I *think* the name comes from the same root word (referring to a dragon-like creature in Iranian and Kazakh mythology) as azhdarchids - but I'm not sure.

Either way, this fish is about a metre and a half from what I can tell. Wouldn't stand a chance against Jeremy Wade.

A scary grey and red fish - Aidachar.

Another one of those scary wet things (fish artists, I don't know how you do it) from the Kem Kem waterways - Aidachar. While not very well known, it is part of the same order as the much more famous Xiphactinus.

My top 3 Prehistoric Planet Ice Age sequences in no particular order:

Glyptodont baby shenanigans
Short king Moa
Gigantopithecus 😭

I am in for a bad time 🥲

I just finished Silksong (finished is a strong word... I didn't make it to Act 3) and somehow this is harder

guys I am so bad at this game

Am I really trans if I haven't played Celeste?

(I just bought it because it was £4.18 on sale)

Not quite the 12m wingspan giant from 1999, we now think Ornithocheirus has a much more reasonable, but still impressive, 4-5m wingspan. Also - I've rearranged a few animals in the size chart for a better flow!

Brown Ornithocheirus with a yellow and white keeled crest.

For how famous the original Walking with Dinosaurs made it, Ornithocheirus is a very messy genus, with over 40 species assigned to it historically. Nowadays, only one species of Ornithocheirus remains, known from the UK and the Kem Kem (maybe!).

Doodles for Hong Kong 🇭🇰

In response to the tragic Tai Po fire, I'm doing charity commissions. Anyone who puts over £25/250HKD into "Feeding Hong Kong" or Hong Kong SPCA can request a coloured doodle of any prehistoric animal 🙏

This makes sense!! I will keep this in mind 🤔

Thankfully I'm not rigging this one, it's just for lighting reference... but one day I will conquer my fear of retopologizing properly

Oh boy someone call for help, she's trying Blender again

My mutual has created this resource list for people that are willing to help out: bsky.app/profile/f15h...

A herd of reindeer notice a steppe lion, but she's not interested in hunting right now.

DNA is the smallest of the wriggly wormy things

It's Prehistoric Planet Ice Age day!!!

It does, thank you! Still got quite a few critters to go, but it's getting there!

Will do!!

So dapper

The running pose was very much a tribute to one of Todd Marshall's many incredible crocodylomorph depictions from the early 2010s. Thanks again to Armin Reindl for croc-advice!

A brown running Hamadasuchus

The Kem Kem was home to a few terrestrial crocodylomorphs, and the 2m-long predator Hamadasuchus is one of the more intimidating ones!

Will be going to see the Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age Lightroom event after all! 🥳

Tension rises between the neighboring erectus family and a court of Gigantopithecus. Two weeks ago the cunning fleet-footed hunters managed to kill one of the young ponginae. This particularly huge dominant male won’t let it happen again. Illustration for Ben G Thomas.

Greater Apes

Struthiomimus? neutral

Yes. Ornithomimus on the other hand would be my enemy

I LOVE a thematically appropriate aspect ratio change in a movie

Can't wait to read this!!
