Cartoonish trolls185 viewsVariations on "trolls" from the cupboard-living denizens to the ones that just have odd features and a tail that you meet in the forest to the full-blown under-bridge living maneaters. Apr 14, 2006

Carnivore154 viewsI know, it looks like "Alien." It wasn't intended to - it was an attempt to put together as many features as I could that yelled "predatory" - from the clawlike chitonous forelimbs to the heavy carapace to the skeletal frame to the feline skull face. Apr 14, 2006

Suchomimas spp169 viewsThis one is a bit rushed, and so the dino is a bit smooth. A fish-eating dinosaur, I call this estuarine scavenging "Easy pickings." Apr 13, 2006

Simosuchus clarki205 viewsSimosuchus clarki - I picked this one because I'd never seen a snub-nosed crocodile before, I thougtht it would be cute, and I didn't see any renderings of the creature other than skulls, so I thought I'd take a whack at it. The crocodilians are really cool looking, and I might do a few more along these lines. Apr 12, 2006

Procynosuchus153 viewsDigital painting (fast) of a procynosuchus posturing. Given the anatomy, long powerful forearms and flattened head, I speculated at a more badger-like pose, with the low-mounted forelimbs splayed as the cheeked face snarls. I figured that with chewing teeth it'd need a pouch to keep it from slobbering all out on the ground, hence the more mammalian mouth... the long scales near the snout are also speculative.

Dimetrodon Rough Sketch121 viewsAbout thermoregulation theories in Dimetrodon: heating up the animal and retaining heat in a large animal would be easier without the fin. In modern mammals, the only nearly analogous thermoregulator is on the African elephant (the ear), and that's to dump heat. Other animals that draw heat through fins/wings are either very small or very thin (unable to retain heat). This heat-exchange in a poorly thermoregulated endothermic animal would grow in importance with the animal's size, with younger Dimetrodon's not having as large a "fin" - and that's what one finds in juveniles.Apr 10, 2006
