A lot of the paleo artists will learn anatomy of current animals and rebuild and interpret based on muscle structures. For example, birds are a lineage of dinosaurs. There’s also new technology that pops up such as the ability to tell light/dark color patterns on feathers. And the super cool mummified ones too!
