I saw this dinosaur in the movie Jurassic Park and I did a report on it also. One of the earliest mentions of "philosoraptor" on the web can be found in a quote by a ten-year-old Hope from Kentucky, originally posted via children's site EnchantedLearning on December 28th, 1998: I like the philosoraptor because it spits an acidy type of substance in its victims eyes. Due to the similar sounds of the two words, it is quite likely that various people arrived at the concept of a Philosoraptor independent of one another.
The last thing I did was nudge the eye slit over to the right like three times, and that pulled it all together- really gives him that far-away look.Īlthough "Philosoraptor" (combination of Philosopher and velociraptor) appears on the original t-shirt design, the portmanteau word has been used elsewhere prior to the release of Lonely Dinosaur merchandises. The claw was based off an image of an eagle talon that I flattened, drew in some bits, and moved and enlarged one of them to make the raptor-like claw. I took the jaw off of one at the mouth, and cut it open to make the mouth look like it was hanging open. The image itself was a mix of several images of velociraptors I got online, which I compressed to one-color images, then mixed together.
The final image wasn't created until late summer and the t-shirts went into production in August and September that year. In an e-mail exchange with Know Your Meme, Smith revealed that the idea for "Philosoraptor" image was conceived sometime in the early of summer of 2008. On October 8th, 2008, the original illustration of the Philosoraptor was released and copyrighted by creator Sam Smith as a T-shirt design for sale on the online retailer Lonely Dinosaur (shown below). Philosoraptor is an advice animal image macro series featuring an illustration of a Velociraptor paired with captions depicting the dinosaur as being deeply immersed in metaphysical inquiries or unraveling quirky paradoxes.
