well, somebody finally did it; for the first time in history, the color of a dinosaur is known with a certain level of confidence; this is a redering of sinosauropteryx prima, as based on a paper recently published in Nature by Fucheng Zhang et.al, 2010, regarding the animal's coloration. apparently, some pigmentation was fossilized in the fur/feather coat, revealing a surprisingly colorful animal. thanks must be given to the person who drew this, since he did an excellent job depicting it.
any opinions?
