Dinovember Day 6: Therizinosaurus with a nest

A male Therizinosaurus wards off something whilst the female; although nervous stays with her eggs, ready to charge and back up the male if it gets too dicey.

Kind did more speculation. Snow geese nest in the arctic in the summer due to it providing a safer habitat for their huge creches with the only real predators they have to deal with are snowy owls and arctic foxes.

Here I thought the same, but desert. Once the eggs hatch they don’t linger and migrate further to find food, water and shelter, all guided by their over-protective parents.

Simon Roy’s Dinosauroids

[T]he crux of this project is based on the following premise, and not an altogether original one. The great dinosaur-killer, the Chicxulub asteroid, misses earth. However, the resulting world is not simply a long-lived cretaceous paradise – the Deccan Traps still flooded the sky with ash and changed the climate and atmosphere, killing off most, if not all, of the great dinosaurs. The survivors of such an event, however, are a handful of small therapods, mammals, birds, and even a few pterosaurs.

Do yourself a favour and read through the rigorous thinking that Simon Roy has put into conjuring the physiology and culture of his Dinosauroids. Amazing work.

It’s a real honor to see my labor of love from art school surface again! Post cretaceous dinosaurs to the max!

This month, on the patreon – a return to the world of the Dinosauroids! I’ll be showing off some of the magical work I produced in secret with the amazing @cmkosemenillustrated
