Next Up On The Unicorn Tree, We Have An, As Of Now, Unnamed Species, Descended From The Unoceratherium

Next up on the unicorn tree, we have an, as of now, unnamed species, descended from the unoceratherium (2 image). This species was more adapted to open grasslands than it's predecessors and the two last lines of unicorns, both its descendants, or very close relatives. The previously three hoofed feet are now mainly monodactylous, it's other digits being lifted off the ground, like the artiodactyle posterially positioned toes. It's horned is larger, slightly curved, and is now "twisted" in a corkscrew manner. This species likely went extinct from preassure by climate, hunting, and being out competed by bovids and cervids, and also the other equids like the larger wild horse. . This design is based more off on the split from the equid family while they still had 3-toed hooves and had moved into open grasslands, than the very early split from the forest dwelling ancestors mentioned in my previous post. #art #artist #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #fantasyart #unicorn #fantasyscience #fantasy #fantasticbeasts #conceptart #creaturedesign #creaturedesigner #creatureart #wip #workinprogress #sketchbook #sketch #drawing #magicalbeast #magicalcreature https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Kn3hsHaC2/?igshid=ooqk5x5q2by5

Still a wip, but here is a long promised update on the kelenken sculpt 2.0. Been working on it on and off for a while now, and i keep running into problems with it. I think the glue in the masking tape i foolishly tried to use again (after learning not to while making the platybelodon), has been deteriorating the bulk layer of clay, and the the bulk layer has been drying out and cracking up the outer layer😓 so much back and forth and so much material.. I'm doubting wether or not to double down and get this one right, or restart. #miniature #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #sculptor #sculpture #supersculpy #paleoart #terrorbird #art #artist #jurassicpark #jurassicworld #dinosaurart #iceage #iceageanimal #kelenken #kelenkenguillermoi #arksurvival #wip #workinprogress #dinosaur #diorama #miniatures #phorusrachid #phorusrhacos https://www.instagram.com/p/B4V1ga1lTgo/?igshid=1a8kxuc8in90m

Future post... tease? I've worked on the natural, and unnatural, origin of the unicorn for a personal project of mine that I should really work more on (other than frantically writing notes at 3 in the morning) so I can share more creature designs and beastiary entries. Here's a small collage of some headshots, in no particular order, of the majeatic beasties coming up. Fellow world builders..what to do if the only name you have for a world is specific to ONE (1) of the many stories set in said world? #art #artist #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #fantasyart #conceptual #conceptart #unicorn #speculativeevolution #specevo #fantasyscience #fantasycreature #fantasticbeasts #fantasyartist https://www.instagram.com/p/B33_vYiFXGu/?igshid=d9vk0gh7r46o
