Junerassic day 16, rainbow lorikeet. As much as I enjoy seeing these guys in zoos, I did not enjoy spriting one. Shocking, truly.

Junerassic day 15, Einiosaurus procurvicornis. Big shoutout to ADAD for reblogging April's Pachyrhinosaurus just as I was sketching this and making me realize I almost did the same pose for the third time.

Junerassic day 14, silvereye/tauhou. A little guy. Teeny tiny.

Junerassic day 13, Muttaburrasaurus langdoni. Getting a bracing front foot down on the ground to take a closer look.

Junerassic day 12, tawny frogmouth. Developing strong feelings about birds that are just like 3 shades of the same color. You're stunning but also impossible to shade, buddy.

Junerassic day 11, Baryonyx walkeri. I was originally planning on making the mouth orange and the face patterns both shades of blue, but I ended up liking the blue mouth insides better.

Junerassic day 10, Menura tyawanoides. I was already running late (busy day and didn't prep today's art in advance) so of course my tablet decided today was a "no pen pressure" day. Which isn't the worst since I was doing pixel art except no pen pressure means it acts all jittery too. Boo.

Junerassic day 9, Sauropelta edwardsorum. Maybe I would have an easier time drawing ankylosaurids if I didn't insist on giving them the most impossible poses every time.

Junerassic day 8, Haast's eagle. Went way overtime on this one because the wings were fighting me. Could've just made my life a lot easier with a standing pose but nooo.

Junerassic day 7, Shantugosaurus giganteus. Absolute unit of a hadrosaur so they get to fill up almost the entire square.

Junerassic day 6, Somali ostrich. I never know how to render this kind of fuzzy feathery texture.

Junerassic day 5, Nigersaurus taqueti. I love that even small sauropods are taller than a human. Big guys.

Junerassic day 4, Andean cock-of-the-rock. Kept it a little simple because I was running late again, oofie.

Junerassic day 3, Deinocheirus mirificus. For some reason I thought this guy had really big claws like the Therizino, but I guess it doesn't. Huh.

Junerassic day 2, American flamingo. Not 100% satisfied with the colors but there are just too many pinks happening here.

Junerassic day 1, Heterodontosaurus tucki. I'm definitely not late at all shush up now. I finished it before my usual posting time but didn't get it into the queue in time, rip.

Mayozoic day 31, kākāpō. They're fun birds but the markings, augh.
