For #FossilFriday: new #paleoart of Doggerland (a landmass in what's now the North Sea) with some of its characteristic Pleistocene fauna: a (modern) walrus, mammoths, spotted hyenas, cave lions, swans and great auks. Painted for @SMTrust's 'Ancient Seas' exhibition.
Almost forgot #FossilFriday: here's some #paleoart of azhdarchid pterosaurs wandering over a riverbank, seen from above. Their pacing matches that of the azhdarchid ichnofossil, Haenamichnus, one of the only pterosaur tracks with an ID beyond 'pterosaur indet'.
For #FossilFriday: a rarely seen comparison between giant azhdarchid pterosaurs and a large male giraffe (yes, they can get this big!). Pterosaurs are Arambourgiania (left) and Hatzegopteryx - slender and robust takes on the giant azhdarchid bauplan. @Gizz47 is the scale bar.
A series of plesiosaur #paleoart for #FossilFriday: Jurassic marine species Attenborosaurus and Plesiosaurus, and the coastal/freshwater adapted Leptocleidus. It's very cool to think some plesiosaurs would be visible in rivers, lakes and estuaries.
For #fossilfriday: Amazing specimen of two Seymouria (Permian amphibians) from the Bromacker quarry in Germany. I recently had the opportunity to visit the collections where these guys were stored, and they are just one example of many cool fossils that were found at the quarry.
New blog post for #FossilFriday: Can we predict the horn shapes of fossil animals? Perhaps, with enough data, we have more insight on horn sheath shape than we realised. Stars Triceratops, because it's a post about horns. Also features new #paleoart!

For #FossilFriday: it's my fav section thru the lower jaw of Captorhinus aguti. An early reptile with multiple rows of teeth!
For #FossilFriday: the Life Aquatic, #paleoart edition. Portions of new paintings of fossil whales, fishes and inverts (agnathan is WIP).
For #FossilFriday: #Paleoart of Tusoteuthis, a giant coeloid from the Late Cretaceous, meeting Troodon on a beach.
#FossilFriday: #paleoart of Triassic reptiles, nature's most sensible animals. Hypuronector, Tanystropheus, Sharovipteryx & Cartorhynchus.
For #FossilFriday: new blog post: the life appearance of plesiosaurs, discussed. #paleoart https://t.co/E9mK4yY3JA
#FossilFriday: my #sciart #illustration of a #trilobite for National Geo Mag (with @RichardFortey's help) years ago
#FossilFriday: my older #sciart that happens to portray both "fleshy" and "lizardlike" lips on two compared dinos
