Shield Bearers v.2.0 — Description
Next prehistoric remake, of my stegosaur line: [link]

Truth be told, it was harder to remake these than I thought, but I actually have ~Torus333 to thank for influencing the new design. I know most people would go for just the stegosaur route but Torus had the thought, shown in the [link] , to combine the traits of both groups of Thyreophoreans (the group containing stegosaurs and ankylosaurs), and I was inspired. Just to make mine distinctive, I also kept the traits of crystals for mine, but kudos goes to him for the idea nonetheless; I just hope my designs don't look too similar to his . Also, the title for this deviation comes from the etymology of Thyreophorea, which literally means "Shield Bearers" in Latin.
Based respectively on Kentrosaurus/Pinacosaurus, Dacentrurus/Euoplocephalus, and Stegosaurus/Ankylosaurus.
