An Oxalaia quilombensis (very close Spinosaurus relative from Brazil) crosses a tidal flat under a dark, cloudy sky. The dinosaur has its tail resting or dragging across the muddy ground, powerful arms, long neck and head and a rectangular-shaped sail on its back giving it a kaiju-like appearance. To its right there's a discarded turtle shell, and to its right, a pile of driftwood. Soft light is hitting its sail and part of its neck making them look brighter and more vivid than the somber looking environment.

Angaturama, a genus of spinosaurid dinosaur, walks through shallow tropical waters carrying a fish in its mouth, towards a sand bank. A flock of pterosaurs flies all around it. Some turtles hang out on top of and around a log in the water.

A group of ancient sea scorpions, reminiscent of horseshoe crabs, come of out the sea and crawl around a beach at dusk. A crescent moon, shooting star and planetary rings are seen in the sky.

A beautiful sight for compound eyes

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

2014 was the year I built the world famous life-size Psittacosaurus model. Here are my photos of the fossil, which shows melanin colour patterns, my skeletal and muscle reconstructions.
