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
Did my best to make the sabre-toothed metatherian Thylacosmilus look marsupial related, and not just a discount felid or store-brand thylacine. This ambush predator is known from the Miocene-Pliocene of S. America. #paleoart #paleontology #sciart #scientificillustration
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
Last (but not least) allokotosaur: Teraterpeton!!! This charming fellow lived during the Late Triassic in what is now Nova Scotia. Features of note include a long, toothless snout and blade-like claws. #paleoart #paleontology #sciart #scientificillustration #allokotosauria
...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
My 1st contribution to the #SciArt #Tweetstorm: Pamelaria, a basal allokotosaur from the Middle Triassic of India. At approximately 2m, this reptile was as long as I am tall! #paleoart #paleontology #scientificillustration #fossils #Allokotosauria #digitalart #naturalhistory
