I often don't show WIP unless Im sure I have done things right but I wanted to share the progress on the redesign of the king radiodonts and gilled lobopodians , the first megafauna animals on earth, this from a future revision of my original cambrian size chart.

I hit 2000 followers! In honour of that, here’s a visual demonstration of the ‘eversion’ of a Gilled lobopodians mouth (Vinther et al, 2016). In this case it’s the king of the Lobopods, Omnidens amplus, feeding on several Paucipodia.

Tritonychus was an aquatic, Onychophoran-branch Lobopodian that lived in the tropical sea of Cambrian China. It had three claws on each leg. The holotype of Tritonychus is exceptionally well preserved in 3D, usually something only possible in the Orsten

Okay. You asked, I did it, even though it was hell to draw.

More to come soon.
