Summary

Description

Gallimimus bullatus restoration.

• Based Proportionally on Scott Hartman's skeletal drawing. [1]

• Three specimens of Ornithomimus preserve evidence of feathers, including evidence of pennaceous feathers on the arms. ^[1] An additional Ornithomimus specimen suggests that the skin lacked feathers on the lower parts of the thigh and under the tail. ^[2] This image goes under the assumption that Gallimimus were also covered in feathers.

• The colours and/or patterns, as with nearly all reconstructions of prehistoric creatures, are speculative.

Note: I often update my images; If you want to post this image on other websites, if possible, please link to the original file here. This will allow others to see the most recent version. Thanks.
