Art of Colonel Hammerhead's oc Terra a Nanuqasaurus girl, her arms have a scalie texture, she has a thick tail. She's applying blue eyeliner with a mirror, she has blue eyes, she has brown hair that's growing white at the roots because of winter. She's sitting on her bed on a sunny day

#FossilFriday Celebrating the exodus of my artworks from Twitter, here I post the Infernodrakon life reconstruction again, which I've worked on for a great team including @zhejiang0pterus.bsky.social and @davehone.bsky.social

Results from the Flocking #paleostream!
This one was gorgonopsid heavy!
Dinogorgon, Viatkogorgon, Njalila and Hippidion

I should get some concept artwork of this sometime. Of course the dinosaurs and Environments but Especially the colony, ships, vehicles, armor, weapons, and the characters.

Should I do a post for people to give out some ideas?

“Any experienced merchant will tell you that a good map is priceless treasure, and making those maps is a vital job for a society built on trade. Pterosaur aerial surveys help to sketch in the broad strokes for cartographers...

Two giant dicynodonts, brown and gold, move through a forest. The male is larger, with pointy downward facing tusks, and the female is smaller with forward facing tusks.

A mated pair of Lisowicia trundle through a conifer forest. I'm not super happy with this piece (I really struggled with the lighting), but I'm glad I attempted a plant-heavy background with this Cheirolepidiaceae forest.

Either a plane flying past the full moon on a clear night, or an interstellar transport in the cold depths of space, passing a sun-lit nebula on a supply run to the off-world colonies.

For a moment, a plane flying past the full moon on a clear night became a still from a sci-fi movie only I was watching.

Finally can reveal publically some things I'm working on! Chimeras tend to get the spotlight for Beast Fables, so here's one focusing on Dire Beasts!

In Beast Fables, being a Dire Beast means a critters natural adaptations tend are cranked up to eleven.

Some people really do be like:
"nah, our modern day image of dinosaurs is boring and stupid"...

Beast Fables - The Dire Beasts of Land and Sky

Just like the seas, Gifted creatures of land and sky can also be Dire Beasts, and everything frrom hornbills to stag beetles can seriously maim even a large werebeast.

Two Abyssosaurus (one hidden in the darkness at the background and the other right in front) navigating the deep waters of the seas with their bright green eyes standing out in the darkness.

The true monsters of the depths of the Mesozoic, the possible plesiosaur of the abyssal zones: the Abyssosaurus.

Ursa-Yautja

A speculative creature from Yautja Prime, I imagine this thing to be as close to the Yautja genetically as one would a gorilla, but lives like a carnivorous bear.

A reward for a client, who wanted me to draw a Pandoran Miragaia analogue!

Its body coursing through with electricity, if the sharp thagomizers weren't warning enough, then the shock will be.

Vasco Da Gama, 2025

Based on Kridsanupong Puntanon paper "The occurrence of Spinosauridae (Dinosauria: Theropoda) during the Cretaceous of Asia: Implications for biogeography and distribution" about a landbridge that introduced a spinosaur to Asia.

the double-crested theropod dilophosaurus rests by a stream in the shade of a tree, with some slender sauropodomorphs and pterosaurs in the background, which shows a forest and a canyon. her plumage is mostly black to dark grey, with a slightly lighter underbelly, flecked throughout with lilac-white highlights. there is a ring of blue skin around her eye, and her crest is sulphur-yellow with black vertical stripes.

decked out in her breeding plumage, arizona's most eligible dilophosaurus debutante takes a much-needed rest by a stream. who knew that competing for a mate could be such an exhausting endeavour?

The Lank, a giraffe-like flightless pterosaur with a broad, flattened snout and hooves.

The Flarp, an ostrich-like bipedal pterosaur with a wrinkly pink face and vestigial wings. A closeup of the face gives a good look at its scaled and wrinkled appearance, while another image shows two Flarp’s courtship display.

Dougal Dixon’s Lank from The New Dinosaurs got a lot of flack over the years, but surely the Flarp was always the sillier of the two? Even during a time when bipedality was a seriously considered model for pterosaur locomotion, the Flarp is just nonsensical. It makes FAR more sense as a dinosaur.

I don't think I've seen any recent artwork of Walking with Dinosaurs Live Arena Specatular. Honestly I'm kinda curious what a more Paleo accurate designs would look like. Also if you could add more dinosaurs and scenes, what would you add?

Did anyone else try to avoid Walking With Dinosaurs Death of Dynasty as a kid? Mostly to save oneself from seeing the mass extinction of the dinosaurs? I did for awhile since I saw it in the Walking with Dinosaurs Live Arena Specatular.

Current mood and thoughts atm

My favorite raptor,
Utahraptor
