Pencil drawing of the vintage naked raptor.

This one is Cryptid art but also nostalgic #Dinosaur art to me. The Arica Monster sightings described an animal reminiscent of the Raptors from Jurassic Park, or some Bird-Kangaroo-Lizard creature. I went more with Raptor for the sake of nostalgia.

Pencil drawing of an apelike creature reaching for a half buried M1 helmet.

Third one for #Cryptoctober, based on the list by @bestcryptids.bsky.social . Rock Apes were reported during the Vietnam War. They were described as monkey, ape, even hominidlike. Rock Apes had the habit of throwing rocks, hence the moniker. #cryptozoology #art #sketchbook

I really like Your list, and I am currently drawing the Rock Ape.

Pencil drawing of Pach-an-a-ho, a bird cryptid.

Second #drawing for #cryptoctober. Pach-an-a-ho is an alleged cryptid, looking like Gastornis, an extinct large flightless bird. There were claimed sightings in 1975, and also it's allegedly known to the Yakima tribe. The name is supposed to mean "crooked beak" or "rough looking bird" in Yakima.

Pencil drawing of a rather bizarre looking fish.

Cryptid list by Legendary Cryptids.

First entry for #cryptoctober . I used the list by @bestcryptids.bsky.social as they feature lesser known #Cryptids. Like Cleary's Fish, a Deep-sea Fish claimed to have been witnessed by a diver in a dive bell. #cryptozoology #art #drawing

I will join with some Cryptids. Amazing list, because most of them are unknown to me.

Drawing little Sqwuak-Sqwuaks for my #Dinosaur colouring book. And also inking a pinecone with attitude.

Thank you. Yes, my love for a lot of details is kicking in again. I hope, the Dinosaurs will find their way to people who will appreciate them.

I could have made a super clever caption or voiceover. But I am not feeling it. Just drawing #dinosaurs . #paleoart #sciart 🐡🦕🦖

Some #sketches from my visit to the Victoria and Albert Museum. I simply forgot to post them

I am a big proponent in Frenshaped. Even for large Theropods.

Finally some fuzzy, fuzzy #Dinosaurs. And a little more progress on the colouring book. #paleoart #sciart 🐡

Black and white line drawing of Baryonyx, a theropod Dinosaur with a characteristical long snout, hunting a fish in a shallow lake, surrounded by lush shrubs.

New Dinosaur for my colouring book. And I went a bit overboard with about anything concerning details. This time it's Baryonyx on the hunt for some fish. And Scheenista having a crappy day.

Ohhhhh, that's interesting. I sketched the skull of the Helsinki specimen many, many years ago.

My finished sketch of Theseus and the Minotaur. It's drawn in pencil and shows Theseus sitting on the fallen Minotaur's lap similar to the sexual Riding Position.

I was in UK, and visited the Victoria and Albert Museum among other things. And I did some sketching in the museum. Here is the video and the sketch.

(2/2) Insbesondere dann, wenn es nicht um Korrektur geht, sondern nur um geschmäcklerische Entscheidung seitens der Lehrerin. Ironisch, wenn man bedenkt, dass sie schon beim Erklären vom Horizont gescheitert ist.

Das ist ein Paradebeispiel, dass ein Künstler nicht automatisch ein guter Lehrer ist. Da ging so ziemlich Alles schief, was schief gehen kann. So richtig daneben finde ich das Reinpfuschen in die Bilder der Kinder. Das ist ein absolutes No-Go. (1/2)

I am currently offering commissions. They start at 40€. In the video down below You can view my past commissions. I won't do anything Disney related, but OFMD, Sherlock Holmes, and various other fandoms are welcome.

Digital illustration of a momma Sasquatch and her offspring that is clinging to her back. They are deep in the forest. She is looking to the left at something outside the picture frame, while Babyfoot is looking at the viewer. In the background is a white tailed deer looking in the same direction like Big Momma Foot.

I updated a bit my #Bigfoot #illustration. Just adding some highlights and details. Currently, I am struggling a bit, and I need to be careful with my #art projects, because I feel a bit like deleting everything. #cryptozoology #cryptids #strugglingArtist

Ink drawing of Hachishakusama, a modern Yokai from Japan. She is an enormously tall woman, with long hair and elongated limbs. She is wearing a broad head, and towering over a small child.

I am still thinking about making an #OtterFlag comic based on this video. But all on its own it could simply be the Gentlebun and Bunbeard. #BrainrottingCute #JustSaying

Yes, nature is brutal. I love to add little side stories to my comics.

Ed climbs out of the water with a large carp in his mouth. The carp already bit the bait and has the fishing line dangling out of its mouth. Ed:"And when you're bored enough, you go and catch the fucking fish yourself!" Stede is bemused by this.

Sixth panel.

Ed suddenly jumps head first into the water. Steve looks on confused.

Fifth panel.

Ed is getting visibly fussy and impatient. Even Stede seems bored and watches a large dragonfly fly by.

Fourth Panel.

Ed and Stede now sit back and wait for the fish to bite. Ed:"And then you wait. Just sitting and waiting for the fish to come... Being patient and forcing nothing.... All relaxed..." Stede: "I see." (Stede takes a sip out of his tea cup.)

Third panel.
