This is a still from an animation that depicts 2 Tyrannosaurus's that do battle.
The mesh was taken from New Riders New Riders IPAS Plugin Reference CD. The muscular structure is created using the Metareyes plug-in. This involves creating hundreds of spheres (Metaballs) to gradually build up a solid mesh.
