Jurassic Franchise Suchomimus has been treated phenomenally by the Jurassic Franchise. The two main depictions of Suchomimus are the one from Camp Cretaceous and Jurassic World Evolution, both of which are phenomenal. The Camp Cretaceous Suchomimus coloration and how it is based upon snakes looks amazing it gets into a fight with a Majungasaurus later on and loses. Suchomimus realistically would have won that fight as it was far larger. The Jurassic World Evolution Suchomimus was based on the Jurassic world website’s design it looks accurate and photogenic.
