Late Devonian // @franzanth
The early forests of Late Devonian altered the environment, forcing animals to adapt. Creatures like Tiktaalik, a transitional animal showing traits of both fish and amphibians, lived in this period.

Progress made on my #acrylicpainting series Deep Time Dramas! Working to combine #paleoart and expression. Plenty more to go on these (including actually adding animals ofc)
1. The Devonian - love, connectivity
2. The Ordovician/Silurian Extinction - indecision, separation
Pterygotus was a gigantic arthropod that could grow to 2.3 metres long! They lived during the early Silurian-Devonian period. They had a pair of large eyes & a smaller pair in the centre of their head.

Letter B is #Boreaspis for @AnimalAlphabets!
Fun fact: boreaspis was the most suspicious prehistoric fish & did not work well together. This made them easy prey & actually caused them to go extinct long before the Late Devonian Extinction 🙃
