For paleoartists: if you're sticking with adding lips to Spinosaurus, do consider this:

So apparently osteological neutral position was used to posture the skeleton here - but ONP is not necessarily a reliable measure of an animal’s posture (https://t.co/nQiHIg0bXZ). There is also no mention of intervertebral cartilage in the paper, it doesn’t seem accounted for?

“They both look beautiful!”
“They’re both great designs!”

uhuh..

@Cl1ffDynos @JaimeHeadden But even with alligator-like soft tissue on the jaw, parts of the mouth in T. rex at least would constantly be open to the environment: unless the jaw bones totally overlap, there are huge gaps around the teeth that only soft tissue as extensive as lips could really cover. (3/3)

@PermianSailback @jimmadseni Me, an average mammal enjoyer:

Just another progress check, Smilodon fatalis sometime August/September vs more recently. Hopefully the more recent one looks better lol

So, been working on this for a while now but I feel like I've done enough to post a progress.. post on twitter. Panthera atrox, WIP :]

First digital model I did (Kelenken: 15/04/20)

vs

Two recent WIPS (Panthera atrox: 28/02/21 and Thylacoleo carnifex: 01/03/21)

If you see this post, retweet with some of your older and most recent artworks! Would love to see the progress some of y’all have made

A cool bit of trivia I didn’t know about till recently - frostbite spiders from Skyrim are not spiders, they are spider-convergent solifugids

The secret is in the chelicerae: spiders just have fangs, whereas solifugids have pincers
