This was supposed look different, but I really loved the layout and the silhouettes, so that's what I went with.
This isn't supposed to be any specific gorgonopsid, and the tree is some unspecified early conifer. I have no idea if there were any plants that would grow on trees and hang down like this, but it looks cool, so...

Fun fact: I do things other than just extinct deer, pinky promise. I'm still not completely happy with the fur and antlers, and I keep tweaking the model, and so I keep getting *ideas*, and so here we are.
Where is he running to? No idea, but he seems to be in a hurry.
Could use more contrast, but that was messing with the misty look, and I didn't add 20 mins to render time for nothing.

Ok, so there was no cheese in mesozoic, but like that's going to stop a determined stem-mammal.
I'm really happy with this model, and I have two pieces with it that I'm still working on.
Castorocauda lutrasimilis was a Middle to Late Jurassic mammaliaform (so, not yet a mammal, but very close) from what is now China. It was semi-aquatic, fed on fish and other small critters, had a beaver-like tail and platypus-like venom spurs on its ankles. It's also the oldest direct evidence of fur in synapsids, so it was most definitely fluffy.Ok, so there was no cheese in mesozoic, but like that's going to stop a determined stem-mammal.

I guess I'm going to introduce myself to the community: hi, I'm (mostly) a paleoartist who's interested in synapsids, so mammals and our relatives/ancestors. And sometimes I just make art of whatever the hamster council that runs my brain comes up with.
I work in 3d and 2d, thought 3d has been my main focus lately.
I'm horrible at actually finishing pieces, and am drowning in WIPs.
I really hope this site takes off, and wish the creators success. We really need a place where we can show our art without worrying about some corporate dorks ruining things for the rest of us.I guess I'm going to introduce myself to the community: hi, I'm (mostly) a paleoartist who's interested in synapsids, so mammals and our relatives/ancestors.

Blender was being laggy, so I doodled this while waiting for it to start working again.
Drawn on my secondhand phone, with a finger, in a free app. Partially because I was bored, but partially because the argument of some ai bros, that, apparently, to make art you need expensive stuff, and so using stolen art to frankenstein an image together and pass off as your own is ok, won't leave my brain, and is annoying beyond belief.
The deer is based on megaloceros, but isn't really supposed to be one, I just love their antlers.Blender was being laggy, so I doodled this while waiting for it to start working again.

It's the newly described Eocene whale from Peru, with one of the weirdest vertebrae you'll ever see. As of right now it's quite fragmentary, but it's been estimated to have been between 17 and 20m in length, and could've possibly exceeded the blue whale in weight, due to its very heavy, dense bones.
I'm not sure if I didn't make it too skinny, but oh well.

Today, 29th of November 2022, is the 100th anniversary of the formal description of Inostrancevia, a species of gorgonopsid. I painted this to commemorate the occasion.
Gorgonopsids were predators with saber-like canines, long before it was cool.
The one in this painting is Inostrancevia alexandri, a species that reached about 3m in length with the skull about 50cm long.
I really like this one.

This is still a work in progress. Almost finished, but not quite. But, since I'm not entirely sure when I'm going to get back to it, I've decided to upload the WIP for now.
Castorocauda lutrasimilis was a Middle to Late Jurassic mammaliaform - an almost mammal, but just not quite there yet. Its fossil is the oldest direct evidence of fur in synapsids.
It had a beaver-like tail, and a platypus-like venom spurs on its ankles, and it fed on fish like an otter.
Those three are just napping, getting some rest is important, even during the mesozoic.This is still a work in progress. Almost finished, but not quite.

This is a perfect example of a drawing that has a mind of its own. I _was_ in a mood for experimentation when making this, but what I had in mind was a whole lot different than what came out in the end.
My brain really just went: "hey, you know what we haven't done in a long while? Melting deer!" and here we are.
I love how he turned out.

Is this finished? No it's not. Will it ever be? Unlikely. Am I posting it anyway? Yes, yes I am.
I loved painting the turban, which is shocking because drapery isn't exactly one of my favourite things.
Also, no second nostril for this guy, because I just couldn't get it to not be unbearably wonky.

You _will_ learn how to fly if there's even a single doe around. As for landing, you'll have to figure it out yourself.
For those who don't know: this is Megaloceros giganteus, a species of giant Pleistocene deer related to fallow deer. It could reach up to 2.1m in height at the shoulders, and its antlers could weight up to 40kg and span 3.65m from tip to tip. They also would spend most of their time in the open, and not in the forest, but this doesn't mean they wouldn't pass through it from time to time.
This render is inspired by the opening shot of the exile of the gods music video by eluveitie, of all things.

Just a gorgonopsid enjoying her evening with a teeny tiny friend perching on her nose.
I wanted the insect to be bigger, but unfortunately, everything that I could find that was from the right location and time period was tiny and fragmentary, so that's what I had to go with.
