequit is the conjugation of nequeo, that stands for I can't or i am unable to! Nequit Dominum means I can't be a lord! The Word you are searching for is either Effreno Dominus or Indomitus Dominus! :P
