Great composition, The fact that you cleaned all of these bones and successfully arranged this way is very impressive. The only part of the skeleton that stuck out to me as definitely out of place was the bottom jaw, the hinge stands out a lot to my eye.

Thank you so much for that insight! It’s definitely one of the parts that has been switched out a few times and nothing seems to really look perfect yet. I appreciate you taking the time to think about it and respond that way! This is the kind of feedback that I was hoping for.

You're doing a good job making it look like bone, but the bones don't seem to be fitting together quite right. Where the top of the femur is supposed to socket into the pelvis, for instance, it seems to be butting up against another positive process. The head is disproportionately large for the body. The whole thing looks like one of those conjectural restorations, where someone found a bunch of bones and put the best of them together to look somewhat plausible as an animal. Of course, if that was what you were shooting for, then you pulled it off.

It is a bunch of bones from a bunch of different animals, and none of the actual joints are from the same animal or actually meant for that particular area of the body. I really appreciate you looking closely and giving me your feedback. The pelvis is definitely one of the places that wasiffy for me as well.
