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

Getting back into the swing of ungulates after a bit, here are four rhinos: Parvorhinus, Uintaceras, Megacanodon, Aprotodon qiui #paleoart #sciart

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. "An enigmatic teleost fish from the Eocene of Bolca (Italy) with unusual larval-like features." Papers in Palaeontology 11, no. 3 2025e70017 May 8 2025

Two giant dicynodonts, brown and gold, move through a forest. The male is larger, with pointy downward facing tusks, and the female is smaller with forward facing tusks.

A mated pair of Lisowicia trundle through a conifer forest. I'm not super happy with this piece (I really struggled with the lighting), but I'm glad I attempted a plant-heavy background with this Cheirolepidiaceae forest.

silly #SciArt doodle of a mosquito like creature, but it is a black head with a long snout, two teeny white eyes, and a giant lemon shaped yellow body with two chubby wings

#InverteFest Day2 is this guy from Binding of Isaac who I THINK is a mosquito. could be a midge? he does suck (energy bars) 🩸

I've been trying this sort of quick-and-dirty approach to painting over my Blender models recently, and I'm really enjoying it!

Manipuloyx, a new alvarezsaur with really fascinating hands!
The condition of the fingers isn't that unusual for the clade but the OSTEODERMS on the hand are new!

Understood, all glory to Paleostream🫡

Josch what on earth is the figure being used for scale lmao

A male Nanotyrannus lancensis sports their sharp and contrasting breeding season colors. They lift their head up and catch the whiff of the promise of hope... a female...

The northern elephant seal, once near extinction with just a few survivors, is now a conservation success story! Thanks to the California Conservation Genomics Project, scientists have generated a high-quality reference genome to study its resilience, genetic diversity, and recovery.

Two Denversaurus meet at sunset. Referenced from a photo I took in Montana this summer.

Denversaurus belongs to the ankylosaurian family nodosauridae. Unlike ankylosauridae, nodosaurids lack a tail club and many have shoulder spikes.
