Ugh, still no time for social media thanks to a manic workload. Here's some driveby of the Brazilian spinosaurid Irritator predating pterosaurs, from 2018, to keep my feed from drying up entirely.

A salute to ichthyosaurs this splendid beasts that I've had an excuse to restore several times recently. Marine reptiles are really fun to draw and these have been a blast to work on. Here's Temnodontosaurus, Ichthyosaurus, Shonisaurus and Leptonectes.

New at for the giant flippered, grumpy-faced and long-snouted ichthyosaur Leptonectes tenuirostris. There's a hi-res version and heaps of similar content awaiting you at Patreon for just $1 a month. https://t.co/PXlmg1u290

Here's my best take on this (not the most helpful view, sorry!). The take home is that Pteranodon does not - to our knowledge - deviate from all the normal stuff we'd say about pterodactyloid posing and soft-tissues. So, upright limbs, brachiopatagium attaching at ankle etc.

I have no idea when was so I probably missed it, but here's of one of my favourite Cenozoic dinosaurs anyway: the near-goose Conflicto antarcticus. These birds look modern, but are ancient, living immediately after the extinction of non-bird dinosaurs.

I was away from my desk last week, but now see that the paper on gregariousness in cf. Teratophoneus has landed. This site has been known about for some time - I produced magazine cover about it for in 2019 (full article: https://t.co/bdOMzPzCzt).

My brain is away with early Jurassic marine reptiles this so here's the mural I did of Rhomaleosaurus and friends for in 2018. We put this together pretty quickly - I wanted more fish and invertebrates but time wasn't on our side.

Yesterday I posted a 'realistic' Kong to celebrate the release of here's a 'realistic' Godzilla from 2018. G's design is implausible given that it spends so much time in water, so I looked to real semi-terrestrial dinosaurs - penguins - for inspiration here.

OK, I'm super late for but I've been so busy that time moves at a different speed in my brain - it's still 2010, right? Here's some of Mosasaurus (2021) and Prognathodon (2020 and 2017) to join in the fun.
