  1. Pangupterus liui was a mysterious #pterosaur that lived in the early Cretaceous of China!
    The holotype #fossil only has the long and thin bottom jaw along with most of the teeth!

    I’ve reconstructed it here as a gallodactylid pterosaur because from what I can tell, the jaw and teeth look most similar to #pterosaurs like these! 🪮

  2. 🚨 NEW PTEROSAUR! 🚨

    Melkamter pateko was an early #monofenestratan pterosaur from the Chubut Province of Argentina! The holotype includes part of the #skull, a couple teeth, a few vertebrae, a metacarpal from one of the free fingers, and “other bone fragments”.

  3. 🚨 NEW PTEROSAUR! 🚨

    Skiphosoura bavarica was a monofenestratan #pterosaur from the #Solnhofen limestone of Germany!
    This species helps us understand how #pterosaurs transitioned from the “rhamphorhynchoid” body plan (regular sized head/neck, long tail), to the pterodactyloid body plan (big head, long neck, stumpy tail)!

  4. My other artwork which I never uploaded here, is the Dunkleosteus. Commissioned by Dr. Brian Curtice.

    Thank you to Mr. Russell Engelman for providing me with fruitful comments about this drawing.

  5. Speaking of time, there sure has been a lot of it! How best to convey the idea of #DeepTime? I'm a fan of a good foldout #timeline, myself, and as far as I'm concerned, #paleoartist Clémence Dupont currently reigns queen over all others with her #ABriefHistoryOfLifeOnEarth. It's the largest single time chart I've ever seen, & it's double-sided, too! One side depicts the evolving earth and biosphere, while the other side has a proportional depiction of the various #eons!
