An interesting note on depicting dinosaurs based on their skeletal remains. The main point is that real life animals have all sorts of skin flas, fat deposits, etc. Dinosaurs probably looked much different than we depict them. To illustrate the point, the piece contains several pictures of contemporary animals drawn in the same style as we draw prehistoric animals: take the bones, put some muscles on the skeleton, shrink-wrap in skin and we are done.

The animals like baboon, hippo or zebra look really hillarious this way.
