I have a big drop of new coming next week, but for now I'm mining the archive again for Here's Mystriosuchus steinbergeri, from 2018. This is probably one of my better paintings - I often don't like looking at older work, but I think this holds up.

For one of the most complicated fossils I had to scan in my career: this on top of the hill in the "field exhibition" at the ! Climbing more than 2 meters above the other skeletons was such an experience! But it was worth it!

Quill knobs! When present, they indicate large wing feathers. BUT, some birds (ostriches, rheas, ducks) have large wing feathers without quill knobs, so their absence doesn’t mean dinosaurs without them were wingless

For here's of Rhamphorhynchus creating Rhamphichnus, simultaneously also creating a sentence with far too many "h"'s. It would be neat to explore more non-pterodactyloid terrestrial locomotion in art, but time is never on my side.

Happy How do you picture a monster? T.C. Weston imagined slimy
