I'm sticking with the marine reptile painting theme for Fossil Friday. Here's an old acrylic painting of #Liopleurodon and #Metriorhynchus, called "Killing Breach".

It's #FossilFriday!

Here are some zooms into my "Deep Blue Buffet" painting (Part 1), for The Etches Collection. It features a bunch of species from the Late Jurassic Kimmeridge Clay: a dead sauropod, "The #SeaRex" (probably #Pliosaurus), #Hybodus, #Hypsocormus, #Metriorhynchus, #Aspidorhynchus, and lots of #Allothrissops

The fossilised lower jaw of a sea 'croc', Metriorhynchus, from the Jurassic Oxford Clay of the UK. If you want to see it for yourself, this specimen is now on show in the 'Snappy Families' display case in our 'Discovering Dinosaurs' gallery.

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

In 2011 I created a bunch of models for the Leicester New Walk Museum. Here is the scale model of the marine crocodile, Metriorhynchus (the leathery skin armour was unwise, it is too easy to interpret as scutes).
