Styracosaurus model tweaks

106 votes

Ever since albertaceratops released I've noticed some problems with styracosaurus, mainly the head, which consist of having really large eyes, lack of eyebrow horns, small beak, short horn and extremely large nose, these problems may not sound that bad, but when you compare styracosaurus model to albertaceratops you can start noticing the obvious anatomy and quality difference, thats why I propose model tweaks for styracosaurus, making it more realistic while also unifying the art styles.

The suggested changes are:
-Smaller nose and larger beak
-thinner nasal horn
-smaller eyes
-addition of the eyebrow horns
-added more variety between frill horns, akin to irl styracosaurus individual variation (on this case base subspecies would be based on S. albertensis, defense on S. ovatus and speed on Stellasaurus)

I feel these simple changes would help improve sty's model and put it on par when it comes to quality and style with the new/improved models such as iggy, stego, chei, etc.

Would love to see this. Aside from the quills on the speed species, all the different styraco species are almost impossible to tell apart.

Commenting once again, also to point out that Eotrike had its model upgraded, and it isn't even as old as sty. Alberta and Eo look so much nicer compared to sty, I think it really deserves to be on the same aesthetic level as they are. Plus, the sty is the mascot for the game (sty skull icon, sty on loading screen), it needs some love!

So long as the models are within what the currently widely accepted as accurate dimensions for the dinosaur are, then cool. If not. NO.
