Sue the T. Rex

A full bust reconstruction of SUE. One of the largest, most extensive, and best preserved Tyrannosaurus rex specimens ever found, at over 90 percent recovered by bulk. This reconstruction was done based on our current scientific data and empirical paleontological evidence. Consulted with paleontologists, as well as museum curators. Created referencing Sue's skeleton cast, located in Denver.
Reconstruction scientific paper references from Bell et al and Carr et al 2017.
I created this illustration as a shirt design submission for a competition, organized by the Field Museum and Threadless.
