One step closer to my dream of a feathery Postosuchus. Always wanted to see that get depicted, don't care if it's plausible or not.

I often find feathered extinct crurotarsans repulsive, mainly because every evidence we have of these creatures point to them being scaly and their body plan is just so...unlike anything that had ever had feathers in the first place...HOWEVER i can't help but love every single one of Nix's works, seriously guys, they're just too good. aaaand talking about Nix:

How? We only have skin impressions of derived crocodylomorphs, alligators have clear feather genes, and many species were evidently endothermic. I also don't know what you mean by "unlike anything that ever had feathers". |

Aetosaurs clearly show osteoderms and armored skin, and they are a very basal group of pseudosuchians, but other than that, point taken. I guess its just that i prefer to stay in the safe side of things until any evidence is presented, but fair point, it might very well have been the case, but for now i'd rather keep my pseudosuchians devoid of feathers. As for the second point its just that... They're so unlike dinosaurs and pterosaurs in their bodyplan that i guess to me it just feels....wrong... But again that was never a good argument for anything so moving on: ![]() Update: Turns out Phytosaurs and Rauisuchians also have considerable evidence of scales and osteoderms so its safe to assume atleast the pseudosuchians as a whole were a scaly clade. Phytosaur scale impressions: Rauisuchian skin:

Phytosaurs are not pseudosuchians, but basal archosauromorphs. Point taken on rauisuchians, but aetosaurs curiously only display large scutes, no small scales. Kinda of like armadillos... |
