I am afraid this time I cannot answer you much. Rhadiodromus was another large long-tusked kannameyerid from Russia, recently described by Surkov in Paleontological Journal. This journal is very difficult to get if you are not professional in paleontology.

Yes, this animals had big eyes and they probably looked very cute.

It looks very basal. I like the iris color/colour scheme that you chose for this Myosaurus. ^_^

Probably. At least what is known to me. I know there are several tiny skulls of different therapsids discovered (anomodonts, therocephalians) from which is not clearly known if they were juvenile or not.

Many dicynodont skulls of the size around 5-6 cm are known, for instance from the species Oudenodon, Emydops, Cistecephalus etc. Even a skull of adult Myosaurus measures approx. 5 cm however smaller skulls were discovered as well and they may belong to juvenile Myosaurus (The Dicynodonts, a study in paleobilogy by G. King).
