Not satisfied with just one cookie...

I myself wasn't satisfied...with the diptych I posted yesterday here:
https://365project.org/mcsiegle/alternates/2023-08-23
So I've done a second version of the same thing. I'm still not completely happy with it, but I think this one is better. I prefer this framing. The Allosaurus still looks pasted on top rather than a natural part of the picture. But turning him around gives us his better side. We see his one good arm and I think his expression is less fierce on this this side.

Lovely! If you use a bit of "burn" underneath to give Al the allossurus a shadow he'd look less pasted on ( get me giving out tips!!)

Cute

Another fun diptych.

I like them both equally, but I agree with you. This one is better with his entire arm.

Such fun!

@Dawn @grammyn @joysabin Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this re-do and comment. @30pics4jackiesdiamond Thanks! I may give that a try if I get the time.

I prefer this view as well. Also, the flow from left to right is more natural with the empty plate on the right.

What tool are you compositing the allosaurus with? The reason it looks pasted is because it needs a shadow like the other dinosaurs have. Hope you don’t mind my saying. I think you were right to switch the order from not eaten to eaten, left to right.

Thanks for the observation @shutterbug49
I was using Ribbet. I’ll take your suggestion and Jackie’s @30pics4jackiesdiamond into consideration for future attempts.
