This is my interpretation of small anomodont Venyukoviid Suminia. Since venjukoviids probably possesed a kind of kreatinous beak base in combination with teeth I draw this animal in the same way. The eye sockets of Suminia were huge, so the eyes were big as well, and the jaw muscles were very strong. It fed on horestails and other permian plants growing in swamps.

"It's a very basal therapsid as well! It looks like it could have nocturnal vision with such large eye sockets. I like your artist's reconstruction of this peticular venjukoviamorph. It's pretty realistic looking!"
Thanks for the comment and giving more information about this funny looking animal. The image actually has not been finished yet, I plan to add some hair and adjusting details.
Suminia was the reason why I started drawing terapsids!
Yes! (see Rybczynski, N. and Robert R. Reisz, Earliest evidence for efficient oral processing in a terrestrial herbivore, Nature 411, 684-687(7 June 2001))
First off, everyone here at deviantART would like to say THANK YOU!!! We have received an overwhelming amount of enthusiasm for the launch of version 6 and believe that this has been our best-received launch to date.
You might even be one hell of a profesional, but if you don't SHOW it and PROVE it, how will everyone know? These facts are important not only when you are looking for a job, but in any situation when you wish to showcase your work. I decided to share a few guidelines that might help you give the best of yourself and help you be a better profesional.
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment. She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More
