Kronosaurus Headbust sketch. My first non dinosaur paleoart for 2026. (Based from Baols and Dead Sound's design for reference) Commonly regarded as the top apex predator of the Eromanga Sea of the Cretaceous period, this massive marine reptiles was the most powerful predator in the oceans of what's now the land down under. They're the ultimate scourge of the oceans during the Mesozoic period. They're not dinosaurs mind you, but more closely related to pleisosaurids which pilosaurids such as Kronosaurus feasted on for food.

A headbust sketch of the giant pilosaurid Kronosaurus.

Arguably considered the most terrifying and largest of the pilosaurids with powerful jaws and conical teeth to help crush its prey.

A male Archelon gracefully swims in the Western Interior Seaway, commonly regarded as Hell's Aquarium in what will become South Dakota, 80 million years ago. There are jellyfish and ammonites swimming in the background to give the environment more personality. (Credit to the drawing base of Archelon goes to NixDrawsStuff)

Archelon.

One of the largest prehistoric sea turtles resembling a modern day leatherback sea turtle that lived during the oceans of the late Cretaceous.

A male Carnotaurus takes a stroll in the dawn of the Patagonian conifer forest, some 70 million years ago in the La Colonia Formation. (Design based on Dead Sound’s Sauria from the first episode, Blood for Blood)

Carnotaurus.

One of South America’s most iconic abeilsaurid dinosaurs with their famous horns on their head, hence their name means “meat eating bull.”

#ArtistOnBlueSky #AS05 #Dinosaurs #MesozoicLife #Paleoart #DigitalArt

WIP sneak peak of an upcoming dinosaur art piece. Mostly just the horns and eye here so far.

WIP of a new dinosaur art for the day:

This iconic abelisaurid is famous for their two horns on their head, hence their name that means “meat eating bull” and was first introduced in 1985.

A male Lambeosaurus casually strolls around in what’s now Canada’s Dinosaur Park Formation in the Late Cretaceous, with a beautiful sunrise and flowers blooming signaling the start of spring. (Design based on Dead Sound’s Dinosauria design of Lambeosaurus of “A More Ancient Spring.” His animations of dinosaurs are genuinely good and I highly recommend you guys watch him if you haven’t!)

Lambeosaurus.

One of the most recognizable hadrosaurs of Canada’s Dinosaur Park Formation, to which males have distinctive crests for display to females.

A male Styracosaurus walks along the floodplains of what’s now Alberta, Canada, in the Late Cretaceous, 75 million years ago. (Body based on Path of Titans with color patterns inspired from Prehistoric Kingdom)

Styracosaurus.

One of the most striking ceratopsians with spikes on their frill and a large horn on their heads, found in Canada’s Dinosaur Park Formation, and traveled in herds based on bonebeds where fossils were found.

#ArtistOnBlueSky #AS05 #Dinosaurs #MesozoicLife #Paleoart #DigitalArt

WIP screenshot of my upcoming dinosaur art, set to be finished sometime.

Hint: This ceratopsian dinosaur was known for their striking set of spikes and large facial horn on their frills.

A male Therizinosaurus is taking a stroll at dusk, possibly looking for a place to rest itself after a very long day. (Body based on Gabriel Ugueto and colors based on Prior Extinction)

Therizinosaurus.

The scythe lizard from Mongolia, they’re famous for their huge claws, to which they are used for defense, courtship displays, or tools to help them to reach leaves on trees.

A male Cryodrakon wanders in the winters of Dinosaur Park Formation in Alberta, Canada, 75 million years ago in the Cretaceous. (Body based on Crisitan Bacchetta and colors based on Subjectively’s paleoart)

Cryodrakon.

A recently discovered azhdarchid pterosaur only found back in 2019 from Alberta in Canada, roughly 33 ft in length.

To think it reached the same size as the famous Quetzalcoatlus would be a huge understatement.

A male Hesperornis dives in the water, in search of fish where they feast on for their diet. (Art based on Prehistoric Planet’s Hesperornis design)

Hesperornis.

A flightless commorant bird that can’t fly but was capable of being a good swimmer in the oceans of the Late Cretaceous, thanks to their powerful hind legs.

(Art made back in 2023)

A Sinosauropteryx strikes a pose running in style in China during the Early Cretaceous. (Body based on Gabriel Ugueto)

Sinosauropteryx.

One of the first dinosaurs discovered in China with both evidence of colors and feathers in 1996, making it one of the first fully feathered dinosaurs to be discovered.

A male Baryonyx idly stands with a fish he caught from the river, somewhere in England about 128 million years ago in the Early Cretaceous. (Body based from Gabriel Ugueto)

Baryonyx.

A European spinosaurid dinosaur that is the first dinosaur with evidence of a piscivorous diet, meaning, it ate fish.

It’s also my first dino art of March which is fitting at the very least.

So, due to receiving constructive criticism on Discord, I ended up having to redo my Utahraptor art for Thursday.

Hope you guys don’t mind the color change regardless!

A large male Cretoxyrhina swims in the Western Interior Seaway of the Late Cretaceous, about 82 million years ago. It’s design is based on a tiger shark, with elements of the modern great white left preserved in its design here. (Art made back in March 2024)

Cretoxyrhina.

Better known as the Ginsu Shark.

The great white shark of the Cretaceous oceans, these large mackerel sharks were equipped with razor sharp teeth reminiscent of ginsu knives.

A male Postosuchus idly walks around the Triassic dawn, ready to start his day after taking a rest. (Body and colors based on Gabriel Ugueto’s paleoart of Postosuchus)

Postosuchus.

One of the most iconic rauisuchian archosaurs, which aren’t dinosaurs, but are related to crocodiles. Roughly the size of a lion, these predators dominated the Late Triassic, around the same time dinosaurs first evolved.

#ArtistOnBlueSky #AS05 #Paleoart #MesozoicLife #DigitalArt

A male Elasmosaurus cruises along the oceans of the Late Cretaceous, using it’s paddle-like flippers to help them propel through the water.

Elasmosaurus.

One of the most famous long-necked plesiosaurs with its streamlined body, short tail with flukes, small head, and an extremely long neck that gives them their name.

#ArtistOnBlueSky #AS05 #DigitalArt #Paleoart #MesozoicLife

A male Pteranodon in a quadrupedal position, idly standing with it’s striking colors as the males are known for their bright colors while the females display much more duller colors like most birds in real life. (Colors inspired from Mario Lanzas and Mark Witton, and body based on Teolorenzo from Instagram)

Pteranodon.

North America’s most iconic pterosaur of the Cretaceous, to which males had striking crests for dominance and display, while the females had smaller crests, just like modern birds today.

#ArtistOnBlueSky #AS05 #Paleoart #MesozoicLife #DigitalArt

A screenshot of a pterosaur’s crest.

A screenshot of one of my paleoarts that I recently made that I’ll reveal tomorrow.

It’s a crest of one of the most iconic pterosaurs found in North America, to which it lived in the Late Cretaceous.

#ArtistOnBlueSky #AS05 #Paleoart #MesozoicLife #DigitalArt

Globidens.

A mosasaur known for their well rounded globe-like teeth that gives it their name, these mosasaurs feasted on ammonites, which were prehistoric mollusks that coexisted with this mosasaur in the ancient oceans.

#ArtistOnBlueSky #AS05 #Paleoart #MesozoicLife #DigitalArt

A huge male Mosasaurus cruises along the oceans of the Western Interior Seaway, idly exploring in search of food, or a place to rest. (Art made back in February of last year, now redrawn for February 2025)

Mosasaurus.

Arguably known as the best known of the Mosasaurs. They aren’t dinosaurs, but they are in fact related to monitor lizards and snakes, and lived in the seas of the Late Cretaceous, where it was the top predator for their time.

A male Hatzegopteryx begins to make a courting display, which is speculated to help attract females. (Design based from Prehistoric Planet)

Hatzegopteryx.

15 feet tall and a wingspan of 30 feet, this massive azhdarchid pterosaur was the apex predator of Hațeg Island, an ancient island that’s now modern day Romania in the Late Creatceous.
