This popped up on my Twitter feed and tickled my fancy. I learned a few things!

Mario Lanzas is a fabulous paleoartist. I recommend you take a look at his YouTube channel, he does size comparisons like this but with more groups of creatures as well.

I follow him on instagram. He did some really nice heraldic or medieval style versions of Permian animals a while back, which I thought was pretty neat. This was a great vid though, and I think I'm going to binge the other ones as well. Stuff like this gives me such a better idea of size, then just reading measurements.

Thanks for sharing. I just binged about a dozen of his videos. Made my night.

I suscribe all your words! He's fabulous! I love all his comparisons.

I always watch his videos, usually with the sound off, and had already watched this one too, I like his dinosaur families comparisons and his other group ones too, as well as the time zones, still prefer the Permian and Triassic ones the most, but that's mainly because of the animals.
He also did a great 2 part video where people voted on what they thought was the most iconic prehistoric animal of their country which I really liked.

I do look at his channel from time to time, but indirectly via Twitter. I just checked and the only channel I'm actually subscribed to is Vetusta Morla!
