Tried my hand at some more detailed clay work for a Xenosmilus, but since I don't have a kiln I had to make a silicone mold and cast it in resin to paint. Turns out I still have a lot to learn about resin because the final product didn't quite go as planned. Both look good but I'll always prefer the clay model. 😅

"furries are icky" maybe to you because you're making it a weird sex thing thing however to me furries are not icky because why would i want anyone i know online to picture any concept of a corporeal human form for me when instead they could imagine me as a neon pink sabertooth cat

#that's Xenosmilus hodsonae not any kind of other sabertooth cat #also 'furries are a weird sex thing' ma'am i am asexual do you know how much of humanity does things based off it being a weird sex thing #'furries are a weird sex thing' for some people high heels are a sex thing but you don't accuse everyone who wears heels of being into feet

WELCOME TO THE SABERTOOTH SHOWDOWN.

Saber-toothed (adjective): having long, sharp canine teeth

Admittedly, this is a fairly niche topic, so before actually constructing the bracket and releasing the matchups, I think it’s important to give a background for each taxon. That way, everyone will have at least a little bit of information to base their votes on!

The competitors will be organized at the genus rank, as many are extinct and there simply isn’t a whole lot we can infer about the variation between some species from only their fossils.

Each competitor will have a dedicated post including their overall ecological success, as well as my personal opinion of how they would rank in a tier list format. If you disagree with any of my arguments, please feel free to voice your opinion, as well as argue for the placement you feel is most appropriate for each competitor.

I will tag each background/rank post by the competitor’s genus, family, and class.

CURRENT COMPETITORS

There are currently 22 genera included in the tournament. Organized by family, they are as follows:

Felidae: Homotherium, Megantereon, Xenosmilus, Machairodus, Smilodon, Neofelis, Dinofelis

Nimravidae: Nimravus, Hoplophoneus, Dinictis, Quercylurus

Barbourofelidae: Barbourofelis

Oxyaenidae: Machaeroides

Thylacosmilidae: Thylacosmilus

Gorgonopsidae: Inostrancevia, Lycaenops

Lystrosauridae: Lystrosaurus

Anomocephaloidae: Tiarajudens

Stahleckeriidae: Lisowicia

Cervidae: Hydropotes

Cercopithecidae: Papio

Uintatheriidae: Uintatherium

If you have a genus in mind that you think should be included, please submit it, as well as your personal appraisal of their rank!

actinopterygii, mammalia, sarcopterygii!

actinopterygii: how structured do you like your day to be?

im like, obnoxiously flexible, but i enjoy a bit of structure but not too much? i am fine with structure and i have my night routine but aside from that, as long as i have a slight idea of what im supposed to be doing im cool without much.

mammalia: are your hands usually cold or warm?

absolutely frigid, its the shitty circulation babeee. i don't feel cold tho! simply aware that my hands are ice lol

sarcopterygii: what’s your favorite prehistoric creature?

i am going to apologize in advance for not being able to be normal abt this question: i have So Many and its more of a "fav taxa from this group/particular time period" than absolute favs. that said, i will always have the biggest of soft spots for true saber tooth cats and nimravids, xenosmilus is probably my favorite. i love phenacodus and diacodexus so much too, they are easily my fav willwood fauna (diacodexus teeth are SO pretty and satisfying to find ;-; and i simply love a bizarre maybe-ungulate that refuses to fit in our unecessary taxonomic boxes). love an entelodont as well. and mesonychids!! nothing more terrifying than a carnivorous ungulate.

ALSO i do have a fav trace fossil, scaphichnium (dung beetle brood cells), little multicolored jelly beans my beloved

#my prof describes diacodexis teeth as 'chocolate sweetheart candies' and tbh they do look like them. theyre v cute #thank u for sending stuff!!

Beast Wars AU idea

with my transformer blorbos that I haven't chucked into Beast Wars yet.

---

So as of current I only have one OC in Beast Wars that's been cybertronian-ized to fit another au (*cough cough* the cybertronian au. wowie, who knew). That oc would be Titania, or "Nightraider", who has the capabilities to transform into an Argentavis, a Xenosmilus Hodsonae, a Direwolf, a Titanaboa (haha. Titania-boa), a Kaprosuchus, and a South-American Gray Fox!

But I also came up with something for my other transformer ocs, Quartzstreak, and Ace with the inclusion of my newest additions Breakflash (and Spade), and Deepslate!

I considered Quartzstreak being either a barn or snow owl due to her role as a sniper and referencing it off of Ana from OW. They're incredibly elegant-looking and dangerous! So I thought it'd be perfect for them.

Now, next on the list is Ace! Ace was a bit more difficult to consider since there was an incredibly vast variety of options in the carnivore category to just pick and slap onto Ace as a beast mode-- but then it hit me. "Why not go the opposite direction and aim to give her an herbivore instead of a carnivore?"

So that's exactly what I did! I've decided to choose for her, a tusked wild boar as her beast mode. I was-- also very influenced, by the design-idea of having to draw Ace with tusks in and out of beast mode. Plus, boars by themselves are still dangerous even if they are considered as a prey by a wide range of creatures. I'm even considering to amp up her size in her beast mode to make her appear more intimidating (once I get to the process of making the art for it) and giving her a smaller group of boars that follow her around-- because why not? I think she deserves to have a non-talking travelling group, as a treat :)

Now-- for my newest boyos, Deepslate and Breakflash (and his drone, Spade).

For Breakflash, and also since aquatic animals are an open option for beast modes (thanks, Depthcharge). I've decided to make Breakflash a black marlin! Plus, with his weaponry being mainly a sword, it works out (and also because Breakflash enjoys speed, under any conditions, in the water, air, land, you name it. But for now, we'll limit him to the water)! And his drone buddy could be a remora!

and for Breakflash's boyfriend, Deepslate? hm. None. No alt mode. This man is entirely fueled by strength and spite (and perhaps stupidity). He'll be stubborn for a long while in considering even thinking about getting a beast mode. He just believes COMPLETELY that he could fight any predacon or maximal in beast mode, hand to horns, teeth, fangs, claws, you name it. Even with the limit of Energon exposure. He is just TOO much of a stubborn bastard. But once he does come around to it and gets completely tired of having to pass out mid-fight or anything. He'll go for a Sarcosuchus Imperator. Big croc, for a big bot. Plus, he'd rather stay as close to Breakflash as much as he can, so having an alt mode that can swim would be good enough for him, even if it's not as fast.

Nobody Does Techno-thrillers better. Imagine. Three Xenosmilus. the size of a lion or tiger stalking the residents of the small town of Cody, WY. in my new novel Panspermia.

Xenosmilus used to be the powerful top cat of Florida, so I find it kind of funny that our top cat nowadays is this poor little Puma who's barely surviving the chaotic land Florida has become. I feel bad for our little guys having to fill such big shoes 💔

#Xenosmilus #Puma #Panther #Florida panther #I love them so much my heart hurts #I'd like to believe that if Xenosmilus saw what's become of its home and the Florida panther it'd be sad #Florida used to be so much cooler. We had MAMMOTHS. and GIANT BIRDS and GIANT SLOTHS #Now we have a prehistoric ass named desantis
