Black and blue line drawings of cartoon Prehistoric creatures. From left to right top to bottom: dimetrodon the sail backed reptile mammal thing, diplocaulus an amphibian with a banana head, sacabambaspis the googly eyed fish, generic ichthyosaur.

Trace fossils -burrows, borings + tracks represent fossilised behaviour of living things

Looks great!

Fascinating. Makes a lot of sense.

Absorption of phosphate on clays

Always suspected that clays play a role in limiting the mineralization of phosphate, was even planning an experiment to test that out, but someone beat me to it - showing that nano-clays absorb phosphate on their surface. 🧪⚒️

Good guess, but not right this time.
This is Grimlock. I'll have to have a think about what Wheeljack would be.

You correct. Him Grimlock. Him king!

But him still king!

Consider the Rattle In a state that still hosts grisly “rattlesnake roundups,” human Texans should learn to see something of themselves in their ancient, slithering kin.

My latest! In this month's cover story for the @texasobserver.org, I wrote an expansive, oddly philosophical deep dive into the western diamonback rattlesnake, a much-maligned animal I've come to have a lot of respect and affection for

A quick and dirty #TransformersPrimordial concept of an Isotelus rex alt mode. +1 TF point if you recognise who this Trilobot is a potential alt mode for. #Transformers #Maccadam

ST-04 Destruction Warrior. A KO of SS86 Megatron. It's a bit janky in an endearing way but not a replacement for the official dude. But as a £20 (including shipping), stand in until you can get the real thing. It's a bargain. Then you have a jank bot to customise. #Transformers #Megatron

ICAL are on home ground today!
We’re at Manchester Museum taking part in their HUGE British Science Week science festival for local schools.

This year, thanks to our @thepalass.bsky.social grant, we’ve added new interactive phylogenetic activity and an “surviving disasters” game to our roster!

Character design of cartoon suffragette.

Protest, go on strike, share your experiences, support each other or just take care of yourself so you have strength to carry on. ❤️

Union street fire: support Haus of Hair Last month, my wonderful hairdresser and friend Gemma left her job to fulfil her dream of starting her own salon with fellow stylist Aimee. 'Haus of Hair' opened last week. I visited on Friday and wa...

My hairdresser and friend opened her business last week. Tonight it burned to the ground. This is devastating.

I’ve set up a fundraiser. If you haven’t done anything for international women’s day yet, here’s a chance to support a women-run business in need: www.paypal.com/pools/c/9nhn...

Interesting! It looks quite flaggy.

Some nice sandstone there. Looks to be cross bedded too.

Issue 10 is landing later today! Still putting it all together

Remembered this character I drew a while ago... the fight is never ending, right?
I know she is way too cute for the rage we are all feeling. But still, she's fighting.
Happy (?) international women's day.

Creeping close to completion. Still finalising the alt mode design to incorporate all the previous versions. #Transformers #Maccadam #Skullgrin #Decepticon

A digitally painted scene from the Fezouata Formation featuring Aegirocassis, Sagenograptus, Falcisicaris, Bathmoceras, Rhopalocystis, Plumalina, Brachyaglaspis, Choia, Megistaspis, Eoconularia, Plasiacystis, Plumulites, Ampyx, Pirania, and a non-specific Conodont

Fezouata Formation.

Felt like drawing an Aegirocassis, accidentally drew a bunch of other stuff too.

On International Women’s Day it’s great to remember that Grunya Sukhareva identified Autism before Kenner (100 years ago), identified that Autism presented regardless of sex, and that it is a spectrum.

Good morning.
Drawing for International Women’s Day 2026.

saw a cool design that I thought would make a neat serberys conversion and I recently got some bike parts for cheap, so I'm trying this dino-bike build

Global distribution of female scholars in vertebrate palaeontology research in 2023, displayed as the proportion of female authors by country. The pie charts illustrate regional variations, while the line graphs show the temporal trends in female scholar proportions among the top five countries by publication volume (2014−2023).

Happy International Women's Day 💐

Did you know, for every 7 men in palaeontology, there are ~3 women. Women make up 25-35% of global vertebrate palaeontological publishing output. And are most likely to study mammals, while men, reptiles.

High-resolution mapping and terrain classification of Halimeda bioherms in the northern Great Barrier Reef Halimeda is a prolific marine calcifying green alga that forms vast green meadows at mesophotic water depths (20–50 m) on tropical continental shelves…

New paper alert. Lead by PhD student Zsanett Szilagyi. Geomorphology of mesophotic Halimeda bioherms - which cover large areas (>6000km2) of the northern Great Barrier Reef and form very distinct honeycomb shapes. Why? Still working on that.

The art of imaginary worlds is created with the image of actually going there and sketching.
