It seems it is again!
So...

Hi, I am Gabriel and I am a paleoartist and scientific illustrator. I specialize in reconstructing and illustrating extinct and extant tetrapods

Part of one of the three plates depicting the tetrapods of the Late Jurassic Solnhofen Formation of Germany. This is one of the plates that will appear in my book (currently still in prepartion). I have left only the not in silhouette.

Spent the morning reading about maximum body size in marine tetrapods, and how baleen whales achieve their remarkable size because of awesome feeding efficiency. Sorry folks, blue whale-sized marine reptiles are very unlikely: Shonisaurus et al. are likely as big as they got.

As voted earlier this morning, here is my sketch/speedpaint today: the large, big headed stem-tetrapod Crassigyrinus scoticus. My entry for today’s There are two Crassigyrinus here

Speedpaint/sketch. Woke up today and had this idea of depicting a swimming Acanthostega (a well known aquatic Devonian stegocephalian stem-tetrapod from Greenland). Who can say no to depicting these cool animals with eight digits?!

Here is a tetrapod-related off theme to tide you over while I work on a bunch of stuff today. Tropical frog commission!

For here's a private commission of Tiktaalik I completed earlier this year. It took some time to get the body shape right as there's lots of subtle nuances to tetrapodomorph anatomy. They weren't just gars with funky heads and limbs.

A finishing touch to my presentation!

If you want to hear some exciting news on the evolution of seals, I'll be presenting on Wednesday in the Marine Tetrapods session at 11:45am

Beaks have appeared separately numerous times in tetrapod evolution. I have depicted 5 examples here: dicynodonts (top left), pantestudines (center), rhynchosaurs (top right), shuvosaurid pseudosuchians (bottom left) and ceratopsian dinosaurs (bottom right)

Propatagia (the membrane on the leading edge of the forearm) - always add them when designing flying tetrapod creatures!

(in order: Chicky the Moluccan cockatoo, horseshoe bat, colugo/flying lemur, Haopterus by )

Model systems for regeneration: salamanders
In the first of a new series of Primers, Alberto Joven, & András Simon survey salamanders, the tetrapods with the widest range of regenerative capacity

The thing about coelacanths is that every single one of them LOOKS like they were there 400 million years ago for the birth of tetrapods, and they've been regretting it ever since

I love their personalities. They get all sorts of grumpy with me when they have to "walk" on land (wet paper towels) once a year to demonstrate early tetrapod evolution to my students.

I am happiest when I'm drawing fish, but sometimes people ask me for tetrapods or plants or whatever. In the photo I'm standing next to an illustration I did while working in Javier Maldonado's lab, which I'm not sure will ever be published now.

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
