WIP (early stages), detail. Just adding basic colors and shading first. Finally had time to work on this reconstruction of Daemonosaurus observing a pair of Avicranium (a Drepanosaur). Chinle Formation, Late Triassic

Quick morning warmup sketch. Protanystropheus antiquus basking. This is one of the lesser known Tanystropheids from the Middle Triassic of Europe. It had a long neck, but much shorter than Tanystropheus. The Triassic just had the coolest animals

Σαλαμάνδρα, σαλαμάνδρα…: (Μια επανάληψη από το παλιό blog.)   Triadobatrachus massinoti, a proto-frog from the Early Triassic of Madagascar. Δεν είναι υπέροχοι; Τελευταία, γράφω κάτι που με έχει οδηγήσει να ψάχνω για αμφίβια και, περισσότερο, για τις… https://t.co/yKD56b8f1k

WIP, some things still left to refine/finish. Skeletal, musculature and full reconstruction of the head of Eudimorphodon ranzii, an early pterosaur from Late Triassic (Norian) Italy (Zorzino Formation)

The late triassic in a nutshell, despite how important it is to modern life as we know it the triassic really doesn't get enough love

Today is so here are some old reconstructions of Dromaeosaurids, which are some of my favorite I haven’t been able to work on them because I have been concentrated in Triassic and Jurassic species

It’s and here is a WIP I’m working on of a Proterosuchus which just captured a young Lystrosaurus at an Early Triassic, South African river bank. Will it consume it in the water or on land? Many details to be refined but it is getting there.

Therocephalians are another group of therapsids that made it into the Triassic. They were probably distributed throughout Pangea during the Early Triassic. One genus (Moschorhinus) is believed to have survived the Permian extinction

For I am opening a thread about Early Triassic tetrapod faunal assemblages. After the Permian extinction, terrestrial faunal assemblages were depauperate and most were very similar in composition. Temnospondyls were quick to diversify

For a short time, during the earliest Triassic, some parts of the world belonged to the Here for I have reconstructed the large-sized Moschorhinus. It is defending its recent kill, a Lystrosaurus, from a group of Tetracynodon

R is for rhynchosaur.

Rhynchosaur was a reptilian parrot beaked pig from the Triassic that ate mainly tubers and roots. (not literally a pig, but a fat lizard none the less)Illustration for extinct series.

Spread of what the section about the formations (the bulk of the book ) will look like. Like I said in my previous tweet, this one is the middle Sakamena Fm of Madagascar. this is what you’d be collecting if you worked during the Early Triassic

A preview of one of the plates of my in-prep book “Journey To The Mesozoic vol. I”. This is a plate of the Middle Sakamena Formation of Madagascar (Early Triassic) and a closer view to the procolophonid parareptile Lasasaurus
