Speculative reconstruction of my study area in northern Australia 1.35 billion years ago. Wanted it to look like an artsy satellite image, instead it's like a bairn coloured it in. 😅
Ammonite reconstruction part 2 ~ A modern re-telling:
Following on from our previous ammonite paleoart post, this modern image demonstrates what an ammonite may have actually looked like, following further studies on their ancestral relationships.
A recent data leak has confirmed that Sonic, the iconic green hedgehog, was originally going to be blue. Below is a reconstruction of what this might’ve looked like.
Wow this paper really used dinosaur toys to estimate volume/mass and called them "scientifically accurate palaeoreconstructions".

So on top of the lobopodian-like sclerites, we have paired stubby things underneath these worms - just as lobopodians have walking legs attached under their sclerites. Here's a 3D reconstruction of the little stubs underneath the sclerites of Tabelliscolex:
For the unfamiliar: ceratopsid reconstructions often misplace the earholes into the laterotemporal fenestra. The correct position is the space between the quadrate and the depressor mandibulae. This diagram by @Sketchy_raptor is a good reference. Photo by me.
@marwilliamson Have you ever looked at recent dinosaur reconstructions? Fascinating.
@tipcy65 Hey thanks Todd. I don't have any plans to write. UFOs and Art are true passions of mine so for the moment I'm primarily planning on focusing on doing more UFO-themed art. Here's a sneak peak of an alien I'm working on for an upcoming reconstruction of a classic saucer sighting.
"This was the previous reconstruction of Iocosaurus.
However, from the recent discovery and research,
we have found out much more accurate depiction of Iocosaurus."
"Fxxk. There goes my paper."
@DinosaurDrawing That specific style of reconstruction never seemed to be accurate at any point in time, but most closely resembles the raptors in the 80s-early 90s

However, the most recent Saurian Rex was released almost three years ago. Since then there's been a ton of variation between reconstructions. Some leaning more conservative and others with more novel integument. Here are some of my recent favorites:
Niankhkhnum & Khnumhotep
Wonderful reconstruction from the graves of earliest gay lovers of whom we have record, Niankhkhnum & Khnumhotep, https://t.co/q1lgRoxgok
