Inception!

Journal Entry: Sun Sep 30, 2007, 9:11 PM

Tired of Tyrannosaurus? Sick of Smilodon? Craving weird, bizarre, and/or obscure prehistoric organisms?
We've got the solution for you![link] No, this time seriously!
~Machaeroides88 and =avancna have founded a new deviantART Club that caters to obscure and arcane prehistoric animals. You won't find "popular" critters such as Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Pterodactylus, Stegosaurus, Velociraptor, Pteranodon, Deinonychus, Elasmosaurus, Dunkleosteus, or Dimetrodon here, as we regard such subjects as passé, bordering on trite (our apologies to those who hold these particular genera in high regard).
We intend to make an effort to focus on lesser known creatures, such as Stahleckeria potens, Keratocephalus moloch, Shokawa ikoi, Opabinia regalis, Pseudopalatus andersoni, or Astrapotherium magnus, for example. The organisms can be either plant or animal.
Anyone interested is free to join, and please inquire about available club positions!

Rules:

1) To Join: Simply send a note to us with the subject, "join" and watch the club. Putting the avatar link in your journal is optional. You will then be accepted as a member.

2) Submission: Send a note to us with the subject, "Submit" or "Submission" and a link to your deviation. We will accept a limit of 3 deviations per member and administrator, per week. You must submit obscure/lesser known extinct organism paleo-art, or at least something relevant to the subject. This club will not accept any famous fossil artwork, to say the least. Members are welcome to send us a deviation at any time of the day.

3) To become an administrator, send the club a note with the subject, "Office". Tell us briefly in the note why you think you may want this job. Once accepted, we will give you the password.

Does the Australian dinosaur Kakuru count as obscure?

If you need any references, I'll see what I can dig up.

I am preparing my submission: it involves a lizard that is poisonous and lived in mongolia.

I may think about it. My art has had little success lately.

Great group, there is a sore need for quality palaeo art describing lesser-known organisms. Cheers!
