Blue Stalking Kryptops Sketch + Red Kryptops

Another sketch of a scene from a story I did a bit of work on, this is the same design for the kryptops I drew before but stalking the main character through the grass. Under that is the red and grey Kryptops design I didn't realize I've never even posted to this point. She's also one of the dinosaurus that appears in the story.

A dinosaur tooth, possibly a Kryptops palaios from the Elrhaz Formation in Gadoufaoua, Niger. Although this type of abelisaurid teeth is often labeled as Kryptops, the morphology does not quite match the holotype. The shape of the serrations in particular are not hooked-shaped, though they could have been simply been worn down as is common with teeth from the Elrhaz Formation. The teeth of Kryptops is comparable to the younger Rugops primus, at least, from what is currently known of its dentition.

Happy Dinosaur Day: Eocarcharia is a genus of carcharodontosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived in what is now North Africa during the Aptian and Albian stages of the early cretaceous period some 125 to 112 mya. The holotype specimen of eocarcharia consisting of a partial skull was uncovered in the year 2000 during an expedition to the Elrhaz formation led by University of Chicago paleontologist Paul Sereno. These remains where found alongside the remains of an abelisaurid named Kryptops. Yet in wouldn’t be until 2008 that the animal would be formally named and described by Dr. Sereno and Dr. Brusatte. Since then some additional post cranial remains have been recovered/ reassigned from other genuses. The type and only species is Eocarcharia dinops which roughly translates to dawn shark with fierce eyes, with the specific name being in reference to the fact that Eocarcharia’s brow is swollen into a massive band of bone, giving it a menacing glare. Reaching roughly 19 to 26ft (6-8m) in length and 2,200 to 4,400lbs (1,000 to 2,000kgs) in weight, Eocarcharia would have been one of the largest predators of its environment. Likely using its sharp blade like teeth to dispatch various prey in the form of the sauropods, ornithopods, crocodiliomorphs, and smaller theropods it shared its environment with.

Would you be able to do a Kryptops for the paleopixels series? I know its pretty obscure but it's my favourite dinosaur :D

I've never heard of this guy but they are so neat!

This is part of an ongoing series I'm doing called Paleo Pixels! If you wanna leave a suggestion for a paleo creature to draw feel free to send in an ask though it might take me a bit to get to yours!
