I really enjoy revisiting specimens and making new, better looking images out of them. Here is Labidesthes sicculus, a brook silverside. Really neat and, in my opinion, quite underappreciated. https://t.co/U6VBjNkRmT

New Nature paper on insect declines. Interesting read. But rage at the part about identifying specimens (or lack of it). No taxonomists available?? I bet there were but was lack of funds to pay for this. Severally limits interpretation again as just 2 orders were properly studied

For here's some of the newly-named azhdarchid Cryodrakon made several years before the specimen was named. The two older images here are from 2009 (a whole decade ago!) and the newer, prettier version is from 2016.

I was very fortunate to draw three Puffin specimens at this week. These beautiful birds are also known as sea parrots or clowns of the sea.

One of the unusual for me color palletes(pinks) I acctually liked and was proud. Both color and dresss design.

It was a rendition on my OC as a specimen of a fictional race.

Ancient: my mum loves fossils. She gave me one for my birthday once and was delighted by the specimen she found. When she mentioned it to friends they were all “?!!” And she was all “who WOULDN’T like a fossil??” I have a pretty great mum. https://t.co/7MXnAuiWJZ

I turned myself into a snake 🖤🐍

You can identify this creature by it's messy brown hair, glasses, and dark clothing. It's almost always found with other snakes and spends all it's time drawing and eating. This male specimen is a little weird but a friendly creature.
