Day 2:
"In another time, at another place, it's the early jurassic in what is now South Africa. A pair of heterodontosaurs keep close to the shadows of the local giant herbivores. But these are not the early sauropods of our planet."

Cetiosaurus.
A painting from my upcoming book “Project:Tepui”. An intentionally out-dated reconstruction of this sauropod dinosaur, in keeping with the book’s retro-aesthetic. (I’m adding that disclaimer to pre-empt the palaeo-police. Because I’m tired.)

Dino Fact!

Yunnanosaurus (Yunnan Lizard) is a sauropodomorph from Early-Mid Jurassic China! It was one of the last "prosauropods" to ever live! It's believed to primarily be quadrupedal, but like other prosauropods, could also stand on two legs!

Last time of me posting Francesco before rigging and animating, but apparently he is a favourite of y'alls so far? I don't mind, sauropods are great. And this guy is absolutely MASSIVE. I really can't wait to begin bringing him to life in motion!

Bienvenue Silutitan et Hamititan, 2 nouvelles espèces de sauropodes chinois! Bon, ils ont été trouvés sur le même site à quelques kms de distance, et on n'a que le cou de l'un et la queue de l'autre, donc c'est bien possible qu'on ait qu'1 seule espèce! 😈 https://t.co/67d4m8L4d7

I don't know, guys, gals and nonbinary pals. Sauropods are weird as they are, but Giraffatitan (or brachiosaurs in general)? Even weirder. However, I find their slim limbs and long proportions to be en par in gracefulness to Lambeosaurus, Corythosaurus, Parasaurolophus & Co. Yes.

Dino Fact!

Eoraptor (Dawn Thief) is a eusaurischid from Late Triassic Argentina! It was among the first dinosaurs to ever live! Since it resembled both theropods and prosauropods, it was put in Eusaurischia, the group the other two diverged from!

Dino Fact!

Pycnonemosaurus (Dense Forest Lizard) is an abelisaurid from Late Cretaceous Brazil! Estimated at over 30 ft long, it might be the largest abelisaur we know of! Its fossils were found near some sauropod fossils too, meaning it might've hunted them!

So ill be going over Archipelagos' roster, starting with the first ambient, Thecodontosaurus!

A small prosauropod, found all over the Pelagos sector, these tiny herbivores come in many colour morphs. Here are 3 that will be found, with much more to come down the line.
