@ildarotyrannus There's subjectivity to mptv's insertion. Mine is perhaps a more conservative option, inserting across the angular similar to Gignac et al. 2012 and Cost et al. 2019 (attached). Other recons show surrangular ridge insertion, and wrap-around jugal insertion has also been suggested

I don't know if I've ever actually done one of these before... but hey, #ArtVsArtist.

@triceratopsian @king_tyranno For example, here's how that same model looks from a more realistic, more-or-less eye level perspective. Still very rotund of course, but not quite as extreme as the flattened orthographic view might make it seem.

Picking only four was pretty hard and I'll probably change my mind in an hour or so but: https://t.co/emjGy8cD3s

#FossilFriday musings related to my current research. In living archosaurs epiphyseal cartilages can extend limb bone length from between less than 1% to more than 10%! This has big implications for our modelling of joint kinematics and how we interpet plausible ranges of motion.

Back when I was first starting to get to grips with 3D modelling I did a lot of work on apes.

These are all from mid-late 2014. I'm tempted to revisit them with my current expanded knowledge of the medium.

I've never talked about this on twitter, but I really love apes.

6 years ago, I played around with the idea of faithfully adapting The War of the Worlds into animation, a motion comic, or something similar.

I didn't get very far as other priorities soon took over, but I recently found these rough thumbnail sketches. They seemed worth sharing!

@MetTiinA I like this one from a 2015 paper by Allen et. al. It's not applicable everywhere, especially because of how weird croc coracoids are and due to taxa-specific discrete differences in orgins/insertions, but I think it's one of the best references for the major groups in Archosaurs

Another day at the home office, another photogrammetric model completed. This is the proximal end of a Chasmosaurus radius. The full forelimb will be articulated and ready for muscle reconstruction very soon!
