Freak of The Week: Gorgonopsids!
Added 2024-11-04 21:03:06 +0000 UTCGood Monday my Garfields!! I am trying not to be full of existential dread today! I hope the same for you.
This week's freak is our first extinct friend!! Da clade was suggested by Mirarevias, thank you very much!! Of course, feel free to request other paleo critters if you so desire! I get excited to make paleo art because I think we're severely lacking in cartoony renditions, and they're always depicted as screaming, yelling, biting, when irl animals are often funny and silly...So of course I had to draw our doofy relative sleeping like a floppy basset hound... its my right as an artist!

I looove your paleo art!! ❤️❤️❤️ I’m sure you already have it on a list from your first post, but while we’re on the topic of synapsids, I’m going to give another vote for a Lil Tunny cotylorhynchus!

2024-11-05 18:42:56 +0000 UTCMan I love gorgonopsids, though I think Andrewsarchus & hyenodon(?) beat it! Love your depiction of them—jowels are adorable on those deadly maws!

2024-11-05 00:22:03 +0000 UTCfantastic. is there any evidence for or against these guys having big floppy basset hound ears also, that would be a fun concept.

2024-11-04 22:17:04 +0000 UTCGorgonopsids are my favorite extinct synopsids, and possibly my favorite synopsids all around (take that modern day mammels!) I adore the way you've depected them so much, ILU for them 💜💜💜
