Diabolus rex (personal version)

Description

Inspired by the leaked info on the plot of Jurassic World, fourth installment of the Jurassic Park franchise,
I wanted to do my own take of the already (in)famous Diabolus rex. This genetic hybrid is meant to be a cross between Tyrannosaurus rex, a raptor, snake and cuttlefish.

I asked myself; "what if Diabolus rex was an actual dinosaur born from natural selection ?"

And so I tried to create a species using different features from generic tyrannosaurids and dromaeosaurids. The final result is more "raptory" than I intended but you can sense a bit a tyrant flavour here and there.

The scientic name I chose is composed of Sheitan, the hebraic word for The Devil, the classic raptor suffix and Tyrannomimus for obvious reasons.

The lack of feathers is only an artistic choice. I may do a feathered version one of these days.

And you, what would your Diabolus rex look like ? ;)

 Beautiful :) I imagine it looking similar but because of the genetic anomalies in the dinosaurs ( lack of feathers, scales, the Visible fenestrea, the pronated hands, and the t Rexes lacrimal ridges) the D- rex will have pronated hands, raptor like claws, T. rex like feet, with a much larger toe on its foot, however it won't be raised up all the way like a raptor, at least not fully, a snout similar to here but a bit more T. rex like, pebbly skin, a snake like tongue and a size between 13-16 feet in height, 33-40 feet in length and 4-5 tons in weight I don't believe it will be bigger than T. rex I think it'll be slightly smaller actually :)
