A juvenile Dimetrodon giganhomogenes in an Early Permian forest of Walchia piniformis pines. The youngster looks over in astonishment as a Captorhinus aguti makes its escape beneath the safety of a fallen stump after it broken its tail off in the predators jaws.

Two panel comic. Panel 1: a museum display of a megalodon jaw fossil, with some museum goers standing around it. There is a graphic on the information tablet next to the fossil, depicting the approximation of the megalodon’s full size compared to a human. Panel 2: “3.6 million years ago:” we see the true megalodon as it existed, a small shark with ludicrously large, juicy lips.
Humorous drawing in brown pencil of a Spinosaurus mirabilis with a laughing eyes and a sparkling scimitar crest exclaiming, 'I'm a unicorn!'

Whole heartedly agree! They’re such precious little flying gerbils
Here’s the first sketch of the common vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) that started it all too

Golden hour. A large snake the size of a python with a paddle-like tail emerges from under a carpet of floating ferns to breathe, briefly alarming a group of duck-like Presbyornis in her wake. Circling her with interest are shoals of smelt, bowfin, cutlassfish, eagle ray and sand tiger shark; investigating this newcomer to their brackish ocean.
A large Palaeophis tolapicus makes her way to the north pole to enjoy the Arctic summer.

This looks sick! I’m happy there’s some actual art of zealandorhynchus now, most of google images is just AI slop. You’ve done your fellow paleo-enthusiasts a great service 🫡
Vector illustration of Zealandorhynchus fordycei, a large fossil billfish form the early Eocene of New Zealand. The large fish is seen cruising from slightly above, with its tall dorsal and anal fins extended. It has a short, pointed bill and a long lower jaw. It is silvery in color with a coppery sheen and dark stripes along its sides. Text reads: Zealandorhynchus fordycei. Seabourne Rust, Morne Wium, Rodrigo A. Otero and Marianna Terezow. "Fossil Billfish (Xiphioidei) from the Eocene of Hampden, North Otago, New Zealand". Gondwana Research (2025) Oct 24 2025

Yes, yes they are!
A male Tapejara wellnhoferi. Not only does it have a larger and fluffier head crest than the female, it also is experience partial leucism in its fuzzy coat.
A female Tapejara wellnhoferi, also chilling in a tree. I wanted to emphasize the potential for sexual dimorphism in these pterosaurs by giving the female Tapejara a smaller head crest and less extensive pycnofibers on its crest.

I sketched this during last week’s Paleostream and decided to polish it up a bit. Here’s some detail shots and my reference I was using.
Vector illustration of Gracilisgallus linxia, a tiny long legged ground bird from the late Miocene of Mongolia, displaying its long, patterned feathers and puffing out its throat and chest. It is greyish in color dotted with white and orangish spots. Text reads: Gracilisgallus linxia. Ting-Yu Yu and Zhi-Heng Li.

An extinct muntjac-like deer with branched antlers.
Palaeoplatyceros hispanicus- a muntjac-like deer from the Middle Miocene of Spain. Numerous antlers found on Otero Hill in Palencia allow to trace the age-related dimorphism of these animals. The illustration shows an adult, possibly even old, animal and a younger deer in the background.
it’s incredibly important to note that on the new footage that came out from the ICE agent himself, halfway through the video he switches his phone between his hands, opening up to grab his gun way before renee good even starts driving

Vector illustration of Dibango volans, a bizarre fish from the Monte Bolca lagerstatte of Italy. This tiny fish is overall long and thin, with a large anal fin that stretches down its length. It's body is suspended in a large flag shaped pouch connected to its small head, with long trailing pelvic fins and a very long first ray of its dorsal fin. The fish is grayish and semi transparent, with bands of yellow on its long fins. Text reads: Dibango volans. Donald Davsne and Giorgio Carnevale.
