Draw Me Your Favourite Dinosaur!
25 posts
Ever wondered what dinosaur your favourite rock & metal band or musician loves? No!? I have... In this blog you'll find a collection of illustrations from musicians, artists and other all round awesome folk from the world of music who have sent me a drawing of their favourite dinosaur. The idea began a few years ago when i started asking bands to send me a sketches of their favourite dinosaurs in the additional comments section of their web stores. Since then i've had all sorts of pictures sent to me through the post or to my email inbox. Some have been really detailed, beautiful pieces of art; some have been hilariously crude doodles. All have been awesome. My eventual goal is to organise all the images I have received (and still currently receiving) and turn them into a book that I can sell with the profits going to the Make A Wish Foundation (http://www.make-a-wish.org.uk/) . I'm a long way from that yet so any help to reach my goal is appreciated; if you are in a touring metal band, or know someone who is in one please tell them to get in touch with me! I would be happy to add your dino to my growing collection of images! For now though, take a look at what's been sent to me so far, I hope you enjoy your stay. Dan Contact: [email protected]

Sam Says: “I chose the underpants wearing dinosaur as he likes to have a good time but knows that he should also keep his dignity in public areas as not to be arrested again.”

After discussions with various musicians involved in this project and a fair amount of deliberation we’re pleased to announce that proceeds from our forthcoming book will be donated to the Make A Wish Foundation: http://www.make-a-wish.org.uk/ Whilst we are aware that the book may be a long way from completion we hope in the meantime you will find out more about this great charity and the amazing opportunities it provides for children with life threatening illnesses. Please help us by passing the word on about our project, let your favourite metal bands and musicians know about what we are trying to do and hopefully one day soon you might find their dinosaurs included amongst the already fantastic gallery of dino’s we’ve collected so far! -DMYFD

Tuojiangosaurus courtesy of Christopher Bowes from AleStorm/Gloryhammer
Chris Says: "This is a Tuojiangosaurus called Henry. He is really cool and he is from China. He's like a Stegosaurus but EVEN BETTER because he's got these rad spikes on his back instead of stupid armour plates, and he's from China instead of somewhere crappy like Montana. The only downside about this guy is, he KNOWS he's so damn cool, so he just minces around the plains of the Late Jurassic with this smug look on his face (I think I managed to capture his smugness with my drawing). If I could resurrect any dinosaur from the past, it would be this guy...except I'd probably tell him to rein in the attitude and be more modest. Chicks dig modest dinosaurs."

Utahraptor courtesy of Mike Barber from Prostitute Disfigurement / Fever Sea / Nexus Inferis
Mike Says: "The Utahraptor was always my favourite dinosaur after finding out that Velociraptors were actually small and pretty lame. The Utahraptor was about 5 times bigger, so clearly 5 times cooler"

DISosaurus courtesy of Kim Reumann from Divided In Spheres
Kim Says: "I don’t know much about dinosaurs, so i decided to get some inspiration via Google Search and create my own dinosaur. I call him DISosaurs (Divided in Spheres – o – saurus). His body would look like a little dragon, he can fly and he is a carnivore. Plus who knows, perhaps he might have been the first drummer on earth?!"

Dilophosaurus courtesy of Rick Stikkelorum - Professional artist / musician in Ecocide
Rick Says: “I choose the dilophosaurus. When I was a kid I had tons of jurrasic park action figures. my favorite was the dilophosaurus. The dilophosaurus from JP was a vomiting toxic bastard. I remember me using this plastic version of the dinosaur to scare the hell out of stupid girls at school. I was really convinced that they found it horrifying. I felt really evil back then”

Velociraptor courtesy of Joaquin Ardiles from The Safety Fire
Joaquin Says: “My favourite dinosaur is the velociraptor, I remember watching Jurassic park as a kid and thinking, those guys are badass, I bet they got mad skillz on the football pitch, they look like they could probably do like 1000 kick ups easy. My love for dinosaurs is only surpassed by my love for football. they go hand in hand, like a good wine and some fine ass titties.
 The velociraptor, nearly as good as Lionel Messi, but extinct.”

Mega-party o Saw us courtesy of Christopher Clark from Xerath
Chris Says: “The mega-party o saw us is one of a series of ultimate dinosaurs. His majesty and functionality are his main attributes, always ready and prepared. The inspiration for this dinosaur was a result of trying to quantify the raddest dinosaurs in existence with a modern cutting edge twist. I know if I saw a mega-party O saw us I would definitely be all like ' no way, omg'.”

Pteranodon courtesy of Carlos Lozano from Persefone
**Editors Note - Persefone's album "Spiritual Migration" was by a long way my favourite album of 2013, it's got a little something for everyone so i SERIOUSLY recommend you go out and buy the record.
Carlos Says: “I decided to go with the "Pteranodon" because it was a favourite of mine during my childhood. I remember drawing some of them over my school books back then and years later, being disappointed when there wasn't any playable character as a "Pteranodon" in "Primal Rage"!!”
