Giganotosaurus Carolinii

Giganotosaurus the second largest known predator ever walked the earth. It was slightly larger than Tyrannosaurus. (13m in length with a skull of 170-195cm) it might had the longest dinosaur skull but in total length it was smaller than Spinosaurus.

Giganotosaurus may have preyed on the truly gigantic Argentinosaurus. (in packs of course) [link]

Soon when I finish the other two models I will upload a series of size comparition based on Greg Paul and Scot Hartman skeletal drawings.

My 3D model is based on Greg Paul skeletal drawing.
first I created the entire fossil in Maya then modeled that body over it, used Headus UV layout for UV mapping, Zbrush for details, displacement and normal maps, Mudbox for texturing and finally got him back to Maya for some Vray\Mray scenes. and ofcourse some Photoshop for texturing and post work.

Now I will try to improve the rig and SSS shader, and hopefuly more other dinosaurs to finish.
