Prehistoric Life I sculpted myself

[DragonWyrm]

Do not expect too much accuracy from me. This is one of my early forays into sculpting. 

 

Dimetrodon

The pose is probably not accurate and the proportions may be a little wrong. I can always call it a baby or a relative species instead. 

Tully Monster and baby from the Plesiosaur group.

I was on a bit of prehistoric video watching, so I decided to make some creatures. The plesiosaurs is probably either a baby Eoplesiosaurus or Plesiosaurus (the first from the group). The Tully Monster is just a fun creature. I probably should have made the stomach white instead of the back for camouflage purposes.

These are cute little guys! The beginning of a certainly very illustrious sculpting career!

Awesome!

 

And as far as scale goes.

Dimetrodon had several subspecies varying in size.

There were also several herbivorous mammal like reptiles with sail backs.

Edaphosaurus.

Together with Dimetrodon during the Permian Era, way before the Dinosaurs evolved, before the Great Dying.

I love that period, such strange creatures.

Thank you for the replies and kind words. 
I am so happy that my sculpt inspired this conversation on sailed back synapsids! The permian was an interesting period (Suminia)and the following great dying allowed for life to experiment in interesting ways (e.g. Tanystropheus, Sharovipteryx).

One can hope. Experimenting with sculpting a figure from scratch real shows the amount of skills professional sculptors have, it is nothing as simple as moving a figure with green stuff.
