A cave bear rug in grey. It is outlined in a rusty red color and has gold on the nose and across where the eyes would be. It also has some lines resembling cracks done along the shoulder and neck.

A love letter to the past..

Where did our lost rhinos roam?

These are of course approximate and might not include all obscure finds. #Sciart

A portrait of the carnivorous dinosaur Dilophosaurus. It's shown side-on, turning to its left to bring its face into view. Its colours are a mix of muted reds and pinkish creams, with notable darker red stripes on the neck. The famous twin crests atop its skull are mostly covered by large air-filled structures, with an almost balloon-like appearance, while the edges of the bones crest are tipped by rows of rounded keratinous spikes. A series of stripes quills stick up from the top of the neck, while the lower areas of the neck show a series of prominent skin folds. Its eyes are a piercing orange, and stand out against the more muted body colours. The background is a textured dark reddish-grey.

After 16 months and 103 layers it's finally finished...

Mummy of a juvenile sabre-toothed cat Homotherium latidens from the Upper Pleistocene of Siberia - Scientific Reports Scientific Reports - Mummy of a juvenile sabre-toothed cat Homotherium latidens from the Upper Pleistocene of Siberia

This is not a drill, a mummified sabretooth cat has been published from the #Pleistocene permafrost of Russia. It's a Homotherium cub! The team (Lopatin et al.) reckon it's Homotherium latidens. It's too young to have enlarged upper canines. Paper is OA ... www.nature.com/articles/s41... cont...

An FYI for people doing Homotherium art:
- The colours and hair lengths of cubs are poor proxies for those features in adult cats; they change ontogenetically
- Soft tissues weren’t explored in great detail in this first study; some odd details like a lack of carpal pads should be taken with salt
