SEASON'S GREASONS

#PrehistoricPlanet #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge Homotherium takes on big prey.

I painted a Jurassic classic, #Stegosaurus. 💚

Borrowed the WWD 'novelization' as a kid. I've rewatched WWD over and over at that point, but it blew my mind how much the book ver. expanded on the series 👀 So I ended up writing an Ischigualasto 'New Blood' and Tendaguru(?) 'TotT' before a virus nuked my files 😭

Right, enough messing about with obscure little deep sea weirdos. For Day 18 of #25DaysOfFishmas we've got a fish that I reckon 95% of people reading this will have heard of. This is the sole living member of the Xiphiidae, Xiphias gladius - the swordfish.

#PrehistoricPlanet #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge nails short faced bears so well. There's just this natural feeling about them that is simply...not there in almost all other docus.

Crunch time with adorable Ume! The 10-month-old tapir now weighs 483 pounds. 💗 📹: Keeper Katie

Stay safe out there y'all

wow, it's Shonisaurus, the giant Triassic ichthyosaur!

I swear our top supervisor is out of it today 😆 advocating for no next-year work in chat but encouraging next-year work in the other 😵‍💫

The Frog 🐸 of the Week is the Maluti River Frog (Amietia vertebralis) aka the ICE FROG from South Africa and Lesotho. It gets its due to the frogs and tadpoles often being seen swimming under the ice in the winter months. 📸 Jaime Freeman learn more at buff.ly/CoIEEmH

This is really gross: a book full of plagiarised #paleoart published by a legit UK publisher. As if we don't have enough problems with AI! There is no excuse for the author/artist not knowing better, either: this isn't the first time they've been caught committing major acts of plagiarism.

#PrehistoricPlanet #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge Beyond the domain of Smilodon populator, there was an entire sabertooth planet...

Work for the year's almost wrapped up! I can't believe we're getting to this stage 😣 Excited to be (semi-)free again!

#WWD2025 Giant Arrhinoceratops mood. Impregnable creature...

New at TetZooTowers_collection TikTok... another animal relevant to #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge: Macrauchenia, part 1! www.tiktok.com/@tetzootower...

This is the Variegated squirrel (Sciurus variegatoides), an extant and highly variable species that occurs from southern Mexico to Panama in forest and woodlands of many sorts. 15 subspecies have been named. It features in #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge as >both< a CG asset and a real filmed animal :)

Happy 22nd anniversary to Dinosaur Planet, one of the best paleodocs of all time!

Fantastic palaeoart in a traditional Chinese style, used as a figure in a Royal Society publication, describing a false sabre-tooth feline, Taotienimravus songi. I hope this buckles the trend again "stylised" art in publications and press releases. Art by Yuefeng Song 🐈

#PrehistoricPlanet #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge Me when I try to tackle multiple problems at once but only have the capacity to deal with one single problem:

Just going to leave this here for #TeamBird to check out 😎 #BirdsVsFish

I decided to splash some colors on my Tyrannosaurus portrait, following a popular trend from a certain video on "people art fish". #art #SciaArt #myart #dinosaurs #paleoart #paleontology

Some more tweaks on my Tyrannoaurus mcraeensis after Henry Sharpe's newly released paper on buccal soft tissues #art #SciaArt #myart #dinosaurs #paleoart #paleontology

Hello from the Natural History Museum at night. I'm sure Fern would say hi if she could.

Behold: one of the very strangest Quetzalcoatlus illustrations ever published. This is by Michael Berenstain, from his 1991 book “Flying Dinosaurs” which is terribly named but packed with idiosyncratic and exciting artwork.

[rant] I know you say "just sharing thoughts." But given your high status in the community, I wish you would stop tiptoeing around it and just outright say "This is what we should do."

10. Striped hawkmoth Something in ink this time. Hawkmoths have a shape that reminds me of fighter planes. In my head I imagine them making 'nyoooooom' plane noises to themselves why they fly around. 😂 #SciArt #ArtAdventCalendar

#BlueSkyartShow Theme: #FavoriteThings One of my favorite things is creating art that interacts with light. Glow, reflect, shine, sparkle. Come alive ✨💖✨ #ArtistsOnBlueSky #WomensArtBlueSky #Sculpture #MarineLife 🐡🦑

Warm.

Going back to sketching some triassic iberian fauna with the new guy, Angistorhinus, from the late Triassic of Algarve, Portugal #paleoart #sciart #phytosaur #Angistorhinus #triassic

Maybe this'll help, even though it's not tailored to the courses I'm working on. 😣 uwaterloo.ca/centre-for-t...

#PrehistoricPlanet EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL COMPOSITIONS FROM #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge !

How does one go through checking a whole pile of reports and proposal manuscripts? 😵‍💫 Is there like a guide for teachers out there a a a a

A big, beautiful, bebeh whalefish, drifting with the plankton over the nighttime abyss. Body without the crazy “tapetail” is ~6cm #whalefish #tapetail #deepseafish #deepwater #deepsea #deepseacreatures #larvalfish #blackwater #blackwaterdiving #blackwaterphotography #gug #chrisgug #gugunderwater

LRP Honestly why does the year-end have to be so stressful every time 😭 Can't we just collectively decide to be kind and give each other some several weeks of grace 🫠
