Just curious, what are all the animal studies for? like is there a purpose to it.. or are you studying them because you will make a portfolio piece with animals in them?

Those one were to get more familiar with dinosaur anatomy which isn't to different from the modern day animal the difference is that most dinosaur lay egg so they are not mammal so there pelvis is different since the baby doesn't have to go throught the pelvis to get expul during the pregnancy.I think an other feature that is different is that those creature had much more mass to support so they have bone that reflect that reality.Well the aim of those study actually follow my interest in creature design they are not for a portfolio piece yet i need a ton more animal study my creature are lagging behind compare to the rest of topic of concept art.I am overall interest by concept art but i started drawing because my real interest was creature design but than i realize that it area of concept art was anatomy heavy and it scared the sh1t out of me for a good portion of my art journey until i realized that most animal skull can fit certain familiy of animal and it mostly the proportion that change.So it ain't that scary now and i manage to get the ball rolling which is a good step toward my goal.
