[SFM] Walking With Dinosaurs Inspired Animation - Downfall Of The Colossus - Part 1

This is the first part of a 3 part series about the epic battle that took place 94 500 000 years ago. Once a year a large group of Mapusaurus gathers on Argentinosaurus nesting grounds to take down the largest land animal to ever walk the earth.
All models are taken either from SFM/Garry's mod workshops or other model packs. Mapusaurus is played by Walking With Dinosaurs Giganotosaurus published by Draco ‪@dracowarrioranimations1239‬. Pterosaurus is played by Quetzalcoatlus and Argentinosaurus - by Puertosaurus(with slightly changed anatomy), both of which were ported from The Isle. The prehistoric bird and the dromeosaurid were ported from Saurian.
Animal sounds are taken from videos by ‪@StudioMod‬ and from Jurassic World Evolution 2 aswell as other paleo-media.
Narration is done by @jonwhitefm from fiverr

Love it!

[@kleiner3469]

Thanks! You are one of the channels that inspired me to make these!

[@vivone7671]

OMG

[@dondigao1057]

Oh my gosh. You're the guy who made that spinofarus animation :D

[@kavehthephantomboy]

Whoever created this Land of Giants version of the Giganotosaurus (I know it's now classified as the Mapusaurus) for SFM deserves an Oscar.

[@djoniamman5318]

What you talking about. Giganotosaurus isn't valid anymore?

[@kaijuar2003]

​@djoniamman5318 No, what they mean is that Giganotosaurus DIDN'T live at the same time Argentinosaurus did. Giganotosaurus lived alongside Andesaurus and an unnamed megasauropod that we know from just a set of footprints. Mapusaurus, on the other hand, DID live alongside Argentinosaurus. Therefore, we can definitely call the Giganotosaurus in Chased By Dinosaurs Mapusaurus since it's teally meant to be a Mapusaurus and not a Giganotosaurus. Giganotosaurus is still valid, it just didn't live at the same time Argentinosaurus existed. Edit: Someone corrected me about the megasauropod, we actually know it from fossil materials not footprints, my bad. Reply made: 3:09 AM Sunday, October 22 2023

[@daliborjovanovic510]

@@kaijuar2003 The unnamed megasauropod you mentioned is known from fossil material. It just hasn't been thoroughly studied and named yet, as it was only found in 2021. The Giganotosaurus in Chased by Dinosaurs is more of a chimera really (as are quite a few WW creatures), combining the latter's larger size with Mapusaurus's coexistence with Argentinosaurus and hypothetical pack-hunting/mobbing behavior based on a multi-specimen bonebed.

[@kavehthephantomboy]

No dude, I mean Land of Giants doc Giganotosaurus is now actually classified as Mapusaurus because it didn't live with Argentinosaurus. @@djoniamman5318

This video shows us how small channels like this, alone can create such realistic short-meter series. Cool! keep on.

[@jaisanatanrashtra7035]

0:15 The Level of Satisfaction after seeing an Accurate 🇦🇷saurus skull is immense 😎✌️ What we saw was a weird skull back in those days

[@ProWalter2]

I love that you used the accurate dino sounds from Studio's channel, and the WWD allosaurus sounds as well for the mapusaurus. This whole video is better than 85% of most dinosaur documentaries today!

[@ARandomPaleoartist]

I love how you included the realistic filming! You can’t film everything at once and so close, so you have the move the camera from a safe distance

[@kleiner3469]

Glad someone noticed that :)

[@PufferfishCreationsOfficial]

Its cool how small docu-series like these have an audience. Can't wait to see the rest.

[@Andrea_the_Collector925]

0:59 "No, not you!" "Bloody Pterasaurs..."

[@veggieboyultimate]

I can’t believe how awesome this looks! I could legit see this as a documentary or a mini series.

[@ShingatsuRyu_9721]

This was an awesome animation, it really feels like an actual episode of WWD and the even the animation of the cg models makes it more closer to the original series's style and I hope to see more like this in the future.

[@bensantos3882]

Sir you did a fantastic job along with your whole crew, talented narrator. I am simply blown away at what you could do without a multimillion dollar budget like the BBC. My nephew whose 5 saw this and immediately thought this was Walking With Dinosaurs. So few of us could ever take a skill to the next level like this masterpiece. You deserve a billion views for this and are the rare type of artist that can bring our imaginations to life!

[@mj09250]

This video,how you can see, made with diligence and turned out very well. Even Nat Geo WILD himself can envy!

[@Adasaur250]

This is awesome! I just watched your Time of the Titans remake and it's great to see that you're doing your own stories too. Looking forward to seeing how the rest of the narrative plays out!

[@titanuskolasaurus2050]

You have got be the one of the most underrated animators. I’ve seen on this app, this is super hign quality. It’s hard to believe this is Sfm

:P

[@eddymercan7487]

What a blast from the past. Even with the rather shrink-wrapped heads this is one of my favourite looks for a theropod

[@apnosaurus]

Love the colors and detail of the models. Love seeing dinosaurs being occasionally social but only tolerating each other. Though wouldn't the teeth and postorbital fenestrae not be that visible?

[@kleiner3469]

The model was made by DracoWarrior Animations, though the design is based upon BBC's Giganotosaurus

[@kleiner3469]

Thank you very much for these marvelous models!

[@unaizilla]

I really love the chased by dinosaurs mapu/giga design, even if it doesn't really resemble any know carcharodontosaur

Dat jiggle is top notch How did you achieve them?

[@franciscs1604]

“Inspired by *‘Walking With Dinosaurs’* ”? *Nice*

[@GeteMachine]

Something this clip got right, that even a lot of more modern paleo accurate attempts often overlook is the landscape. Its actually more accurate not having grass in the Mesozoic period. I distantly heard in a documentary that grass didn't evolve yet until after but its very common to still see grass fields in reconstructions, so this video showing just tress and a rocky ground, is good with the landscape accuracy for the time.

[@chadgorosaurus4898]

This is beautifully made. You need way more than less than 300 subscribers.

[@CharybdisM0ns]

This is very impressive work. If it weren't for the repeating ground textures, i would have been convinced this was a BBC short. The animation is practically on par with the BBC Walking With Dinosaurs series.

[@NeitherdoIknowwhattoputhere]

this is jus amazing. Considering this is a small channel, this is a masterpiece.

[@blubberfeet5430]

Gods this is so so so good. Youve done an amazing job. Truly amazing. I dont know what else to say other then good job!

[@slavraccoon480p6]

I dont often comment on videos but must state as someone who got into making SFM Videos recently this is amazing , i had to re watch this twice the animation is super smooth, great job

[@megolasaurus67]

Not that, was one hell of a first part! Cant wait to see the rest of it, always did love the carnivores of South America, and your doing it fantastic justice! I feel like im back Walking with Dinosaurs :)

[@GODEYE270115]

[@fahdrightone7428]

A criticism I have I'd that the animals featured seem to be somewhat shrink-wrapped, and that some textures on aerial shots are obviously repeated, but these are very small nitpicks at what looks like a magnificent series. Well done, and may fortune take you wondrous places.

[@daliborjovanovic510]

Amazing work! Yeah, the models aren't the most accurate or fitting for this setting, but I understand that you have to work with what you can get. I'm assuming the Acheroraptor and Quetzalcoatlus would be an unenlagiine and basal azhdarchoid of some sort, like relatives of Buitreraptor and Alanqa (who lived a bit earlier in the lower Cenomanian).

[@RenzoStefanoPontexRuiz]

Wow, How beautiful the world is! This place is really nice. Yeah, There are big mountains, There are big meadows, There are so many forests and There are beautiful trees. 2:55 They are sauropods, The biggest animals ever to walk the earth. By the way, What kind of sauropod is that? 🙂👍👌🌎🏞️🌳🌳🦖🦕🦕🦕🤔

I’m glad you did your research and in the video you put it the maposaurs only hunted in gangs not packs big difference I’m tired of people thinking that theropod hunt in packs know the height in gangs just like their relatives crocodilians

[@kleiner3469]

I am trying to make this documentary as accurate as possible. Being a paleonerd really helps

[@tyrannotherium7873]

There’s nothing wrong being a paleonerd

[@tyrannotherium7873]

There are some clowns out there that think that they hunt in packs now they don’t they don’t have the pack metallity like wolves or lions are killer, whales, or etc. if you look at their relatives crocodilians and even birds, they hunt as a team don’t get me wrong, but after the fees that they go their separate ways, even other reptiles, such as Komodo dragons they don’t do it. It doesn’t mean that they’re dumb it’s just that they’re just different then mammals

Render this in Blender, have proper realistic backgrounds and higher detailed textures, maybe slow down the pacing and add dramatic score, reframe a few shots and you'll have yourself something even more solid. It's crazy what fans can do these days. Even this SFM would have been groundbreaking 30 years ago.
