How to Draw a Dimetrodon
Dimetrodon is a type of prehistoric reptile that lived during the Permian period, around 295 to272 million years ago. It is most famous for its large sail-like structure on its back, which is thought to have been used to help regulate its body temperature. Dimetrodon was a carnivore, and its sharp teeth and large claws would have made it a fearsome predator. It is thought to have measured up to 3.9 meters in length and weighed up to 1,000 kg. Although it is often considered to be a dinosaur, Dimetrodon actually predates the dinosaurs by around 50 million years. Follow this guide and draw a scary Dimetrodon.
