The Smithsonian had a wonderful exhibit on synapsids before you get to the dinosaurs.

Here's our proud, majestic Dimetrodon



Here's a little diorama they had with a bunch of Demetrodon bros vibing



Hey AARD VARKMAN, what's that on the right there?

Let Larry sculpt one of the exhibits. I know, I know. But he does his best. Just give him something small we can shove in a corner.

I ran that prompt through DALL-E 2 a few times and it has real trouble with dimetrodon heads. Makes sense though because they vary so much in random art

This is an inspiring thread. Here, have six ecologically-plausible colour schemes for dimetrodon, so that he can look his best while standing on a rock and roaring.


And also the blank outline, if anyone else wants to get their paleo-ecology on.

Absolute dimetrodon disrespect ITT, and I will not stand for it

e: I move that dimetrodon be made a Protected Class, given that the anti-synapsid crew have now drawn their knives.

Mods?

They didn't really roar, it was more of a prolonged squeak through mucus-filled passages. So it sounded like a high-pitched bubbly gurgle. Very sad.

This is disappointing but I'm glad we have someone around still who is old enough to recall what the synapsids sounded like.
