#Spectember 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."

#Spectember day 2
We are going for a little parade of the dominant jurassic synapsids that reing in a timeline where the archosaurs didn't became a thing and the triassic ended less destructive.
#Spectember Day 1:
56 million years hence a 14 foot Hydrus zeros in on its favorite prey. This serpentine carnivore is actually a derived ferret having evolved for life in the oceans to fill the vacant niches left by now extinct toothed whales
blind aquatic suction feeding mole rat for #Spectember. the only remnants of they're eyes are two small hard lenses, buried deep with in the "melon", that help to focus sound.
Day 1 of #Spectember, using @FabioAleRomero's list. Fully marine moles adapted to a benthic feeding lifestyle.
Another art train! Great stuff Vasi!
Time to show off my old stuff from #spectember
Anyone I can think of has been tagged already :/ https://t.co/vgfwpTPey9
5th entrie to @JoschuaKnuppe's #LostWorld2020 Diablobufoceratops baphometus is an giant predatory frog. They live in spaces that they can hide and waits to prey to show up. #Spectember #Frog #Baphomet #Giant #Toad #Predator #Sciart #Speevo #LostWorld

Welp #Spectember ‘s not over so here’s one more before the month ends; the pixie is the smallest of the wyvern family. They build communal nests which harbor a fungus that causes confusion and hallucinations when eaten. The spores collect as “pixie dust” on their fluffy bodies.

Today’s #OCeptember prompt is “OC Inspirations” and I crossed it over with #Spectember ! alphynix on Tumblr's Spectember posts inspired me to make characters based on spec evo concepts, so here’s one based on their giant shellshark!
Sky Bison: A giant Lasiocampid moth who shed its wings after obtaining airbending by living and feeding on the backs of Lion Turtles.
Turtleduck: A derived relative of Liaoningosaurus with a shortened tail and large tuberculate back osteoderms.

Inspired by Mette and her last entries I did something related to Yoshi probably ancestry, and ended up making it as a high derived armoured sauropodomorph that diverged and survived though two eras as an armoured small animal that evolved into what we see.
First of my ATLA Doodles for #spectember: The Winged Lemur. Ecclesiavolans familiaris is a large Volaticothere with a bony wrist rod similar to those of Scansoriopterygids, which it uses to soar on the thermal updrafts of its high mountain home. Do not let it anywhere near guns.
#spectember day 21: today’s #missingmesozoiclife is a quicker sketch because online school is killing me. These are Mosasaurs hunting in a family group, based on how intelligent Mosasaurs could have been!
#spectember #spectrobes tindera using their fire to light the sun as told in mythology by the original nanairo civilisation
Since I missed yesterday, for #Spectember the 17th, I have a double dose of #missingmesozoiclife, being an estuarine temnospondyl hiding in cold and salty delta mud and preying on an ornithischian and a suction feeding plesiosaur with a large gular pouch for that purpose.
#Spectember day 15: today’s #missingmesozoiclife is simple. It’s a (rather basal) theropod with a hornbill like casque, inspired by the speculation some people were making with the crests of Dilophosaurus
Cave Pony for #spectember - proliferation of bats leads to massive amount of guano, fields of no-chlorophyll plants parasitic on fungi in the guano, and a tiny species of horse goes into the caves to exploit the new niche.
