It would seem these monsters are men. […] And it would seem these men fear their own monsters. An empire, a navy, a king.

Phytosaur by 10tons, check the link for more photos.
Phytosaurs beared a remarkable resemblance to modern crocodilians in size, appearance, and lifestyle, as an example of convergence or parallel evolution.

Pliosaurs by Robert Nicholls | Follow on Tumblr.
1· Escaping the Odds (Leicester New Walk Museum)
The first Liopleurodon attacked the Muraenosaurus from below and behind. In this ambush the Liopleurodon, a pliosaur, tore away half of a forelimb. But the smell of blood in the water attracts a second nearby Liopleurodon, and the following confrontation will allow the Muraenosaurus, a plesiosaur, to escape!. PRINTS
2· Leviathan (Museum of Jurassic Marine Life)
The greatest predators in the Jurassic oceans were pliosaurs, some of which grew over 12m in length. Here an enormous Pliosaurus lunges forward to capture and swallow a Cryptoclidus whole. Above this attack are four large fish, called Pachycormus, and below swim ammonites, Pectinates, and a shoal of belemnites, Belemnoteuthis. PRINTS
3· Dancing Pliosaurs
At dusk, two pliosaurs dance while a third takes advantage of a pterosaur cleaning station. The pliosaurs and pterosaurs are no particular species; I just thought it was a nice idea that I hope to paint one day soon (in future I might try to make my sketches more species specific). And I realise the low sun may attract criticism because of the sunset cliché, but I figure every place on Earth (except the poles) has a sunrise and a sunset every 24 hours so they are very frequent events.
4· Jurassic Red Tide (Private commission)
A paleoartwork with an abstract expressionist twist! Here a Liopeurodon ferox is swimming amongst a bloom of red algae near a coastal coral reef. This was rendered using photographs, digital painting, and an acrylic painted scale model of Liopleurodon. PRINTS

Illustration by Robert Nicholls.
“shallow marine ecosystem during the early Carboniferous Period (359-318 million years ago). Crinoids include the camerates Dizygocrinus (under attack, bottom center, left) and the spiny Dorycrinus (bottom center, right), and the cladids Decadocrinus (bottom left) and Abrotocrinus (bottom right). Fishes include the cochliodont Deltoptychius (bottom center), the petalodont Janassa (left of center, ventral view), the chondrenchelyiform Chondrenchelys (far left), and the actinopterygian Amphicentrum (upper right)."

“Titanosaur” , by Andrey Atuchin (~Olorotitan) (blog)
The idea that some large sauropods needed to be in the water (to avoid being crushed by their own weight, I think), was discarded ages ago, so I guess this Titanosaur is just swimming like this elephant:
