Description
I was just going to do a rhinoceros image for my desktop background, but this guy seemed to make better art. So, I made in the next entry in my paleoart series of pictures. Being for my desktop, I kept the background rather simple so that I wouldn't lose the icons visually.Brontotherium lived in North America about 35 million years ago. Though they look like rhinos, they were apparently more closely related to horses. In fact, remains found by the Sioux, led them to be called βthunder horsesβ in their language.
I created this image using poser and vue. The original model is by Dinoraul and was purchased from Daz3d.com.

Beautiful presentation of this prehistoric creature, I love the dark rain clouds in the background with the sun peeking through the clouds to illuminate the subject, lovely choice in lighting.

This looks really good. I'm not especially good at judging the quality of reality-mimicking CGI, but to me it looks almost as realistic as the images on Walk With Prehistoric Beasts. Most of the reason it's not as good is that the picture looks flat somehow.
