Meganthropus palaeojavanicus of Sangiran, Central Java, Indonesia. A hominid that lived during the early-middle Pleistocene. Brush test from last year. The fur brush is by Ville Sinkkonen, which you can get from his gumroad. Easily my top 5 brushpacks.

Work of Margret Flinch should get more attention and be named along the Knight and Christman as the great paleoartists. Illustrator and sculptor among other things she made life reconstructions to Osborns massive two part monograph series on proboscideans. I’m particularly fond of these ink drawings

Squeezing in one more art piece before the end of 2024, a year after having the opportunity to do fieldwork in the Candeleros Fm of Argentina's Neuquén Basin. That trip inspired this piece, which depicts a group of titanosaurs traveling a dry interdune riverbed at sunset. #paleoart #sauropods 🦕

After the Moa, another bird for this mammal-heavy series. Which makes me wonder if we have any paleolithic depictions of now extinct reptiles... #paleoart #SciArt #artbyjulio
A rendition of a Great Auk in a realistic but also rough, painterly style against a textured beige background. Next to it is a replica of a minimalistic cave painting showing the same animal, along with a hand print motif and text saying: "Pinguinus impennis, Grotte Cosquer, France, around 17 thousand years before present"

#FossilFriday with its bizarre skull, the protocetid whale Makaracetus has become my beloved nemesis. It’s extremely hard to reconstruct, but @gohar.bsky.social recently told me that my illustration of it is the most accurate he’s seen, so I must be on the right track. #paleoart #sciart #whale
My initial sketches, transferring the anatomy of different modern animals onto the skull to see what felt plausible.The reconstruction I settled on, taking cues from moose and camels along with my own previous drawings of other protocetids.Some sketches exploring the reconstruction I’ve settled on. You know you love an animal when you’re willing to absolutely roast it.Full painting of Makaracetus based on my earlier research and design work. This actually started as a screenshot of a swimming moose from Planet Zoo, which I warped and painted over in Procreate.

Andrewsarchus once though to have been a mesonychid of large size, it passed through varied cladistic revisions that changed radically the way it was reconstructed, now it is the only member of its own family, Andrewsarchidae most close relative to entelodonts.

Hesperotherium is among the youngest chalicotheres in the fossil record, although it's only known by few jaw pieces and teeth, comparing to other chalicotheres like Nestoritherium it likely could have had a short muzzle, if they had the usual late chalicothere body form is just speculative.
