Carnivores Dinosaur Redesigns

Between the late 1990s and the early 2000s, the Ukrainian game development studio Action Forms produced a trilogy of hunting simulation games known as the Carnivores series, in which the player could hunt prehistoric wildlife on an alien planet. The first two games in the trilogy focused on dinosaurs as the game animals whereas the third, Carnivores: Ice Age, switched to Cenozoic animals in a cold polar environment. Since the dinosaurs in the first two Carnivores games were reconstructed according to a combination of "retro" and 1990s aesthetics, I've taken it upon myself to redesign them to better mirror modern ideas of dinosaurs.
Background music is the work of Rich Douglas, whom you can support by purchasing the soundtrack he did for the reboot Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn.

Very cool! Your art style is very visually pleasing, and it’s just a really neat idea to see the classic colors on more modern depictions!

[@BrandonPilcher]

Thank you very much!

Oh hi saurian target

[@nightfuryman1209]

If I could reboot the carnivores games I would still set it on an alien planet but have it be that an ancient alien civilization came to earth during prehistory and abducted populations of prehistoric animals throughout the early Permian to Pleistocene epoch and brought them to the alien planet for scientific research However they became extinct and are long gone by the time the reboot game takes place

[@MsJenncain]

Very cool!😮

[@eaglewolffox6275]

I imagine the redesigned velociraptor shot animation will have feathers flying just like how real life birds when shot have feathers flying.

[@DeadMansParty]

Great draws! It’s cool to see more accurate dinosaurs but keeping the Carnivores vibes.

[@goldman77700]

This art style feels sooo much like the 1998 Zilla(American Godzilla) tv show down to the color palette. Great work!

[@cyborgparrot1996]

Do you think you'll do another video like this with redesigns of the Ambient Dinosaurs, Mobile Exclusive Dinosaurs (including the currently unimplemented Dilophosaurus), and/or Cityscape Dinosaurs?

[@BrandonPilcher]

I might do the ambients from C1 and C2, but have no interest in either the mobile ones or the Cityscape ones.

[@cyborgparrot1996]

@@BrandonPilcher Fair enough, Cityscape isn't held much in high regard amongst the Carnivores Fanbase anyway.

[@spino2019]

this is what hd should have been

[@BrandonPilcher]

It would've been cool if the HD/Reborn designs more closely resembled the ones from the original games, wouldn't it?

[@spino2019]

@@BrandonPilcher I agree soo much

[@ibmomo8093]

Im all for the spinosaurus redesign cuz it's scientificly accurate

[@BrandonPilcher]

Thanks! The stumpy legs of the new Spino do look a bit weird IMO, especially compared to its cousins Baryonyx and Suchomimus, but that's science marching on for you.

I believe the dinosaurs from carnivores are not actually normal dinosaurs but an alien dinosaurs from another planet.

[@WhoCaresAboutTheName173]

Especially that 23 meters long rex

[@babahippogaming1262]

Reminder: the dinosaurs are aliens so they would have evolved kinda differently to the Earth dinosaurs. I imagine them all being cold blooded, but the birds from Carnivores: Ice Age being warm blooded

[@Mexican_Son_Goku]

While it does look dope as hell It ruins the whole point of it, the dinosaurs are apposed to represent old depictions of dinosaurs, and no hate in typing this, I truly love the passion. so I wish that hd could have done this, or do this in there new update if they will have one

[@BrandonPilcher]

The dinosaurs in the original Carnivores games seem to be a hodgepodge of retro and 1990s influences, with the theropods looking more 1990s than the others. But thanks for your thoughts anyway.

[@Mexican_Son_Goku]

Don't we all wish that we could have seen trike pachy in carnivores 2

[@Mexican_Son_Goku]

That would be cool

[@coolbird6371]

Here's an idea: The developers of Carnivores could make a version called Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Evolved where they have more accurate dinosaurs.

[@Ovskyizrod]

I think i prefer the original designs except for the chasmosaurus & Allosaurus, Because i like vintage dinosaurs more , these lizards were more lively and appealing to me then they are now.

[@dino-boy0155]

This is what the Chasmosaurus should've been in Carnivores 2! Zdenek Burian would be very proud

[@tyrannotherium7873]

You made them more accurate

[@dinodino1044]

really really well drawn i wish i could draw like that

[@kevinobill4818]

Very nice video.

[@Jurassic150]

Impressive. Have you thought about redesigning the dinosaurs from the Dino Crisis games as well?

[@BrandonPilcher]

No, because I never got around to playing those games anyway.

[@Jurassic150]

Okay. Just wondering.

[@MichaelRyanMoss]

@Brandon Pilcher Very GREAT design!

[@mrwite-s1k]

Definitivamente éso un buen arte conceptual

If Carnivores have its own "Operation Genesis" is going to be great, More if the music is tetric

[@BrandonPilcher]

Thanks!

[@pedrocampos1787]

Okkkk

[@alexthefox1175]

They should make a whole remake of the game

[@BrandonPilcher]

Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn and Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt were supposed to be that, but the former proved difficult to update due to the nature of the proprietary engine they were using, whereas the latter has all but stopped development probably due to the invasion of Ukraine (since most of the devs working on the game are over there).

[@alexthefox1175]

@@BrandonPilcher guess that’s good night Irene

[@dagoodboy6424]

Nice although the cera was a bit dissapointing since in game its horn was very prominant and it was bulky. Nasacornis couldve been very impressive. Plus the pattern was a bit dull. U should also draw em en retro style.

I like the idea, but if you actually think that the classic ALIEN dinosaurs should look like earth's or more accurate, than don't try putting this weird design on these ALIEN dinosaurs.

[@kellyonasanya7207]

You missed some dinosaurs the Carnotaurus and the oviraptor and the Utahraptor😮😮😮🦕🦖

That's because they're from the mobile port, which I have never played. I focused on the dinos from the first two games only since those are what I'm familiar with.
