Pan Pentaceratops & Aroace Aerodactylus

Bohemiatupus elegans

On yesterdays stream we covered the Tiki formation of India, a productive Triassic formation most notable in recent years for it's bonebed of Colossosuchus. This formation was deposited largely during the Carnian, an episode in Earth history known for increased global rainfall.

Results from the #paleostream!
Asmodochelys, Angustungui, Medusaceratops and Sinclairomeryx

Theropods tracks

Sauropod tracks

Theropod track

Paloxi River on the main track site in Dinosaur Valley State Park

Finally got to visit Dinosaur Valley State Park today!

Soooo many theropod and sauropod fossil tracks along the Paloxi River. The tracks are Early Cretaceous in age. The theropod is believed to probably have been Acrocanthosaurus amd the Sauropod Sauroposeidon

An illustration of Spinosaurus - a large sail-backed dinosaur splashing through an inland sea. Huge clouds of spray are thrown into the air, and the sunlight produces a rainbow above the dinosaur.

Today seems like an appropriate day to repost my old Spinosaurus illustration, complete with rainbow. 🌈

Oh Las Hoyas, what a joy to research and paint you are! Ever since I got myself a book on this locality in 2016 I wanted to do a bigger piece depicting the complex and diverse ecosystem that has been preserved here. While Concavenator and other archosaurs might be the main draw...

Schematic diagram illustrating a small selection of results of the decay experiments. Two columns show representations of three stages of zebrafish decay showing the changing complement of visible features; from top to bottom: at 0 days (with anatomical features labelled); 2 days; 92 days (left) and 55 days (right). The left column shows the control experiment (specimens in water only) and on the right carcasses were in water and sand. Experiment days (0, 2, 92/55) are shown on the left and right. The full experimental results are included in the paper.

Illustration showing a Dunkleosteus trying to eat an ammonite while a group of Stathacanthus swims around them. The ammonite trying to escape is releasing a cloud of ink in an effort to confuse the approaching Dunkleosteus

A huge Dunkleosteus terrelli hurls towards a group of ammonites looking for lunch. One of them releases a cloud of ink trying to escape. All this happens while a school of Stethacanthus (a shark-like chondrichthyan) swims by in the Late Devonian sea.

Introducing Mosura fentoni, a new radiodont from the #BurgessShale.
Paper here: doi.org/10.1098/rsos.2…
This #fossil species has 3 eyes, spiny claws, wing-shaped swimming flaps, and a unique abdomen-like body region.

Doodles from yesterday's flocking #paleostream featuring Attenborosaurus, Dakosaurus, Etjosuchus, and Dibango.

A digital drawing of a Homotherium latidens cub, based on a mummy that was found in Siberia. Just a sleepy little thing. It's also fluffy and looks soft (or it does, at least! I did my best). I tried to draw the head from the side just like in the paper to show the resemblance, and also show the unique shape of it's paws. The background is dark, with a few stars that form constellations. There is one little star on the head of the cub, that shines slightly brighter than the others.

a new little star shines brightly above the Siberian horizon.

a little Homotherium latidens, that seems to be just a few weeks old, was found in Yakutia

Attenborosaurus.

This genus of early Jurassic Pliosaurid is named after Sir David Attenborough, whose 99th birthday is today.

Piece from 2023.

Timeline cleanse: do you want to see one of the best fossil animations I have EVER seen?

@kiabugboy.bsky.social you are literally a master of the form. BBC or Discovery (whoever pays more) should hire you immediately 🧪🦑⚒️

March’s Patreon content (including concept art and behind the scenes commentary) is now public!

On tonight's #paleostream I did a bunch of wishes for buyers of my books!
A griffin, a aliens doing their first steps on land, a spec evo mosasaur from Lemuria and the "slasher" from Terra Nova, a redesign.

Time to visit the weird hazel wood with its ferns and purple parasites (Lathrea clandestina)! 🌿🌸 #botany

A heavy footed moa (Pachyornis elephantopus) father sits with a recently-hatched chick, the two of them looking at one another. The ground is covered with plant matter and bits of eggshell fragments.

Okayyy artist introduction time! Hey, my name's Tas and I'm an Australian palaeontology student and palaeoartist. I've been captivated by prehistory almost my whole life and trying to draw it for just as long! I mostly do digital, pencil and papercraft work but anything else is fun too!

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.

its some dang meat

UPDATE.

We're proud to reveal our new posters! A lot of effort went into the big mural-style poster especially. These will soon all be shipped out to backers who ordered them, and eventually we'll open an online store where you can buy them as well!
