BasiliskArt has moved to basiliskart.bsky.socialさんのイラストまとめ

hi #LateNightWrite!

Collecting and finding fossils brings me joy, but in terms of creating it's seeing my characters realised both in prose and visual. I've become increasingly happier about how I depict Yara and the things she does https://t.co/tTexArLEoM

I'll round it off with a personal favourite and some speculation: Beipiaosaurus.

B. was a therizinosaurid from china, and the only specimen with melanosomes preserved was a juvenile. The colours on the neck feathers were revealed to be brown. (art PaleoNeolithic)

Borealopelta! an exquisitly preserved Ankylosaur from North America, we know thanks to its preserved pigment cells that it was countershaded: rust red on top and sand-ish brown on the bottom!

still remember making this kinda fun concept. It never went anywhere but I'm still fond of it

I can scarcely believe it’s the same girl

My MC is a young woman named Yara! she's an autistic woman with a special interest in dragons, which ironic considering she hunts them. She's muscular and could probably benchpress you, but likes her hair long and is terrified of her nose getting crooked https://t.co/gSNre1D8C4

QRT with your art improvement!

It's kind of balanced between Yara and Morgan! Yara is my main girl, an autistic woman who learns to hunt dragons. (the blonde)
Morgan has ADHD (at least that's the intent) and she's a snarky teenager for most of what she's appeared in. (the black haired girl) https://t.co/LL617V0L2N

Yara appreciation post because I lov my main girl and I should get back to writing her

Hey #ChaosChat! I’m Basil, I’m an amateur palaeontologist aside from being a writer! I’m also an artist, and I obsess over Yara, my main character! https://t.co/4EhRcCfttt
