[Balaur]

Okay, I have decided to start an official thread for Age of Mammals (or as I like to say, mammamamals) which actually has some slight changes from before, so yeah.

#1 - Land of the Whales
#2 - Things with Feathers
#3 - The Last Ash
#4 - No More Land
#5 - Last of Kin
#6 - Mammoth Tundra


Land of the Whales


Kutchicetus



Ambulocetus


Pakicetus


The First Claw


The Last Ash

No More Land

Last of Kin

Ice Age Giants


The Haughton Formation was too much of a pain in the posterior to find info on and so unfourtunentally I cut out Puijilia  .

[Yutyrannus]

Oh, that sucks, well at least I still have a seal

[Balaur]

Yep, and next time I'll make sure to steal your seals.

[Yutyrannus]

Yep, and next time I'll make sure to steal your seals.

Well, technically we have different seals

[Balaur]

So, my first drawing is done. Although honestly, I am reusing some drawings that just fit in, this included. I'll post new pictures later. Anyways, my Proailurus for the third episode.




EDIT: I now have added Eusmilus I drew a few weeks ago.

[Yutyrannus]

Cool! I saw the Proailurus on your deviantart page a while ago! Keep up the good work !

[Balaur]

Thank you!

[Yutyrannus]

Your welcome

[Concavenator]

Will you do a Basilosaurus and a Megatheirum? 

[Balaur]

Probably not as my stories won't have them.

[Balaur]

Expect a gastornithid from the first episode up soon.

[Balaur]

So, to avoid cutting out any more episodes, I am officially annoucning my very first special for my Age of... series as I am calling it now. It is two episodes, and It is titled Mammal's Rulers. Here is the creature list.

Episode 2 - Land Down Under

[Yutyrannus]

Cool! It's not the first special though,  remember The Greatest Migrations.

[Balaur]

Damn! How did I forget that? You're right! I will weasel my way out and say that it is the first special for Age of Mammals, I do have a second special in the works.

[Yutyrannus]

What about the other episodes ? Also, didn't you used to have Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni?

[Balaur]

Crocodylus anthropophagus is actually about as big as Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni, but there is dirrect evidence it fed on early hominids.

The cave bear episode is clinging on. I may cut it. Probably won't but be prepared.

[Yutyrannus]

Okay. Also when are you going to post pictures for Age of Conquering?

[Balaur]

Soon. I have added Shivatherium for the fifth episode.

[Yutyrannus]

Also, when you draw Barbourofelis and Megantereon, I suggest getting pictures of live big cats (I suggest a tiger for Barbourofelis and a Leopard for Megantereon), illustrating from those and then going back to edit the proportions and musculature to match the species you are drawing. This should get a very good result and will be an easier way to illustrate prehistoric feliformes. This is what I will be trying for my Xenosmilus, Dinictis, and Hoplophoneus. Good luck on your drawings !
