Result from the Dinosaur Park Formation #paleostream! This formation was on the wheel from the start and I anticipated and dreaded it at the same time. As one of the most famous dinosaur bearing formations this piece offered several challenges.

The major issue is that we have so much megafauna here. The way we eventually brought at least a few of them into the same frame was by having a migrating herd of Centrosaurus coming by a bunch of hadrosaurs licking salt from steep shorelines in this oxbow lake.

To reduce at least a little the amount of fauna to take into account we limited ourselves to the upper portion of the lower member of this formation. This graphic by discord member Vidax came in handy. The Dinosaur Park formation preserves the remnants of a large river system (more than 100 m wide) that once flew into the WIS. I imagine this piece to take place in the mid portion where the river meanders a lot. One would expect lots of sidearms and oxbow lakes to form here.

This piece wasn't as full as last weeks Las Hoyas but I also didn't want to burden the composition to much by cramming several more herds in here or pile up small fauna in the foreground. As you can see in these size charts by Montana, there is a lot to play with.

I still hope that the general vibe comes across though, the thing I maybe miss the most is a flock of ornithomimosaurs, but what can you do :P

Oh Las Hoyas, what a joy to research and paint you are! Ever since I got myself a book on this locality in 2016 I wanted to do a bigger piece depicting the complex and diverse ecosystem that has been preserved here. While Concavenator and other archosaurs might be the main draw...

for most, for me this locality was always a near perfect window into a lost world just out of reach. For this piece the idea came together surprisingly quickly. While I initially had planned to show a Plicanimimus nesting colony it just didn't want to click.

Eventually I decided that I couldn't just leave Concaventor in the background and instead made it an integral part of the composition. This specimen is resting after a good meal in shallow water. The remains of a Pelicanimimus still floating next to it and attracting a lot of fish, insects and other small scavengers. While other critters go about their day, not bothered by the large predator that sits near motionless. Still enough to have small birds collect feathers from it for nest building purposes.

As you can see in this size chart by Discord member JW there is still a lot that didn't make it in here and also still a lot that hasn't even been published yet! May others pick up where I left off. The Cretaceous wetland has still much to offer!

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology…

Zooms from my 2023 illustration of some Morrison Formation sauropods, from DINOSAUR BEHAVIOUR, by Prof Michael Benton (published by Princeton University Press). Features are Camarasaurus, Diplodocus, two Brachiosaurus, two Dryosaurus and a Stegosaurus skeleton. 50% off this book: https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691244297/dinosaur-behavior?srsltid=AfmBOor26alZAAmDt4MF-7u2Kw53JRvhmaFzfcs9IMn2k1insJGLnx8p

I really like making AUs and one of my favorite genres of AU is taking a character and turning them into a creature to you KNOW the moment I connected the dots of angels being birds and shit:

Something something Mel as this Harpy-type thing

"Oh no, don't you try using 'big wings' on ME, missy."

[gilleshusbando]

could you draw a young Mel playing the piano with Breadhead?
