The interactive pepper's ghost hologram stuff was the most memorable pinball experience of my life

A photo in a workshop of a Brontosaurus head sculpt on top of a curving neck made out of many connected wooden discs, with a man standing beneath it. It is captioned, BRONTOSAURUS UNDER CONSTRUCTION. Plywood framework of the Brontosaurus, largest land creature to roam the Earth, looms over tools and staff that created it. Fiberglass skin was placed over the framework. One of three animated reptiles in the Sinclair dinosaur exhibit, the Brontosaurus is assembled in three parts during the 40-city tour. Dinosaurs were seen by almost 10 million visitors to the New York World's Fair in 1964 and 1965.

A photo of the near-finished Brontosaurus with its body and neck supported by stands. In the workshop around are other in-progress dinosaur statues, a small scale maquette of the Brontosaurus for reference, a life-size cutout template of the T. rex, and a number of workers, including one with a small child, looking up at it. The caption reads: BRONTOSAURUS UNDER CONSTRUCTION. Final skin of fibreglass completes the replica of the 20-ton Brontosaurus. Nine reptiles were recreated for the Sinclair Refining Company's World's Fair exhibit to demonstrate the age and quality of crude oil from which Sinclair's products are refined. Sculptor Louis Paul Jonas created the replicas; they were brought by barge from his Hudson, New York studio to the fair; and are currently touring the country aboard flatbed trailers.

A photo of a small child sitting in front of the completed Brontosaurus placed outdoors in a field near some trees, prior to being shipped out for the World's Fair. The caption reads, BRONTOSAURUS JURASSIC PERIOD. The best-known dinosaur, the Brontosaurus was called the "thunder lizard" on the assumption that his 20 tons shook the ground when he walked. A North American resident as recently as 135 million years ago, his neck and much of his 80-foot length permitted him to feed on underwater plantlife. The Brontosaurus is the symbol of the Sinclair Refining Company, sponsor of the 40-city tour of the nation.

Some enjoyable Louis Paul Jonas Studios behind the scenes photos of the construction of the life-sized Brontosaurus for the 1964 World's Fair, with accompanying descriptions written in 1966. #dinosaurs #paleoart #history In addition to his dinosaur work he created dozens of museum taxidermy mounts.

(Of course, we are also accelerating the environmental destruction, too. 'It's an environment, you've got to destroy environments.')

Artists, quote with something silly!

"Hey Red Hot Chili Peppers, what's that new genus of spiny ornithopod dinosaur that was discovered?"

A 3d viewport screenshot of a half-finished Gorgosaurus 3D model, a medium sized tyrannosaur. Most of the sculpt is unfinished, with very blobby indistinct anatomy.

Also I'm sorry to the people who followed me expecting more paleoart stuff, I do have a few things very far back on the backburner like this Gorgosaurus that I do intend to eventually finish and animate. One day, it will happen!

An image of a Star Wars podracer made out of components of V-wing starfighters (a ship from Star Wars episode 3), on a black background.

Throw back to that time I crudely kitbashed/'shopped together a podracer out of my low poly Star Wars V-wing model. Not intended as a serious thing.

What movie moment made you think "THIS IS CINEMA"

(Also I don't know what type of tree this is, if anyone does I would welcome an ID!)

Post a tree you photographed

We are looking for an environment artist. Information about the post is on our website (see bio). #indiegame #gamedev

"Hey Red Hot Chili Peppers, what's that new genus of spiny ornithopod dinosaur that was discovered?"

Never know when one might come in handy...

Actually now I think there is no separate first initial, and the first letter of that whole section is 'M.'

An Alamy stock photo of a 20th century sculpture of two detailed and realistic scaly Hypsilophodon standing on an angled tree limb or trunk, attached to a base with some writing carved into it, that is very difficult to make out due to the image's resolution.

Another great entry! Re: those Hypsilophodons' sculptor... it looks like at the base of the model it says "HYPSILOPHODON SCALE 1/5..." then possibly a first initial V and a last name starting with E? Not at all sure though.

My pal and fellow Scottish developer Chris Brown recently put his solo-dev racing game AGX GP up on Steam and you should definitely give it a look if you like AAA Wipeout visuals with ridiculously-fast twitch arcade gameplay. store.steampowered.com/app/4250680/...

Its biggest legacy is allegedly scaring execs into removing the “of Mars” from John Carter in order to avoid any association with “Mars Needs Moms,” which I think hurt John Carter more, as the title went from sci-fi to completely generic (though many other problems affected that one’s reception).

(also feeling fondness for this pattern should qualify for your discord age verification)

A Substance Painter screenshot of a detailed, fairly accurate 3D model of the central portion of an AT-ST from Star Wars, complete with realistic weathering.

The same model with the same weathering except it also has the 'jazz solo cup' pattern painted in jagged streaks along the sides and front of the cockpit.

Haven't been posting as much personal art because I am focusing on some NDA work, but just a reminder that as an artist you can make anything you want

Love that forward-facing angle, very striking!

As you should be!

I will look forward to it!

It certainly goes on a journey! But it does all come back together with an end result that is his attempt to come up with a system where every state gets a unique state bird that is native to the state, it is worth it when you get the chance. 😅

Yes but also I am obligated to link this excellent video any time the topic comes up: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAZI...
