Come on down to #Spectember !

First #Spectember redraw is the ahuizotl!
Imagined here as an amphibious marsupial with fingerlike graspers at the end of its tail. It may have helped arboreal ancestors hang from trees, now it lures and smothers small prey. Or human prey, if you ask your local Aztec fisherman.
Given that #Smaugust is now over, here’s all the dragony goodness while I wait out #Spectember for #Inktober
Another one for #Spectember , the unicorn. The unicorn "horn" is actually a tusk, similar to a narwhal or elephant. Being grazers, these animals adapted a prehensile trunk to pick grass as the tusk prevents normal grazing.
For #Spectember I submit to you, the carnivorous horse, or "loper." To call them horses is a misnomer, these large predators are actually most closely related to hyenas and only resemble horses superficially. They are one of 3 remaining species in the genus hippomorphus.
Using this as chance to plug the atypical designs I have prepared for #spectember #missingmesozoiclife https://t.co/egWTuTDwKf
Day three of #Spectember! Today’s #missingmesozoiclife are a pair of ALPINE Scutellosaurs. The large, big horn sheep like horns are based off of the smaller horns discovered on Scutellosaurus. The thick coat of feathers keeping them warm also obscured most of the scutes!
#Spectember well.. This my second entry, and it is about an odd raven Descendent of ravens in my #specevo project.
1st day of #spectember prompt is opposites attract @SpectrumNoir
