1.JP raptors are monsters.
2.Some of the wrong deviations are wrong because of "details" (like feathers attached to the wrist, but no to the second finger).
3.Real Velociraptor here
4.I'm not criticizing art, just scientific accuracy, so please don't get offended.
5.I do not own the art above, all belong to their respective owners and can be found by DA-searching "Velociraptor" and viewing the first page.
6.Meme based in
[link]7.Again: this is not intended to offend anybody. If you keep searching a couple of pages more, you'll find my first Velociraptor paintings, wich are wrong, too.

Paleontography (paleoart) isn't just art. In fact, most of the value is on the science you put in the drawing. So, in a strict point of view, they're not good works (even if the artistic vision is flawless).
And there are some wonderful speculative raptor-like (artistic, creative)depictions. Example: [link]
Sorry if you think I was a bit aggressive, as a dinosaur nerd this is my opinion.
I love the creative realistic ones, they're badass. But theres a place in my heart for creative goofy cartoon animals too. Theyre just as imaginative, just in a different way.
