#Deinonychus arms. I made a whole sequence showing reconstruction of the bones/muscles/feathers for my talk at #TetZooMCon, just realised I've never shared any of it.
Results from the post-#Tetzoomcon #paleostream
Erjiecaris, Patriofelis, Kurupi and Tupandactylus.

Huge thanks to everyone who participated in #TetZooMCon -- stressful from my end but mostly a success, and what amazing talks! Write-up to follow at #TetZoo when time allows. Thanks again to all attendees!
Well, it's 10-13am the day after #TetZooMCon and it FINALLY looks at if the afterparty has finished. Well played, well played, all, but you didn't beat last year's record :) See you next year!
#TetZooMCon2021: big thanks to @TetZoo & @thejohnconway, not just for planning & running another great #TetZooMCon but also for sorting me out... Zoology, ecology, palaeontology, speculative biology, conservation & evolution with fantastic sciart & palaeoart (& aliens) thrown in.
THE BEASTS OF GEVAUDAN: UNKNOWN MAN EATERS? François-Louis Pellisier at #TetZooMCon 2021. Unpacking the mystery, dissecting the evidence. What was it/they that killed people? Probably wolves...🐺?

THE CRONCH "CAT": DIET AND PALEOECOLOGY OF PATRIOFELIS ULTA. @Laelaps at #TetZooMCon 2021. Not a cat. With big teeth. Probably ate lots of turtles... a durophagore? #palaeoecology #paleoecology #fossils #Patriofelis #Eocene #palaeontology #paleontology #durophagore
I touched very briefly on color combos to avoid for colorblind folk:
Red/Green
Green/Brown
Green/Blue
Blue/Gray
Blue/Purple
Green/Gray
Green/Black
You *can* use these color combos, but use contrasting shades or tones. ("Nemegt Sunrise" normal & simulated Protanopia) #TetZoomCon
For those of you who were unable to make it for my #paleoart session, I will be posting a breakdown of my discussion today on color theory and color blindness in this thread - complete w/the visuals that I was unable to share bc screensharing was broken for my room #TetZoomCon
Behold, a doodle I did of a feathered dinosauroid done in response to a prompt back in 2014 #TetZooMCon
Hasty sketch of my Beast of Gevaudan: a giant weasel!
