I have been wanting to reconstruct Entelodonts for a while, so for today’s #MammalMonday I decided to sketch this Daeodon, a huge entelodon with a 90 cm skull that lived in the Oligocene and Miocene of North America. I really enjoyed this one #paleoart #sciart
Among the most bizarre and amazing Triassic reptiles were the Erythrosuchids, a group of basal #archosauriforms that possessed disproportionately huge heads. Here I have depicted Erythrosuchus (the greenish one) and Garjainia (the smaller one and B&W sketch) #paleoart #sciart
This is one of those instances where you can add extraoral tissue to plesiosaurs. There is no reason why this and several other #plesiosaurs did not have “lips”. #paleoart #sciart
And so I begin developing this sketch of the large, Triassic European pseudosuchian Batrachotomus. I went with the sketch on the right. On the left you can see the very early stages of working in this illustration. #paleoart #sciart #pseudosuchians
BTW... when you think about reptiles where it is very difficult to imagine any considerable amount of extraoral tissue (‘lips”), you think about many #plesiosaurs! Detail of the VERY unfinished head #paleoart #sciart
So aparently is #PortfolioDay so:

A sketch/speedpaint for #DolphinDay Extinct cetaceans swimming in the Late Eocene coastal waters of Egypt. A pair of Dorudon atrox (front) and the giant, serpentine Basilosaurus isis swimming in the background #paleoart #sciart #NationalDolphinDay
Sorry I am very short on time due to a lot of large commissions I am working on at the moment, so I could only find the time today to do two speedpaints of two of your suggestions. Epidexipteryx and an Ichthyostega swimming next to an Acanthostega #paleoart #sciart #SixFanarts
I just realized I have a almost always depicted dinocephalian therapsids in combat or attacking some other animal! 🤔 That is not that usual for me #Paleoart #sciart #synapsids
You have traveled back in time to Late Permian South Africa and all of the sudden you run into this pair of Moschops capensis head butting! What a sight that must have been! Moschops was a dinocephalian therapsid, this a very distant relative of ours #Paleoart #sciart #synapsids
