dinosaur looks


Dino Looks

Despite the common belief that dinosaurs are comoflagy colours, i can inform you, after watching the dinosaur 3D film in the Science Museum, that the dinosaur looks in Jurassic Park are far from conclusive. Above is my guess. I read this following passage after making my guess, it bares a striking resemblance to my instinctual one...

'....but other paleontologists say the opposite is true — that dinosaurs' skin could have been shades of purple, orange, red, even yellow with pink and blue spots! Rich and varied colors, they argue, might have helped dinosaurs to recognize one another and attract mates.' (Adapted from Dinosaurs: The Very Latest Information and Hands-On Activities From the Museum of the Rockies, by Liza Charlesworth and Bonnie Sachatello-Sawyer. A Scholastic Professional Book.)

humara pind= New Book!





Here are some pages from a new book 'Humara Pind in Pakistan-Part 1'. It's a fictional book about the memories of an old man who grew up in a villiage in Pakistan. It's loosely based on some of the things my dad told me about his golden olden days but mainly its just made up. You can see the other pages by visiting Orbital Comics in Leicester Square, or Bookartbookshop in Old Street where they are now on sale.
