Although Dimetrodon likely had no scales, to me this like this work. Qualitative implementation within!

Looks good, but I think Dimetrodon may be more like a mammal, not a lizard.

Ever wanted to draw a hair-coverd Dimetodon, but the animal use dorsal fin to regulate body temperature should not have hair... so I finally decided to draw its skin lizard-like.

The sad thing with most Dimetrodon-depictions is, that the, allthough looking badass, had neither scales nor earholes in reality.

it had scales, small snake like scales probably but not big lizard scales. scientists just had bad evidence to support the fact it did not have scales by looking at estemmenosuchus, if I'm saying it correctly. anyways, this synapsid appeared much earlier than dimetrodon and lost most scales after the rein of the pelycosaurs. I don't thin dimetrodon had hair either, it was some odd conclusion to most scientist by looking into the early evolutionary chain. in most case, dimetrodon actually was more like lizard. sluggish like most lizards, but thanks to the dorsal fin, which was a great advantage to becoming mammal, radiated heat to be more active. by the middle Permian, their bodies probably stored most warmth and became warm blooded, which the need for a sail was no more, so that's why we don't see many more pelycosaurs after the early Permian.

The sagging lower lip is my favorite detail on this! It makes him look more mammalian for some reason.
