Description
Estemmenosuchus, meaning "Crowned Crocodile", is a genus of large omnivorous therapsid or mammal-like reptile (not a dinosaur). It lived during the Middle Permian period (255 million years ago). It was the largest animal of its day, up to 4 m (13 feet), and is characterised by distinctive horns-like structures.
Two species of Estemmenosuchus are known, both from the Perm region of Russia.

You somehow find the most obscure species of dinosaurs and make the relevant! This guy looks awesome. I can even see it as a fantasy creature. Really great work.

That's interesting, I haven't run across that one before. Looks like a great model, and more fun looking than Moschops

Mean looking beasties. Wouldn't want to mess with them. Great scene though. Love the POV and poses. Great setting too!
