I’m also figuring out what the visual style I want to do this project in. Noticeably different from the last post featuring these guys. lol

Revisiting my Yellow Crested Rahgar again. These examples are all males, which are brighter in comparison to the females. These are mostly explorations of colour and patterns. Eventually I’ll draw both males and females with the different head shapes and maybe ethnicities.

Been working on this for a while. The commercial for the MyWine app. I’m quite proud of it. I am responsible for all the visuals.

I reposted this earlier but I gotta boost it again

this is so incredible and makes me want a "VISIONS" type anthology about dinosaurs living as wild animals in our world soooo badly

Today, we know exactly what needs to be done to recover the climate ecosystem and protect the last remaining pristine landscapes.
It's not a matter of science
It's a matter of political action.

To be an environmentalist today, means getting political.
Because it's worth fighting for

animation is expensive and takes a long time.

a lot of fans have no idea why-- why it takes so long, what happens in it, why it needs SO much money to do, and these shorts are going to explain all of that, so people have a better idea of how the sausage is made

Explorations for an enemy force and a main antagonist for #Everhaven with a theme of unraveling threads and puppeteering. The idea of a big bad clashed with the game’s cozy goals, so it was dropped. #ProjectDragon #BringBackProjectDragon #characterart #2Dart

W doesn't like dungeons, temples, ruins or whatever the hell has lots of stones plied on top of eachother? The bigger the better as they say, I for a fact love them. Here is a sneak peak into something I'm doing...

Me, savouring my hours of sleep: 😴
The humble phone ringtone:

And here it is, our second Cambrian formation piece! This time we visited the even older Surius Passet from Greenland, our first real deep sea deposit.

Not that much time plus technical difficulties yesterday meant that I only did one sketch on #paleostream.
This is Chelonoidis pucara a new, giant tortoise from the Pleistocene of Argentina.
I am exceptionally happy with this being published because of several reasons...

A diagram featuring the life cycle of a Seikret from Monster Hunter, which is a velociraptor-like creature. The first phase is a green-blue egg covered in darker flecks. The baby phase is a fluffy hatchling covered in white downy feathers, with short legs and a short tail. The juvenile phase has started developing its true plumage of green, blue, and purple feathers, but still retains some of its white fluff. Its forelimb wings and horns are also starting to develop. The final adult phase has fully developed plumage, no white fluff, and white feathers covering its neck and chest. Its horns are fully developed it also has spines coming out of its tail.

(plus, my speculative take on what a juvenile would look like!)

Been working on a painting for a while. It’s still a WIP. Which looks best so far? Overcast greys or subtle blue hues?
#digitalart #specbio #creaturedesign #wip

Hello. I’m back. Sorry for having been gone so long. I have been working the last few months on a hand animated commercial and have been quite busy. Should be posting more often now though.

The commercial is getting its final corrections and sounds now. No NDA so I can post it hear once it’s done.

Adult females generally blend into their surroundings, while the males tend to be more flamboyant in appearance. Depending on the parentage, some chicks may exhibit gold flecks in their plumage, which could also be influenced by environmental factors.

burrows or forts as part of their play.

Speaking of chicks, the nestlings depicted here are about six months old and still have very clean downy feathers. This is not typical, but it highlights how gray their coloration is in comparison to the adults.

Yellow Crests also possess some burrowing capabilities. They have short, shovel-shaped claws similar to those of rabbits. Many years ago, they used these claws to dig burrows and construct mud nests. While this practice is rare today, it is still common to see chicks trying to build-

Though their takeoff speeds are fast, they lack stamina and cannot reach great heights compared to other Rahgar species. While they are very agile in the air, their ability to fly at high altitudes is not their strongest trait.

Physically, Yellow Crests are built like songbirds. Their short, broad wings and smaller size give them quick takeoff speeds, which help them evade predators more easily.

Yellow Crested Rahgar

The Yellow Crests are the smallest species of Rahgar, with the largest populations concentrated in the savannah regions to the west of Ecaran’s capital. They also thrive in steppe regions.
