A triceratops with more avian features, may have gone a lil overboard with it though

Today marks the 1-year anniversary of when I 1st shared my #paleoart on social media! The inaugural Instagram post was of the nektobenthic Paleozoic cephalopod Aphetoceras, so I thought I'd recreate it:

Here's the head, featuring a crest-type thing. #Camarasaurus

Camarasaurus lentus, one of the most common and well-known sauropod dinosaurs. Probably not much to say that you don't already know. #paleoart #paleontology #sciart #scientificillustration #fossilfriday #dinosaur
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
...Stenoprotome, Brebodus and Gladiopycnodus.

My most detailed entry into the Proboscidea series was the American mastodon. I painted as much of the fur as possible. https://t.co/PhJrTVUk21 #SciArtTweetstorm #paleoart #paleontology #scientificillustration
Palaeoloxodon falconeri is a great example of the crazy size disparity that can occur within the same genus. I didn't know this extreme was possible for mammals https://t.co/x52Tj8s0aH #SciArtTweetstorm #proboscidea #paleontology #scientificillustration
The longest tusks ever belong to this behemoth, Zygolophodon. https://t.co/LxAvWnI9IX

Aaand the biggest proboscidean ever, the massive Palaeoloxodon namadicus. This one I can really hear the elephant-like rumble every time I look at it. https://t.co/rL3HgZ2cs0 #SciArtTweetstorm #paleoart #proboscidea #paleontology

Spinosuchus was probably similar in size to Trilophosaurus, although as you can see its tall neural spines give its back a raised hump/sail and less of the lean, iguana-like silhouette. #paleontology #fossils #Allokotosauria #paleoart #sciart #naturalhistory #illustration
I also went with a similar coloration scheme, with a striped face and patterning along the upper half of the body on a yellow-green "base". There's a possibility Spinosuchus was arboreal like its close relative, but either way I think this coloration fits. #paleontology #paleoart
