So glad I could be an inspiration! Slight correction, I hate to be pedantic, but it was meant to be a dromaeosaurid preening. But I’m so glad I could inspire you, that actually makes me immensely happy. And an absolutely gorgeous choice of color inspiration you chose

Ah yeah, I almost even wrote dromaeosaurid instead of raptor but went with the generic, darn! 
Not to compare 2 different styles, but I am genuinely so blown away by yours. I would SO love if you happened to post more sketches here, and I’m sure everyone else would agree!

Will do 
I’m kinda inconsistent with when I get around to drawing, but when I do make some things, I’ll post it on here. I’ll definitely post my sauropod drawing when I get around to finishing it

I’ve been meaning to ask this, but why do you shade it in purple? lol I don’t know why but my mind has always wanted to ask

Like the actual multiply layer in purple for the shading effect? Using dark purples or blues for shaping instead of blacks creates a more organic looking effect, its some weird color theory thing.
If you want a cartoonish or flat style you can shade with black, which is totally valid and honestly probably would work with this style, I’ve just been told shading with black is a cardinal sin
