There‘s more than just pterosaurs that call this habitat home. Take a closer look - how many creatures can you find?

New at #Patreon: discussion of this scene of Sinosauropteryx waiting out a feeding Yutyrannus for carcass access. Or - hold on - are they waiting for their parent to feed them? Behold, the compsognathid identity dispute, now #paleoart flavoured! #sciart #dinosaurs

Because I'm a lazy, lazy man, I'm copying text from the start of my Patreon post that describes this scene. If you want to read the rest of the discussion, you need to visit https://www.patreon.com/posts/132334586 (I may be lazy, but I'm not stupid. OK, not _that_ stupid.)

"It's nighttime in Early Cretaceous China, in the part of the world that will eventually be recorded as the Yixian Formation. A light dusting of snow covers the winter ground, and only the coniferous trees retain their leaves. The light of a full moon spreads through the misty sky, obscuring distant mountains but illuminating a large dinosaurian predator, Yutyrannus. It is consuming the bloodied remains of a small dinosaur that, from the silhouette, looks to have been a Psittacosaurus. Quietly surrounding the carnivore is a group of eight smaller dinosaurs: compsognathids. Their small size, long, stripy brown tails and facial masks betray them as Sinosauropteryx. They appear to be congregating in the hope of getting access to the Psittacosaurus carcass, some peering around the larger dinosaur at a respectful distance to identify pilferable morsels. The Yutyrannus is ten times their length and towers above them: surely it's best to wait until it's finished? Unless... wait: are these Sinosauropteryx enterprising opportunists, patiently waiting for the larger predator to have their fill? Or are they juveniles waiting for their parent – a tyrannosauroid – to finish with the carcass before they can have access, or even for it to provision them with food? What the heck has actually been depicted here?"

The caption says what it says. This is from my Instagram.

The drawings start at £20 but are priced based on complexity. Once we reach a consensus on the drawing and price, we'll go back and forth on the drawing process until you're satisfied. At this point, you'll wire the money and recieve the drawing.

Payment method is flexible.
