My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

The 2022 Korean translation of Locked in Time (by Dean Lomax) commissioned me to colourise my 50 greyscale illustrations. "In the wake of colossus" shows some Limusaurus trapped in the muddy track left behind by a Mamenchisaurus, which has attracted a predatory Guanlong.

“All #sauropods were big, but jaw-droppingly long necks didn’t evolve just once. #Mamenchisaurids are important because they pushed the limits on how long a neck can be, and were the first lineage of sauropods to do so.
