A scene I did of Miocene Amazonia for a commission: an early Iniid River dolphin catches a frog right before a greedy arapaima does while Stirtonia-like monkeys hoop and holler at the commotion! Pretty interesting concept I must say. 🇧🇷

Some tideous studies for an upcoming illustration of a certain fragmentary Wakaleo Species, perhaps the youngest of them...
