Some more lizards! (Patreon)

Hi everyone, thanks as always for your support and I hope you've enjoyed seeing things come together here across 2018. 2019 needs to see the completion of the reptile chapter of The Big Book - I'm well behind due to other work :(

So far this year I've managed to add a fair amount on lizards, and I've just drawn a few as well. Here are the newest: Lanthanotus (Bornean earless monitor) and a very speculative reconstruction of the Jurassic-Cretaceous skink-like Paramacellodus. Both are needed for montages, cladograms and so on.

The Lanthanotus was drawn from photos. Paramacellodus was assumed to be superficially skink-like, and this guided most ideas on its overall form and colouration. The shape of the head was based on what's known of the skull of this lizard. I think it worked out ok.

More lizards to come, including snakes.
