Of course the big paper on Azhdarchoid phylogeny comes out while I'm at a museum on a research visit (looking at Azhdarchoid cervicals, obviously) but now I'm back at the hotel so it's time to write a proper thread! 1/28

The maps of Terra Arcanis. Although this world is also called Earth, it's altered by the presence of magical property, known as Arcane, thus significantly altered the planet compares to the Earth we know. Currently, only the Old World side has a detailed map.

A Paranthian beast tamer tried to tame a Common Dragon (Draconus volaticus) as a hunting companion like he did with raptors and wargs before... It didn't go well for him.

A simple drawing of an angry looking Diplodocus

Mean Diplodocus. Can you already guess that I'm leaning into purple when colouring? xD

"Forbidden Night Stroll"

Although I draw mostly animals, I also aim to perfect drawing humans! Still have quite a long way to go.

Ps: The little maid here wasn't in (any real) danger, she just wandered unauthorized into her "boss"'s room.

Balaur bondoc, here interpreted as a bird, being harassed by small, colorful azhdarchids.

"Stage of Gold"

A paleo-art contest entry featuring a pair of Epidexipteryx during a mating ritual.

Jidapterus, showing of it's speculative cheeks.
At least some azhdarchids appear to have an extremely short tail, so much that it's questionable if it was even visible in the living animal.

With the extinction of non-avian dinosaurs, many groups of animals diversified to fill the niches left by the doomed dynasty. One of them was the dracomorphs that increased in size and began their path to the apex of the ecosystems.

#speculativeevolution #creaturedesign

The ancestry of dragons, sea serpents, and wyverns of Terra Arcanis dated back to the Mesozoic Era. Fire-breathing ability was first evolved as defense mechanism as these early dracomorphs lived as small critters under the shadow of the non-avian dinosaurs.

Koraizard!

Some splash art of my anthropavian characters, showing how their mutated wing feathers can be used to hold object like human hands do. They also wear different gears such as armors, ornaments, and shoes.

Two anthropavian emus had a dangerous encounter with a giant predator fish called Hiira during their sea grass gathering trip in the sea grass meadow of the Southern Isles.

The Great Wilds Serengeti is one of the largest Plains found on the Great Wilds Continent. Aspidatherium is a large herbivore that graze on the prairie plants. Although they are large they still fall prey to The ThunderBird

#NativeAmerican #creaturedesign

Another prominent sophont race in Terra Arcanis is the Anthropavian. They are birds mutated by a certain strain of magic, giving them sapient intelligence and other attributes such as speech capability and grasping wing feathers.
