Hi! I’m Shanley and I guess I like to draw anatomy and fossils. Happy #PortfolioDay !
Some fossil #hominin skulls have an important place in understanding the variation of extinct species. Stw 505 is a large Australopithecus africanus skull, helping to show that big individuals had brains that overlapped in size with the larger-brained Homo. #paleoanthropology
Fun fact, the Kalos Fossil Pokemon, Aurorus, from the Sail Fossil, is based on the Dinosaur Amargasaurus, and not just any bronto or apato or whatever. The resemblance is quite canny here with the sail on it's back as well as other characteristics + it's name.
Students of #hominin evolution quickly pick up the differences between big-toothed Paranthropus boisei and our genus, Homo. Yet there are still anatomical overlaps between these lineages that make some of the fossils from Koobi Fora challenging to interpret. #paleoanthropology
A lonely Diplodocus longus (double beam) crosses a mirror-like flooded salt flat. Classifies as Saurischia, Sauropodomorpha, Sauropoda, Diplodocidae, Diplodocinae. Its fossils were first discovered in 1877 by Benjamin Franklin Mudge and Samuel Wendell
Fossils of Australopithecus and Homo were all obligate bipeds, but their pelvic remains do exhibit some differences. Australopithecus sediba blurs the boundary. With its Homo-like pelvis, this species may be a closer human relative. #hominin #paleoanthropology
reading about gigantopithecus, the largest ape to ever live. fossils indicate it stood as high as 10 feet and weighed up to 1,100 pounds
And she's also done!
Meet Sonnt!
A yound but also talented Sand witch (🥪)
She lives in a desert town and occasionally helps with building and terraforming
She is also very Fond of the fossils and Rocks she finds in the desert and keeps them all in her bag https://t.co/Qyri3LEmnN
PokéNection #2: Porygon is a fossil??
Cinnabar Lab created Porygon as the first artificial pokemon from data and introduces fossil pokémon. Defossilisation is explained to convert fossils to data and data to pokemon.
Porygon's invention paved the way for fossil pokémon.
Dracovish the Fossil Pokémon. A water and dragon type.
Powerful legs and jaws made it the apex predator of its time. Its own overhunting of its prey was what drove it to extinction.
Bzzt! Arctozolt, the Fossil Pokemon. A eclectic and ice type.
This Pokémon lived on prehistoric seashores and was able to preserve food with the ice on its body. It went extinct because it moved so slowly.
For #FossilFriday, me and Eric Snively of @OSUVertPaleo performed an FEA test run on the crania of the long-shouted #tyrannosaur, #Qianzhousaurus. The skeletal drawing was based on the artwork by @AshleyPalaeo.
Uncovering more evidence that modern humans arose amid great genetic and morphological diversity in Africa, we look at fossils like the Eliye Springs skull with new eyes. Found in reworked deposits, the age of this ancient-looking skull is unknown. #hominin #paleoanthropology

"Fossils are so HUGE and AWESOME! I hope I grow up to be a fossil someday, yip yip!"
Today’s Animal Crossing villager I decided to draw is Bones! 🐶🦴🤎🤍
I hope you all like and enjoy, and I’d love to hear your feedback. 😃💕
The ability can be used a variety of ways, from fusing a being into a structure like a rock or a tree as a camouflage to shaping the fossilized being into something more creative like candle holders.

Stands and physically damage them with his bare hands.
By partially transforming, Diego can use the enhanced senses and strengths of a dinosaur.
Fossilization: Diego demonstrates the ability to alter beings transformed by his Stand into a hardened dormant state much like a fossil
Send me a reply and I'll send a type!
I got a ROCK!
I also realized I don't like many rock... types.... THE FOSSILES THO! they're good!
also included general lines instead of specific evo stages! https://t.co/FZC5z3PbrL
