We have a new dude walking in the #Upper #Cretaceous of #Spain. Welcome to #Pareisactus evrostos. This new taxon were recovered as a member of Rhabdodontida. Congrats @AlbertPrietoMa1 #dinosaurs #españa #science #paleontology
Results from the landscape #paleostream!
Nemegt in winter, Solnhofen , African rift valley, Messinian crisis...

The size and color of this crest is speculative, but I'm pretty happy with it. Perhaps the vibrance is influenced by how much carotenoids an individual consumes, as is the case w/ flamingos. #Cycnorhamphus #paleontology #paleoart #pterosaurs #sciart #scientificillustration
Line drawing of the Jurassic #pterosaur Cycnorhamphus. I really like how this is turning out so far, I forgot how much fun the textures of pterosaurs can be once you get past the nightmare of proportions & posing. #paleoart #paleontology #sciart #scientificillustration
A admirer of U-Haul graphics asked me about the details that went into even the smallest areas in each graphic. #paleontologist #paleontology #panda #redpanda #science #illustrator #adobeillustrator #Tennessee #fossils #excavations #illustration #vectorart #vector #vehiclewrap
A portrait of a young female #velociraptor that we have decided to let in the compound to take care of a small #mesozoic mammal infestation. The #scientist have affectionally named her #Ginger because Ginger snaps. #dinosaur #paleontology #illustration
The integument & length of the tusks are speculative, & for the coloration I looked at some living animals and ended up way too close to them (not gonna say which though, lol). I like the unintentional metallic flavor it's got though #paleoart #Lisowicia #paleontology #sciart
A more #avian version of my #Plateosaurus Picture. I felt the old one looked too reptilian. #dinosaur #prehistoric #paleontology #triassic #paleoart #illustration
Unscience an animal?

So over winter winter break I played some D&D with friends, and had my players fight an ancient dino-dragon queen. When you're friends with a paleontology nerd, expect some science in your fantasy
Line drawing of that most labyrinthian of ammonites, the Cretaceous Nipponites. I tried to go for a unique appearance for the soft tissue, and ended up with this vaguely octopus-looking, stalk-eyed form that's doing...something with its tentacles. #paleoart #sciart #paleontology
R is for rhynchosaur.
Rhynchosaur was a reptilian parrot beaked pig from the Triassic that ate mainly tubers and roots. (not literally a pig, but a fat lizard none the less)Illustration for @AnimalAlphabets extinct series.

Seems like every new find (or rumor of a new find) indicates a different skin type, so I bet they were very diverse and had structures and textures that don't directly match up to any living animals. #paleontology #sciart #scientificillustration #inostrancevia
Williamsonia! Aka the quintessential member of the Bennettitales, a group of cycad-like seed plants. I did this pretty quickly, so the lighting and detail could be a bit better. #paleoart #paleontology #botany #botanicalillustration #paleobotany
Finished reconstruction of Spinosaurus aegyptiacus!!! I don't do #dinosaurs that often, so I tried to go all-out with this one #paleoart #paleontology #sciart #scientificillustration #art
