by virtue of being a sapient character I have a vague recollection of, Tater gets hit with the “drawn from memory and vibes” beam
Tater tot, Photon Bytez’s Alvarezsaur OC, a brown birdish thing with a collar and crystal around his neck.

This picture was inspired by the traces of theropod leks (Ostendichnus) we have from the early Cretaceous. They were made by a small-to-mid-sized North American biped that may have made these scrapes as a mating thing. #paleoart #sciart #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

I've seen those videos of puma taking down guanaco and honestly? that puma had to damn fight for it personally i would probably consider that more impressive than tiger v. boar, not because of size disrepancy but just because of the rodeo bullshit the puma had to put up with to subdue the prey

A juvenile Fona rushes through a group of lekking Nedcolbertia along the Western Interior coast. My overall guiding vibe when doing this one was “child lost at a convention.” #paleoart #sciart #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart
A small ornithopod Fona rushes through a flock of birdlike Nedcolbertia scraping nests and bickering at one another on a Cretaceous coastline.

I wanted a very moody scene centered around a big old looming figure. Arthropod undersides are not something I typcially draw; I'm glad people make references for this sort of material. #paleoart #sciart #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

legit...it's funny because I'd also argue I'm the most precise with actual pencil and paper, which is comedic because that's basically the same thing as drawing on mobile lol

Interestingly I’ve noticed that the works I do on my iPad are noticeable different from the ones I do on my laptop, so in a sense it kind of feels like being two different artists sometimes lmaooo

Anatomy I tried getting relatively consistent but the most rigour was of course applied to the one in front. I had fun playing with the style, I’ve been playing around for the past few years to find a style that just really Works for me and I think this is a sort of representation of that.

Thylacines are tough but cool. You have a lot less leeway with modern animals, of course, because there exists photographic reference; plus mammal head shapes take a lot more effort to capture (they're fleshy)! #paleoart #sciart #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

www.latimes.com/science/scie... only just learned this but what do you MEAN scientists made photosynthesis but more efficient?? this feels like some interesting ass spec evo shit. plant spec is always hard because so many of their revolutions are big ones...
latimes.com
Scientists improve on photosynthesis by genetically engineering plants
Ever since Thomas Malthus issued his dire prediction in 1789 that population growth would always exceed food supply, scientists have worked to prove him wrong.

Legit. Though, I think it was best done with Bjorn and then the big rex in chapter 3. I think the Tarbosaurus in chapter 4 would have been better as an amoral survivor, three big carnivore final bosses that get a sick joy out of domination feels like too much of a pattern to me.

Digital drawing. A burst of hands/forelimbs of a variety of terrestrial vertebrates emerges from the fin of a mostly unseen fishapod in the bottom left corner. The forelimbs gradually point more towards the upper left corner as you move up through the bunch.

It's probably not a rodent, it has four front incisors! But its mouth arrangement is nevertheless based on a naked mole rat's. I imagined this guy using its chisel teeth to gnaw through shells, like a worse-looking otter. #specbio #art #artist #creaturedesign #artistonbluesky #originalart

This is also a giant biarmosuchian based on “Eotitanosuchus” - which is apparently just a Biarmosuchus that’s very large. If Ivantosaurus is as fragmentary as it seems to be it might be possible that this is also a Biarmosuchus?
