Some Miocene animal sketches... I had to use lots of references (I still kinda suck at drawing mammals:< ).
1. Osteodontornis
2. Deinotherium
3. Hyaenodons fighting over a piece of meat D:
4. Meiolania (it's a turtle, but looks like a glyptodontid a bit)
5. Borhyaena
6. Blastomeryx (a sabre-toothed deer, wasn't a carnivore tho;))
7. Gomphotherium
8. Kelenken chasing some random notoungulates(?). Terror birds are so cool!:love:

Marvellous! Especially Deinotherines look interesting due to their short proboscis, the "tapir elephants".

Cheers

I have a skull replica of the Chinese Water Deer, though it obviously is not the same one you have drawn here, it is a very good rendering of what they looked like.
FYI-For being sketches, the mammals do not "kinda suck", they look very very nice. :)

Miocene was much more interesting than this boring holocene!
