A piece from the #MonkeyCruise series, in which I take classic pieces from art history and replace humans with extinct primates and alter the scenes accordingly.
Here it's Mesopithecus witnessing a beached Otodus megalodon.

a goliath shark preying on a juvenile serpent. in Nevverse, Otodus megalodon exists in some seas and primarily preys on other large predators like dragons and whales.
(this is a piece of work for a fantasy setting and not intended to be 100% accurate!)

A worn fossilized shark tooth of an Otodus sokolovi from the Samlat Formation in Dakhla, Morocco. This lesser known species of Otodus is sometimes synonomized with Otodus auriculatus, and represents a transitional form between it and Otodus angustidens.

We hit up a wildlife safari, got some lunch, went to a light house, a gem store with dinos out front, an actual dino place, and a few aquariums! Lots of fun.
I do have more pictures, although not an inordinate amount more, not enough for a full story, but let me know if you want some more of the pics. Lots of Otodus ones lol.

The Divers won! To celebrate I'm dropping their leader and matriarch first, Captain Otodus!
Big lady! Scary and brutal, but very clever and intuitive. All her children just call her "mama." For the rest, i'll probably drop them in clumps based on their litters!

Extinct?Faunus Jaune
Idea is courtesy of @unknowdude34
---------------------------------------------------
Kasai Rex!Faunus Jaune
Jaune: I'll see you guys later.
Ruby: Huh? Where are you going?
Jaune: I'm gonna go eat in my room.
Nora: We can do that?
Weiss: Sit down and eat, you antisocial buffoon!
Jaune: ...Okay.
Cardin: I'm telling you, I know what I saw! There was something by the pool last night, tearing apart something huge!
Russel: Cardin, I normally believe ya, but it just sounds too weird.
Dove: Yeah, like, a deer carcass in the pool? Pretty sure we'd get an announcement about that.
Lark: Not to mention the crocodile you saw eating it.
Cardin: That wasn't a crocodile! It was... It was something else! Something out of a horror film!
Jaune: (Cutting off the legs on his nuggies, Wishing he could eat in private)
Fun Fact! In 1933, in the African Kasai Valley, a hunter named John Johnson took a photo of an alleged dinosaur while hunting elephants. The elephants he intended to shoot were in fact hunted by a bipedal creature with red scales and black stripes. He shot this creature, but it retreated. On his return to camp, he found the creature again eating a rhinoceros near the water.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Percetus Colossus!Faunus Jaune
Nora: WOW! You are HUGE!
Jaune: Um, h-hi... I'm Jaune.
Nora: Where were you on the bullhead?! How'd you even fit?!
Ren: Nora, please.
Jaune: They, uh... They had to call in another bullhead for me.
Fun Fact! A recently discovered early whale, the basilosaurid Perucetus Colossus has the heaviest animal bone mass to have ever been discovered, even outsizing the giant Blue Whale.
---------------------------------------------------
Sperm Whale!Faunus Jaune Arc & Shark!Faunus Yang Xiao Long & Leviathan Melvillei!Faunus Papa Arc & Otodus Megalodon!Faunus Raven Branwen
Jaune: Just you and me, Yang.
Yang: Yeah... Only one of us can be the top fighter in this ring, and it's gonna be me.
Pyrrha: Why are those two always fighting?
Blake: For as long as I've known Yang, she and Jaune have always been fighting. It might even date back to their ancestors.
Meanwhile...
Papa Arc: Make the first move, Branwen...
Raven: Hmph! Ladies first, Arc...
Fun Fact! Leviathan Melvillei is an ancient ancestor of the sperm whale, equipped with teeth on it's top AND bottom jaw. It is argued whether it hunted Megalodon, were hunted by it, or simply competed would attack the other given the opportunity. The third is the often agreed upon consensus.
---------------------------------------------------
Giganotosaurus!Faunus Jaune & Tyrannosaurus!Faunus Saphron
Saphron: I took a test today! I aced it!
Mama Arc: Well done, Saphron! And how did you do, Jaune?
Jaune: Uh... W-Well, I think I'm improving, but-
Mama Arc: Jaune...
Jaune: ...I got a D+.
Fun Fact! Giganotosaurus is thought to be the largest theropod dinosaur discovered. However, despite have a much larger skull, and internal model of the brain casing shows that it may have had a smaller brain than the Tyrannosaurus.

I just found out my new shark’s teeth are from the Otodus Obliquus - an ancient macro shark - and just. Like. Look at the size of those teeth against my bull shark tooth necklace! The bull shark looks like a baby!

Old art BUT I??? I don't think I ever posted this guy (if I have woopsie!) But yeah! My old "Warriors" OC: The Great White Shark (or Shark... or white boy lol) - the main guy from my pirate/shark themed group.
More info under cut:
He's the youngest of seven children to "The Megalodon" (or Captain Otodus): a matriarchal leader of a rogue group known as "The Divers."
His eldest sister is The Hammerhead Shark and they clash a LOT. But she has a stronger nerve than him and can usually kick him back down into his place lol. She's like an unofficial deputy and everyone knows it.
They live by the ocean of Shark Bay in Western Australia, although frequently travel in small groups out to sea in the makeshift boats they craft to gather materials and food.
They're a notoriously violent group, neighbouring the more private but expansive desert group inland known as the "Sand Runners." They clash often when the Sand Runners need supplies from the sea, or The Divers travel inland to escape flooding and storms. They sometimes meet to trade, but mostly try to avoid each other.
The Divers also know how to use celestial navigation, read the time, filter water, fish, swim and make tools! Also they tend to spit a LOT due to the salt water that builds up in their fur. Also goes without saying, but they're very devoted to the sharks of Shark Bay, and can even tell a lot of them apart from their appearances/personalities.
I have lots more to say but it'll never shut up otherwise so lol

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
I'm continuing with the acrylic paintings I created in 2000. This one is Devourer of Giants, it features three Otodus megalodon, which have been attracted to some dead and bloated Anancus. The Anancus were drowned by a flash flood and carried out to sea.
