diagram of a blue dunkleosteus-like organism and an olive green tiktaalik-like organism, viewed from both a 1/4 angle and a frontview angle. both animals have extra spines on their backs, almost resembling three rows of back fins. the tiktaalik-like animal has extra spines on its upper arm and head. left of drawings read "Placoderm-like ancestor of Beoridian tetrapods" below is a set of 3 head and arm bones, showcasing the dunk-like animal transitioning into a more terrestrial form. there is further differentiation of the head from the body, the fin slowly morphs into front leg bones, and a gill arch breaks off from the skull to become the shoulder blade. some spines stay on the skull while some merge into the shoulder blade the bones are marked by color red = skull yellow = lower jaw green = shoulder blue = front limb purple = derived bony plate spikes to the right is a diagram of a more derived shoulder blade, facing down (like on a quadruped) with a medial angle (a proximal part of the shoulder closer to the spine) folding over the dorsal side of the bone. inside this modified angle are two sockets for spines to extend from. the spines, now segmented like fingers, outstretch patagia for flying or gliding the shoulder blade is labeled by color blue = glenoid cavity gold = trapezius hot pink = spinatus lime = medial angle cyan = subscapularis dark magenta = derived spines/false fingers grey = patagium background is pale pink

older sketch of limereptile's torpedo and toast. torpedo is much more rodent-like, with much smaller paws and snout. his tail and ear spikes are more hidden in his fur referenced animals include southern viscacha: torso, ears short tailed chinchilla: head, hind legs long tailed chinchilla: ears, tail toast is also more rodent influenced. his paws are flatter and his head and body are more square. his tail tapers more sharply and his spines arch upward rather than towards the tail's end referenced animals include plains viscacha: face lowland paca: body, legs sphenacodon ferox: tail background is pale pink
