My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... In 2019 I built a life-size Protoichthyosaurus for Lapworth Museum (University of Birmingham). It was partly built in my workshop and partly open to public view in the museum. Here's the built Part 3. #Art #Painting #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #DigitalArt #Illustration #Dinosaurs #Birds #Reptiles #Palaeontology #Paleontology #Ichthyosaur

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... In 2020 I illustrated LOCKED IN TIME, written by Dr Dean Lomax. Here's my "Portrait of malignance" painting, depicting a Telmatosaurus with an ameloblastoma on its lower jaw. https://cup.columbia.edu/book/locked-in-time/9780231197281 #Art #Painting #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #DigitalArt #Illustration #Dinosaurs #Birds #Reptiles #Palaeontology #Paleontology

It is exciting to see snippets of Surviving Earth coming out from Impossible Pictures (see: https://www.instagram.com/picturesimpossible/) One of the clips released features Arctodus, the "short faced bear", here is my official design sheet, which was used by the production team. #Art #Painting #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #DigitalArt #Illustration #Palaeontology #Paleontology #SurvivingEarth #ImpossiblePictures #Arctodus #ShortFacedBear #TheDinosaurs #Dinosaurs

i fr enjoyed this one cuz the colour combo is one of my most favoured plus spinosaurus and alike dinos are just cool. used RGBA Wet and defaulr brushes and applied heavily over and over again in small sizes, to make the paint look kinda thick and with no huge brushstrokes - to make it look like made with wee brushes. still experimenting with digital oil paints, aye. character belongs to https://artfight.net/~Little_Drifted #art #digitalart #dinosaur #spinosaurus #dino #dinoart #paleoart #mastoart #artistsonmastodon #krita #illustration #artfight #artfight2026 #artfight2026teammystery

The third and final image from our Steam demo's intro! Even when Prati was small, she would eagerly read, watch and listen to everything her handlers gave her access to! It's no small wonder then that she's able to echo back nearly anything she hears.

Here's the next image from the Steam demo intro! All of the dinosaurs from Sawyer's generation were created with even greater expectations than the previous. As early as each of them could remember, even playtime involved testing and evaluation.

this was an experiment of combining chalk and oil brushes. honestly it went not as planned and though it has a whole load of rendering - 'tis too huge to be a presented on the web. like, 'tis ~6440x1900px, i cant rescale it without losing the quality and details (aka rendered feathers etc). which is unfortunate and i should start using smaller canvases. anyways, i uploaded the original full file to MEGA ( https://mega.nz/file/UicxnIbB#3WnIMYX7LPnKXl5_HLd5Uz7H7d2Cwu6QHzk9Y8QMygY ) so you're welcome to download and zoom it in, as I had to shrink it for the web and now it looks awful. am kinda sad cuz 'tis not even useful for portfolio cuz of this resolution and as 'twas a free work during the art fight event 'tis practically not useful at all (aka i did not even get paid or cant use it for my own profile pics as the character isnt mine etc). dunno who would ever need to see it in my portfolio, who needs all these overrendered details that are visible only when zoomed in on PC. like, 'tis not even a masterpiece (the pose is too static imo, i see lots of imperfections, average work in general) to do so. i will attach some close-up screenshots ig, the one with the bird is my fave part. the bird was the least rendered and yet i love it the most here. the character belongs to https://artfight.net/~paleobitz i was fascinated by the lore and the design. aye, kinda #rant but mb someone will be interested in this work and the story behind it - i can never know... #utahraptor #raptor #dinosaur #pathoftitans #digitalart #art #horror #macabre #paleoart #illustration #mastoart #artistsonmastodon #artfight #artfight2026 #artfight2026teammystery

During the intro of our Steam demo, you can see scenes from some of our character's early lives, each being raised by a team of researchers. Daisy here acquired an appreciation for gardening from her caretaker, though she did outgrow her favorite watering can eventually...

At the enclosures where Sawyer grew up, all the Utahraptors were enrolled in an intensive corporate leadership training program. Sawyer strived to meet and exceed every single evaluation criteria. However, that didn’t lead to much popularity with her peers. More concept art for Clever Girls!
