Back to the skies of the Kem Kem, we find one of the many toothed pterosaurs of the region, Siroccopteryx! This critter has somewhat modestly sized teeth compared to it's cousins, and I've illustrated it here with a speculative crest.

Biker Chaplain done.
This time I went all in on the details: no shortcuts, nothing skipped, even if it took a while.
And I’ve got to say… I’m rarely truly happy with my minis, but looking at this guy, I can’t help grinning from ear to ear. 😁

happy #fossilfriday! bonus: this is barylambda, a pantodont from the paleocene and early eocene. despite looking like a cross between a ground sloth and a wombat, recent evidence suggests that barylambda was a stem-ungulate, related to modern hoofed mammals

happy #fossilfriday! this is whatcheeria, a carnivorous tetrapod from the early carboniferous. although its limbs were stout and robust, they were ill-suited for life on land, and likely spent most of their time in the water

Miec was raised in a noble elven household where tradition mattered more than choice. His world shifted once the family’s head guard began training him and he discovered he was far more capable than anyone expected.
