Update to the north-pole-centered map of the ice age: 20,000 years ago, last glacial maximum. PLUS a new variant that shows what the terrain/coastline looked like UNDER the ice! 👀 #sciart #maps #geology #paleoart

Felt like doing yet another Ice Age map, here centered on the North Pole. (WIP?) Last Glacial Maximum - 20,000 years ago. Mammoths and shit. #sciart #geology #paleoart

Happy to see I made the right interpretation of this BTS pic, the shots look great! This trailer is so much more well edited than whatever the f*** the first trailer was lol

Nautical map experiment, of the Western Interior Seaway during the Campanian - "the MOST dangerous sea ever". Might update it later on. Geography largely based on Schueth 2025 (+some PBDB data points), Cao 2024 plate tectonics model. #sciart #paleoart #geology #maps #mosasaurs

it'll be fun to see what we can do with the North America "finale" once Surviving Earth drops:) These arrows were done in blender btw!

Capping off the year with yet another prehistoric map: Australia during the Pleistocene ice age, an ancient land of bizarre Megafauna, as seen in the most recent season of Prehistoric Planet. See you all in 2026, happy new year! : ) #Maps #Geology #Sci-art #sciart #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge #GIS

With this one, I made two world variants. The one below shows the Late Pliensbachian ice-house (184 million years ago) and the other variant shows the Early Toarcian, following some serious global warming and ecological upheaval (Toarcian oceanic anoxic event). Early #Jurassic

Here: the highest local coastline, 190 m above sea level. Doesn't get more ice age than that! Happy??

New? this photo has been out for like 2 years now. Anyways, might as well ad the other angles while we're at it It might make a lucrative meal for some flying and/or aquatic scavengers...
