The Black Flame, Nu Udra! The only member of a new classification of Monster, the Cephalopods, and is the Apex of the Oilwell Basin! She was a challenge, but very fun to do!

I tried to make a modernized style render of #MonsterHunter 's Violent Saw Wyvern: Anorupatisu, one of my favorite Frontier monsters, with some of my own small changes to the overall design. Hope to see him and his map in a game someday. #MonsterHunterWilds #MHWilds

Carpathospinosus propheticus is a prehistoric species of spikefish found in Polish rocks dating to the Oligocene. It lived in what was the late Tethys Sea, and was related to the Triacanthodinae, a subfamily that contains most extant spikefish.

Today, I had the honor of listening to and getting to meet Neil Shubin, one of the co-discoverers of Tiktaalik roseae!! While listening to the talk, I took the opportunity to learn about its unique bone structure and illustrated this sketch! Even got it signed!

"Reigning Titan"
The largest marine reptile currently known, Ichthyotitan is a shastasaurid ichthyosaur from the Late Triassic. Known from 2 partial lower jaw bones, indicate that it may have grown up to 82 ft/25m or even larger, and it fed on larger prey, hunting like orcas.

"Lord of the Lake"
Gaiasia jennyae is the largest known genus of stem-tetrapod that has digits. Found from Namibian rocks dating to the early Permian, it habitated in cold lakes in Southern Gondwana as an apex predator, hunting fish and other tetrapods.

At last, I am pleased to share with y'all paleoart commissioned by William Jude Hart for their presentation: The Devonian Red Beds!
Featuring several Devonian fish such as Bothriolepis, Turrisaspis, Holoptychius, Gyracanthus, and a large rhizodont.

Once again I bring this up. If you wish to continue to follow for paleoart/sci-comm/marine bio/spec-evo related art, they will now exclusively be over there. This account is more for anything un-scientific and creative.
Please consider following me on my alternate as well. A lot more of my science illustration will be here.

Well this explains why Angel sharks are one of the most threatened shark species: genetics show very isolated populations despite neighbouring islands, with deep oceans likely acting as barriers to gene transfer. Means protecting just one population won't work

The next ecosystem of my MH series takes us to a region marked by vast intertidal zones, where cave networks and tidepools appear and disappear by the hour. Here, monsters adapt to these rapid daily changes. Below will be the five endemic species to this habitat.

So, you wanted to see fanmade Monster Hunter, so I bring to you some revived concepts I had for a fan-game. The first batch here belong to an island, and dwell in a costal habitat made of mangroves and beaches.

So I rediscovered a long-cancelled project of mine that I actually had plans to make a webtoon out of in high school: PnGA.Online, which was basically...SAO but The Isle. Spent, like, 2-ish years on it before dropping it because it became too big for me. Also because COVID.

Hey Skyfolks! Just a reminder: there is no algorithm on Bsky, so us artists and creators rely heavily on RTs to get our work out there. If you see a post from an artist or creator that you like, please RT generously! It helps us a lot ❤️ Thank you!

For #SharkWeek2024, the shark of choice is Dracopristis hoffmanorum (Hoffman’s dragon shark), or as it’s more commonly known, the “Godzilla shark”. Here we see a female, hiding on the seafloor of a shallow lagoon at night from a hungry Glikmanius, amongst some crinoids.

Art of the new reconstruction to the saber-sorry, spiketooth salmon (Oncorhynchus rastrosus), now as a planktivorous salmonid who develop their signature spikes to dig nests and defend against predators. Both males and females have these teeth too, with males' being bigger!

A sketch of one of the most bizarre chondrichthyans, Aquilolamna milarcae, or the eagle shark, from Late Cretaceous Mexico. Originally assigned as a lamniform (related to great whites and makos), it's now uncertain of this animal's placement.

Cretoxyrhina, also known as the Ginsu shark, is a genus of lamniform shark from the mid-late Cretaceous found worldwide, but is famously known from the Western Interior Seaway. As a top-order carnivore, it likely fed on large fish, other sharks, and large marine reptiles.
