Today's #tbt is not gonna be about #paleoart, but #specbio! These were some of the images I made for @TylerRhodesArt's awesome project about teaching #evolution to kids in a fun way and having artists translate their drawings into fleshed-out creatures: https://t.co/IpPkr8UZlP
Jurassic King (2019), 10 colors.

Quick sketch/speed paint of the weird Pleistocene South American liptoptern: Macrauchenia. Usually reconstructed with a trunk, this was most likely not present as the front of the snout is completely covered by bone (unlike in trunked animals) #paleoart #sciart #megafauna
Sometimes I like to throw plausible speculation to the wind and reconstruct #Dinosaur #Paleoart with coloration inspired by flags:
1. #Neovenator from #England's #IsleofWight
2. #Triceratops from #USA
3. #Spinosaurus ft. #PrideFlag
4. #Concavenator from #Spain's #Cuenca Province

@Paleowin Exactly!!! I had the same epiphany with quite a few Paleozoic groups...
American mastodon! This was fun to draw and will certainly do more prehistoric beasts!!

Most members of its family hail from Asia, but paleontologists found Domeykodactylus in Chile. #pterosaur #fossil #science https://t.co/qIENsCZLg2
March 12, 1784, birthday of Victorian theologian & geologist William Buckland, he described the 1st #dinosaur as Megalosaurus in 1824 based on a fragmentary preserved jaw.

The very rocky process in coloring Teraterpeton. Went from “jungle demon” to “caramel latte” to the final result (“plague doctor iguana”?) #sciart #paleoart #scientificillustration #art
He died for our ferns, so that we may frond salvation

On to Teraterpeton itself. The elongated skull is the most eye-catching feature, esp compared to its relatives. Interestingly, the big hole in the snout was likely an external narial fenestra. Thus, the nostrils were much farther back than in others. #allokotosauria #paleontology
Highlights from the #paleostream!
Viavenator (hidden tribute to Juri Gagarin whose Birthday it is),Thalassocnus, Vulcanops and Bramatherium.
I was born on Mesozoic seas...

March 9, 1847, Mary Anning dies at the age of 47. Her discoveries were some of the most significant paleontological finds of all time.
