Redesigning Walking with Dinosaurs | New Blood
The long awaited return to this series. Walking with Dinosaurs is easily the most influential dinosaur documentary, but how well does it hold up?.

Several people have said the postosuchus got wounded in an offscreen hunt so there you go I guess.

Fun fact. They couldn’t afford to animate it! So that’s why it was hidden. The choice of angle where the posto bit into the placereas was all to save money and animation time. It was the most expensive documentary ever made at that point. They didn’t have knowledge, time, science and money on their side xD

Claudius had never seen such bullshit before
I always just thought the female Postosuchus got the tusk mark from a different hunting trip off screen since the episode skips forward through the dry season a couple of weeks
I will say one thing about this series that HAS withstood the test of time; the MUSIC. LOVE i! Also, BEAUTIFUL artwork!
The Quetzal honk killed me lmao 🤣
The changes in Postosuchus's gait are very satisfying. When I first saw "New Blood" I found it's walk to look very clumsy, and I wondered how it could catch prey with a build that reminds one of a stegosaurus. (Still love the show though!)
Next to Jurassic Park, Walking with Dinosaurs is undoubtedly one of the most famous & influential pieces of paleo media there is, regardless of all its inaccuracies, it’s a wonderful series that even 25 years after it aired is still a joy to watch. I’d love to see all the designs redone in accurate ways, & maybe even do this for the spin offs Big Al, Chased by Dinosaurs & Sea Monsters, plus it’s sequel Walking with Beasts, it’s prequel Walking with Monsters, & maybe after those also cover Prehistoric Park & Primeval as well.

I am so inconceivably jealous of your colouring and shading skills mate, that alone earned you an immediate sub. Only critique I have is that something feels off about the foremost leg of the Coelophysis and Postosuchus, and the perspective on the Postosuchus' head doesn't seem to match the rest of it. Otherwise, phenomenal work, and I am truly in awe. Whilst I'm not as attached to WWD as many others, it was still a big part of my childhood, and I'd love to see the series continued. I'd also love to see you do this for Prehistoric Park (which actually was my childhood and the reason I love prehistory), since, IMO, it is one of the top 3-5 greatest bits of paleo-media ever created, and I mourn the fact that it can never be rebooted or continued at least twice a week.

Great work mate and super jelly of your artistic skills 💜 much love
You are one extremely talented dude - thank you for this. Much like you, this was my childhood and I've been desperate to see this series have revised dinosaurs and organisms. Brilliant.

Your art looks so good it looks like it’s popping out of the paper Love this video 🩷
Hey, awesome work! I love how Plateosaurus' head gives off an early saurischian vibe, like it's still halfway between a basal theropod and a basal sauropod. I've never felt that way about this dinosaur on other paleoart but it's so fitting!
Its a good day when icthovynater posts it really is. Keep up the good work
Your art is absolutely incredible. Subbed
The tusk wound that killed the postosuchus happened off screen during the time skip.

Lovely art! Though I disagree with how robust the coelophysis is. Almost as if its limbs could support a creature twice the mass of the ~1 metre tall dinosaur. While If you look at birds the size of coelophysis or larger such as emus and ostriches, their necks and legs are absolute pencils! As for postosuchus, despite the trouble with rendering its neck muah!- chef's kiss! Same goes for plateosaurus! And if you're up for a real challenge I would love to see your interpretation of WWD's leaellynasaura!

Amazing work! I especially loved the Postosuchus drawing, it looked so good, and the Postosuchus v Postosuchus painting was awesome. Walking With Dinosaurs was my childhood, so seeing these was a treat. I think another thing that did not exactly age well for the Postosuchus’ depiction in the series was it slowly idling along considering it probably was a lot faster, especially now that we know it was bipedal it seems very similar to Carnosaurids or Abelisaurids
Love all the redesigns!! Especially the Postosuchus :)
Awesome work!
For those who are wondering and even commented on what if they rebooted this series, I would definitely tell you that they are actually going to do just that for the series and should come out next year. BBC announced it.
