For those who haven't seen it yet: yes we will do the Spec Evo challenge.
Entries can be posted here, on facebook or on Youtube, as long as you can link to a page where it's openly visible.
It can be any medium, digital, traditional, you could even make a sculpture or video of the process (though that would be hard to in-cooperate)
Regarding the Skull crawler: there are several ways to do this. You could try to stick to the film as closely as possible and try to figure out a suitable ancestor and by that a more believable design.
Or you could collect the attributes of the movie monster and look into a lot of clades for animals which would fit that description partly, and could therefore give rise to a skull crawler. This means it don't need to be a reptile, maybe just something someone could confuse to be a reptile on a foggy day.
And of course it's possible to just invent a whole new clade on animals, remember, these are kaijus, they could follow their very own phylogeny. but if you decide to go this way I would like more than one species
Deadline will be in two weeks on 27.03.17 (Mo)
If you don't like the theme of this Spec challenge you don't need to participate, I have a less monstery idea for next time.
Good luck and have fun!

Tetzoocon 2022
In case you didn't know it yet I will be at Tetzoocon 2022, a convention organized by Darren Naish and John Conway in Central London. I will be part of a podium discussion about speculative evolution, take part on discussions about paleoart and will sign a bunch of copies of Mesozoic Art, a book that will be published soon! (but I sign everything you throw at me, even napkins and random pieces of paper, usually with little doodles) In case you want to join us you can sign up here: https://tetzoo.com/convention
Prehistoric Planet!
I now watched the first two epsiodes of Prehisotric Planet, the new documentary series set in the late Cretaceous, available on Apple TV+. Well, what can I say: IT'S FANTASTIC, all negative critique I can give it are minuscule pacing issues in like 3 instances and of course that some segments need to be longer because they are way too cool. ;) Very important: Please don't pirate the series! This is our chance to get more such content in the future if we can show the world that such a format has potential to be successful! You can get a free trial of AppleTV in many countries or by using a VPN! The trial lasts 7 days, so enough time to see the whole thing. People with newer Apple products should also have complete access to the show.
Lost World Spec Challenge
#Spectember is upon us! And so the next Spec Challenge arrives! Last time we explored Skull Island, now we follow the tracks of Prof. Challenger into The Lost World. The lost world, in the book knows as Maple-White Land is a large, isolated plateau, a tepui. It is suited near the three nation triangle of Brazil, Venezuela and Guyana and yes, it is home to some remarkable flora and fauna. But hold your horses! Like with Skull island you will not find here the non-avian dinosaurs you seek, Challenger was a bloody adventurer, don't trust everything you read *! However even for tepui standards the Maple-White Land has a lot of strange and archaic creatures that you might mistake for some retro dinosaurs on first sight. In case you aren't familiar with tepuis I put together a bunch of papers and photos that will show you the wonders of the flora fauna and landscape. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/idynxub2d6fdbfb/AACQyE_ksdJE5yjPMTh3pDUma?dl=0 And I found this book online that you can complete
