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".

This weeks #Lego #FossilFriday is #Liopleurodon.
In 1841 a fragmentary specimen was found and named Thaumatosaurus. But due to the lack of diagnostic features its unclear if this is a Liopleurodon.
In 1852, Johann Andreas Wagner published a description of a large plesiosaur tooth from Bavaria and assigned it to Pliosaurus giganteus. But due to this name being used already, it was deemed invalid
In 1873, Henri Emile Sauvage coined the name Liopleurodon, reassigning the fossil to that name.

Liopleurodon (Painted) (British Museum of Natural History by Invicta)
Whenever a line of toys gets a complete set of reviews on the Dinosaur Toy Blog, I consider it a milestone. This has happened many times over the years and in my opinion, it heightens the value of the blog and its usefulness as a resource. Although YouTube reviews have added stiff competition over the last few years how many channels can claim to have reviewed the entire Carnegie, Battat, or […]

Paleoartist @BobNicholls kneels at his Liopleurodon shrine. All hail pliosaurs!
He was also touching up the paintwork while he was down there.

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
Today I'll post the last photos from my life-size Liopleurodon head sculpt (2017). This photo was taken on the day of delivery, to Wollaton Hall Museum, Nottingham, during the Dinosaurs of China exhibition. On the right is marine reptile expert palaeontologist, Dr Adam Smith.
