I did some art of the newly described Invictibellatrix recently! I ended up leaving the label for this one more generic though, as realistically this illustration can comfortably represent pretty much any early megaraptoran. #sciart #paleoart

Big news: @chrismanias.bsky.social and I are planning a #PALEOART MEETING in London for early next year: a whole day devoted to palaeoart practice, science, history and culture. Interested? Please complete and share this survey to help shape our plans! forms.cloud.microsoft/pages/respon...

Charles Knight's awesome mural of Late Cretaceous dinosaurs with the words "The Palaeoart Salon: a proposed meeting about palaeoart, Survey" written over it.

Ah amazing! I remember speaking to you about this sort of thing earlier in the year, very happy to see it come to fruition! Will definitely make it a priority to attend.

Along the foothills of the great mountain, a Tromerosaurus chases ghosts. #sciart #paleoart

A world-class demonstration on why it takes humans to make art. Maybe someday AI engines will rival the technical skill here, but they won't be able to generate the honest emotional reactions this animation conveys.

Stills from my Tromerosaurus animation - my PC is very unhappy with my Blender shenanigans, but we persevere!

Proud to present my lifesize T. rex head, affectionately named Hannibal. I created this myself from start to finish- digital sculpture, resin 3D printing, painting, etc. Huge thanks to my friend @rj-palmer.com for instrumental crits and redlines during the sculpting process.

And success!! He seemed quite shaken up by the ordeal, but hopefully will pull through and get back to full strength!

So today I spotted this little pigeon stuck on the platform at Oxford Circus tube station. I didn't think he'd find his way out so...

This is something that I have been long fascinated with - behavioural chaos is so prevalent in the natural world and we don't discuss it nearly enough in the context of animal ethology, and *especially* animal paleoethology. Really good article worth a read!

Two of my most anticipated games in years (Planet Zoo 2 and Control: Resonant) are releasing around now and my computer is nowhere near powerful enough to handle them 😭

Oh man Resident Evil was so good There was also a trailer for Whalefall at the start. Directors really look at Austin Abrams and say "put this white boy in a situation"
