The true nature of Wendoe is revealed after evolution, a PokΓ©mon that could freeze you in your tracks.

Foeceros, the Horror PokΓ©mon. A Rock and Ghost Type!

Credit to @paleonyx.bsky.social for this amazing PokΓ©mon, they really captured the creepiness!

Revived from a Sharp Fossil is the peaceful but very strange Wendoe, the Enigma PokΓ©mon. A Rock Type! It's actually unknown why these PokΓ©mon were hunted to extinction...

Another work done by @paleonyx.bsky.social ! They turned out really great!

After some time, Kerakalf will soon evolve into Elassudan, the Mighty Horn PokΓ©mon. A Rock and Fighting Type.

In ancient times, these PokΓ©mon were used to burn away evil spirits.

Credit to @paleonyx.bsky.social for this big fella, it turned out amazing!

Afstraya's unique landscape makes it difficult to find intact fossils. But earlier fossils can be revived easily!

Revived from a Blunt Fossil is Kerakalf, the Blunt Nose PokΓ©mon. A Rock Type!

Yea that's intentional. Leptoceratops just needs to be blue in my mind thanks to that game (as well as Bob Nicholls art and the JP institute Lepto), so I figured I'd reference that here

-Leptoceratops gracilis-

I know most small ceratopsians like thise are depicted with quills, but I wanted this guy to have a stocky vibe so I went with thick armour scutes for a more unique look. Just a stocky, bad tempered little bugger

-Aquilolamna milarcae-

This one was tough, since we only have one specimen and it's top down position makes accurately drawing one difficult. But mine ended up being a weird mix of manta ray, whale shark, and megamouth shark

β€πŸ”„ are incredibly appreciated ^^

I used this recent Scott Hartman skeletal

The crest ridges on the snout I gave my design are just a speculative feature to make the head a bit more menacing

-Hybodus reticulatus-

I don't draw sharks or fish often, but I'm quite happy with how this one turned out. I know real hybodus females had no horns at all, but I gave her some tiny nubs anyway just for aesthetics (accuracy purists forgive me)

-Deinonychus antirrhopus-

Thanks to several paleomedia appearances, Deinonychus just has to be blue imo. But I also wanted mine to feel distinct, and I'm really happy with the result. This might be my favourite design so far

-Tapejara wellnhoferi-

Tropical little frugivores with colours inspired by toucans/ hornbills. I even gave them the ridges on the beak that toucans have. They also have a slightly speculative crest shape to reference older Tapejara depictions

-Torosaurus latus-

Shy and mostly solitary forest dwellers, these tall ceratopsians possess one of the largest skulls in nature. These Torosaurs also possesses colour changing chromatophores in their crests that reflect the animals moods

--Styxosaurus snowii-

I gave my Styxosaurus some vivid colours and bold patterns inspired by boa constrictors, moray eels, and several lizards. I also gave it some subtle moray eel-like hornlets for some unique visual flair

-Pteranodon sternbergi-

It took me so long to get the anatomy right for this one, Pterosaurs are bizarre. These are fairly simple reconstructions, no wierd or speculative features, but I'm really happy with them

-Standoff in the Snowy Forest-

A hunter runs into a hungry Nanuqsaurus in the dark forests of the Borealis Sector

Just a fun experiment in drawing harsh lighting, and an opportunity to revist Carnivores Exodus again

My first Bluesky commission, this is Shoerex by @corraven.bsky.social, a combination between a Shoebill and a Tyrannosaurus. This was a really fun one to work on

-Tylosaurus proriger-

I was kinda tired of blueish-grey countershaded mosasaurs, so I gave mine some intricate patterns inspired by tree monitors and perenties. The females are also larger and bulkier, as seen in modern snakes

-Stegosaurus stenops-

I wanted my stego to have a sort of floral garden vibe. Lots of varied greens and some sunny amber plates, or green flower buds in the case of the female. The streak on the side of the body is also inspired by anteaters
