Odd art, fleshing out combinations, and dinosaur sharks

 Odd art, fleshing out combinations, and dinosaur sharks

Redid my older drawing of the Megalodon, especially considering it is no longer considered just a large great white shark.  Megalodons now have their own family which means 'megateeth'. As a result I redrew the monster shark, taking a guess at coloration, and guessing a few other details, given teeth and latest research. That reseign shows here:

among other spots.

I also drew up an ancient freshwater shark, a true river monster of the distant past, the Xenacanthus. This beast was only around 4 feet or so, but had a giant spike on its head, and prowled through the Devonian to Triassic times.  I again took some liberty with coloration, guessing that a swamp or river shark would likely be colored much like a bowfin or gar.

then made some interesting combo patterns for the paleontologist or dino lover at home:

the added several more snappers and the like, including Emperor snappers (juvenille):

Then a combo like so:

note that I also put all my combat-fishing gear on the design by humans site also:

Suggested adds and some others

Suggested adds and some others

As I noted before I do take suggestions, and draw them up when I get a chance (i.e. night, weekends, off days, or really boring meetings...)

Added the Clown Knifefish (Featherback) which is native to SE Asia, but is loose in south Florida Canals (wanted to catch one on the fly for a while, seen some near Miami).

Also by request added the Ram (Butterfly) Cichlid, which took a while due to deep details.

Also added a common turtle that is in the wild  around the Midwest (if you see these, lots of fish are also nearby) and also a common pet: Map Turtles, and the colorful Florida Cooter Turtle.

All in Spoonflower in a few weeks, but in Cafepress now.

More as I think of them....

Tight lines and Fair Seas,
