Reconstructions of 23 species of Dromaeosaurs next to the silhouette of a ca. 1.8 m tall human

Two small and semiaquatic (possibly) dromaeosaurs from Late Cretaceous Asia. Natovenator polydontus and Mahakala omnogovae. Both species have been found to be closely related to Halszkaraptor

I have added these two to my plate of all Dromaeosaurs

Old OC monstification doodle

An illustration of a pale colored swan with its back partly to us, wings are full out in front of it and its head is looking over at us. It's neck is unnaturally bendy. The background is a blush pink and there are red stars surround it

Old Quetz scribble

A digital drawing of a modern horse (about 150cm tall) and a little Eohippus that is standing on its back, to show how small it was. The drawing is simple, just two animals on a dark background, with two stars shining above them, connected by a thin line. It's just a quick drawing that i'll probably use for a size chart in the future, if i continue to work on reconstructing more horse ancestors. (and if i'm being completely honest, it was just an excuse to do a boring horse study, that's all)

working on early horses, i wanted to do a quick sketch to show how small Eohippus was compared to an extant horse (this one is about 150cm tall). as you can see, it wasn't big at all. a perfect little lap horse :)

A small bipedal dinosaur hunches over a dead branch against an arid, parched landscape. The dinosaur has yellow-orange quills over its back, face and tail, with paler legs and facial ruff. The snout is blue and the interior of the mouth yellow. Stiffened quills project upward from the shoulders. A collection of twigs and pinecones at the base of the image represents a bowerbird-like display structure.

New to the internet #paleoart: "Ubirajara jubatus", the strangely filamented Brazilian compsognathid famous for its history as an illegally exported fossil. Here, it's signalling to us with colourful mouthparts and a fetching bower of twigs and pinecones. Drawn for @palaeogames.bsky.social.

You guys should know about one FREE art software I use which often gets skipped.

I make game assets, pixelart, drawings, and animations with it.

It's FireAlpaca. Srsly, its file format is smol half the size of psd thus easily shareable. It's simple and easy to use.

Some examples:

Incomplete study of Neovenator. Showing its anterior body and head

Line sketch of Neovenator sitting

I don’t have the time to finish it but here is a quick study and sketch of Neovenator from today.

Posts from me will be slow until January because I am taking some much needed time off!

Dec 22: Pachycephalosaurus for #DinosaurMannsDinoDecember

This time more fantastic and marine.

Up is down

A couple of studies of the Jurassic ichthyosaur Hauffiopteryx typicus. Top: line study of the animal swimming viewed from below and laterally. Bottom: Color study showing the animal swimming viewed from above and turning. It is primarily black with a pair of white blotches on the neck behind the eye and on the tip of the flippers

And continuing with ichthyosaurs, here are studies of the pointy Hauffiopteryx typicus

my static raiding group celebrated our 1 year anniversary this spring and i have made ‘wall of the great raiders’ as a gift for our party(we still using those as our discord pics)

started as a scribble in my notebook and ended up as a poster i am proud of #gw2 #art

I'm buried in late-stage book prep at the moment, so have little time for social media or much else. Here's some new #paleoart to prove that I'm not dead: a hard-working Acheroraptor has its day ruined by a juvenile king tyrant. Bloody royals. #sciart

I need to remake my old sinosauropteryx sometime.
