Rare dinosaur skins.

[[Murica] Uder]

I caught a (I think) rare Phiomia last night.
It was beige with white and gray spots.

So aside from the albino trex, I was wondering what are the rare colors of the other animals people have seen/caught?

Please post pics if you have them, I would but I am working and didn't think about taking a pic at at 3 am in the morning.

Just because its a white t-rex doesnt mean its albino, It has to be pure white, with red eyes, no like different color spots or spines, has to be 100% white.

I don't know if they are particularly rare, but my two prettiest dinos are both Dilos -w- Caught them on lowest setting too, so I didn;t know their colours until after I tamed them

If i'd known there were this many people amazed by fairly common colors of the dinos i would have taken screenshots all throughout the game.

Every animal has a wide range of colors that can be generated onto them and if any of you live inward on the island you'll find out these "rare colored dinos" are more common than normal looking ones.

Dodos have been (full body) purple, green, red, blue, black, and white with different tints to them, and so have all other dinos. some of you have mythed that the top color of carnos doesnt change much, and i concur. i've seen green tops matched with a lighter green bottom, and the same with red colors. mammoths in blue, green, white, black, and a pinkish red (same with sabertooths). an argentavis with white and blue. and many others, really just play the game exploring and not raiding someone's thatch/wood house for things you should be able to make on your own just as easily and you wont be surprised by any of the above screenshots.

Personally I play this game on singleplayer and I am currently over level 50, I've done plenty of exploring. If all that ticks your box for special is "white", then yes your dinos may be quite common.

If not, coming across a specific colour palette a second time is difficult when you miss an opportunity to tame or lose the first dino you saw with that particular set. I've yet to find any perfect clones of my lost dinos to replace them with (eg. I've seen plenty of deep-green based raptors, but not my deep-green base raptor with double green feathers and a contrasting cream underbelly).

Every generated colour palette may be as equally rare because as far as I know they're all randomly generated (although some species seem to have less variation than others), so it's not really a "rare skin" that anyone is sharing here.. it's more like getting lucky with random generation. However you want to put it, I think the point of the thread to share your finds remains.

Spotted an Albino Spino just a few minutes ago. The tips of the spine were red but everything else was white. Beautiful coloration, I wish I could have tamed it, but it disappeared into the deep part of the ocean after chasing something. Not sure if it's still down there or if the sharks killed it. Not going to check, lol.

I've got a red female Carno I'm taming currently, I think the dev's have stated that females of the dino's are the ones that have more coloration which I believe is wrong. Males are the ones who are suppose to have more coloration than the opposite sex for means of gaining mates. Male birds for example have more coloration than their female counterparts for the exact same reason. But it's a game so eh.

Not always correct, it is not a strict rule for all species. Some species it is the female's that are the more attractive/colourful. Both for birds and reptiles, it is not uncommon.

Gorgeous red parasaur with black accents. Unfortunately it died. :/

Killed a black Dilo with gold accents. Gorgeous.

I reckon the rest of my dilos are rather pretty as well. Especially Red. Will come back with some caps tonight.

Well my tribe has the pink carno, we've had it for a while but since the last update I've seen some different carnos around besides the old typical gray.

Also found this red/black raptor with blue and purple feathers, which I later tamed and still have:

Haven't seen any spinos with white fins until this one, so maybe it's a rare color?

My tribemate has a really lovely spino that I've never seen repeated as of yet:

Seeing "rare" colors is one thing, but to get the nice combos, that's the truly rare thing.

In terms of raptors, which I've spent a great deal of time hunting specifically for color, I'd say the unusual colors seem to be red bodies, deep green bodies, and true black (not brown). In terms of their feathers, the red/pink/orange combo and green/blue/purple combo seem to be uncommon, while pure red/pink, pure purple, and pure green/blue seem to be very uncommon. On my server, I see brownish raptors more than anything. I have some really beautiful raptor color combos, white/orange/purple, white/light orange/black/red, green/purple/blue, but haven't taken any screenshots yet.

In general most things that have white in them seem to be more uncommon.

Here is a picture of my carno. I noticed a lot of post and people saying how they dont see them in very different colors. When i seen this carno, I had to have her. Shes a beauty.

I love the blood red t-rex and the raptor with the pink on it (rarely see it)

Stripe the dilo with a nice racing stripe didn't live for long.

Some dude called Bill killed Piri the pink tinted parasaur according to my log in notifs. So I killed his green one.

I saw my first albino Carno today. It was beautiful and had green mossy stuff on the top of it's back. I've seen heaps of albino T-Rexes though. So i'm not sure if the albino skins are actually rare.
