Edit Reason: Fancy tail feathers
)
Can I just start by saying I really worked my butt off on this one?

As a disclaimer I'd like to point out that T.rex probably didn't have an abundance of feathers like this, it is merely the other extreme to dragon scales and crocodile scutes. I might do a Spinosaurus with those next though...
The T.rex is based on Sue, the biggest and most complete T.rex fossil. I added some battle damage to her lip because I didn't want to ruffle her feathers, yet she should have at least one interesting story to tell. The coloring is based on various birds. I didn't want to go over the top with the colouring, but I might go back and add something more to the tail. The palette is random.
Update: Added some colouring to the tail.
As always, C&C would be appreciated.
