Hi @sketchy-raptor.bsky.social , that’s amazing work!

I wanted to get in touch with you about the online palaeoart gallery + talks I’m hosting. I’ve one about reconstruction in mind and would love to exchange with you about it if you’re open to it? 🙂🦖

I don't think I ever shared the fully edited breakdown reel of my T. rex model.

I've changed the texture maps a bit since compiling this (dirt pass and proper roughness maps), but I don't really feel like re-rendering the whole walk cycle again, especially not in this heat...

Done this scene multiple times and it's a staple of palaeoart so it's hard to find something different. But kinda like it.

Under Construction 🚧 sign for the permanent virtual exhibition.

The permanent exhibition is under construction and will be available again on 18th July!

Stay tuned for more artists showcasing their amazing work!

Meanwhile, please enjoy the special exhibition and recorded talk by Dr Chris Manias here: extinctfineart.com/view-gallery/
