Tiny dino fossil feather 🪶 found in dino fossil excrement 💩, dating from 66 million years ago, around the time most #dinosaurs got extinct! 🦕☄️ Fossil poop can tell what animals ate, so we can reconstruct ecological interactions between species! 👇 🧪 #science #paleo www.abc.net.au/news/science...

Feather discovered in fossilised dinosaur poo is first of its kind

A well-preserved feather discovered inside fossilised dinosaur faeces could help explain why ancestors of modern birds survived the mass extinction.

🌟Whimsical Sparkly Cat Momo✨ I took a page out of my own book from years ago with this colour palette. Wanted to try a softer style and found the Mintbush brush in Procreate. It felt like I was sculpting and painting, pushing around texture. Print: www.goodmoodprints.com/products/whi...

A digital drawing of a white cat in a blue-purple dress floating in a sparkly void. The cat holds a staff with an 8-point star at the end that glows. The cats eyes are closed with a content expression. The whole painting has a very soft fuzzy style.

Kank australis, a new species of dinosaur from southern Patagonia #pixelart #ドット絵 #SciArt #paleoart

Pixel art of Kank australis, a raptor-like dinosaur with a long bill, small feathered arms, brown-red body, long legs and a long black and grey feathered tail. It is stood on a small piece of grassy land emerging from the water around it, ready to lunge its head to catch fish. Around it are Patagonian wetlands with mountains and a dull evening sun.

Hello #Portfolioday! I'm Anine, an illustrator based in Scotland, and I'm looking for work - email me if you think I'd be a good fit for your project ✨ 💻 www.anineillustration.com 💌 anine@anineillustration.com (I also do private commissions, email me for that too)

A drawing of a hot air balloon above overgrown ruins. A group of sailors is looking at birds through telescopes.

A drawing of some items: A diamond ring with a snake design - a flint knife wrapped with string - a gold chain with small gold bees - two clay toy dog figurines - a cup shaped like the head of a horse or donkey - a horse shaped candle holder - two crab apples - a votive loaf of bread (shaped like a hand) on a plate, with a bowl of salt and a lit candle.

Three small drawings: One of a shrine under a pine tree with a stone inside, one of a salamander on the forest floor, one of a coastal path with stone steps, two tall trees, stone columns and two hikers in the distance. The overall feel is very late summer to early autumn.

A drawing of some things you might find in a kitchen: a tea towel, a bundle of herbs (parsley, thyme, sage, bay), two wooden spoons, some butcher's twine, a cutting board, a big knife, a candle stub on a little plate, a ceramic jar, some cardamom pods, a garlic bulb (bisected).

Hay game devs it’s a rough time so let’s try celebrating what you done as of late, share your games, your experiments, dev art or simply little experiments and what you learnt. Let’s celebrate what you achieved without LLM or genAI. And try to share and encourage who ever feels like taking part.

Last year I did a semester at Smart School with Sam Weber that challenged my process in a way I'm still getting to grips with. I've not shared much of the work I did as I'm still figuring things out, but here's one of the pieces I finished. "Echo" watercolour & acrylic 9 x 12" #traditionalart #art

a painting of a very stylised big cat figure, its body curved around the silhouette of a woman, whose arm is in its mouth. Its body is covered in patterns like stripes, spots and circles where the woman's silhouette bleeds into the dark background. She is arched backwards and the lines of her body help outline the curves of the cat's leg, body and mouth

See ya

Two panel comic. Panel 1: two Tiktaaliks (an extinct, 375-million-year-old fish that was the evolutionary link between fish and the first four-legged land animals) sit at the floor of a shallow sea bed. One of them angrily says to the other, “hey! You still owe me 20 bucks!” Panel 2: the other Tiktaalik, to avoid paying $20, emerges from the water and steps onto land for the first time in history. The first tiktaalik is absolutely stupefied.
