Day 12: Oviraptor It's not technically stealing if it's your own egg, right? #ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #PaleoArt #SciArt #Dinosaur #Raptor #Bird #Blue #Nature #Cute

Day 11: Smilodon This picture is brought to you by me trying to figure out how someone would pick up a kitten if their only option to do so was a big cat mouth with saber canines #ArtAdventCalendar #Art #PaleoArt #SciArt #Paleontology #Pleistocene #Sabertooth #Animal #Cat #IceAge #DigitalArt

Day 10: Hallucigenia Is it the little Cambrian worm who is right-side up, or the world that is upside-down? #ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #Hallucigenia #Cambrian #Paleoart #SciArt #geology #invertebrate #purple #worm

Day 9: Ichthyosaur Apparently the closest living relative to an ichthyosaur is a turtle? Can anyone out there correct me on this? #ArtAdventCalendar #art #DigitalArt #PaleoArt #Ichthyosaur #SciArt #Reptile #Nature #Animal #ocean #blue

Day 8: Inostrancevia It's such a shame that it will be 251 million years before this gorgonopsid can try to fit through a narrow doorway and not realize the bone can't go with them (bonk) #ArtAdventCalendar #paleoart #art #digitalart #SciArt #gorgonopsid #permian #animal #science #dogs

Day 7: Psittacosaurus Say you're on your daily jog through the forest and then this jumps out at you, like so! #ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #dinosaur #paleoart #SciArt #paleontology

Small etiquette notes on correcting my artwork: Ask before correcting stuff please! I might not correct the art directly in the post itself, but may update it behind the scenes for future use Some stuff is stylized/won't be corrected You may share similar animals on my art; credit your sources

Day 6: Dickinsonia Nobody: Absolutely no one: The Ediacaran: Flesh plants. Flesh plants! Great wobbling frisbee beasts! Flesh plants— #ArtAdventCalendar #art #digitalart #paleoart #SciArt #dickinsonia #charnia #geology #science #paleontology

Day 5: Borealopelta I went speculative on the ‘red’ coloration of this extremely well-preserved fossil, and I have little information on the fossilized Cretaceous flower I found other than it sort of looked like a tulip? #dinosaur #art #ArtAdventCalendar #digitalart #paleoart #SciArt

Day 4: Rhamphorynchus The beaks on these guys make me so uncomfortable!… so of course I drew it #ArtAdventCalendar #paleoart #SciArt #pterosaur #digitalart #art

Day 3: Kentrosaurus Gave nighttime coloring a stab for this big critter — otherwise I am going to end up with a lot of green jungle-dwellers in this set #ArtAdventCalendar #art #digitalart #paleoart #dinosaur #SciArt #paleontology #stegosaurus

Day 2: Diplocaulus One of my personal favorites! I love this guy’s head. If he existed I would have to make friends with someone who owned one so I could look at it every day. #ArtAdventCalendar #paleoart #art #digitalart #SciArt #amphibian #animal

I will post an extinct animal every day until the 24th! Day 1: Velociraptor Chomp chomp! This guy was actually as small as a housecat. #artadventcalendar #paleoart #art #digitalart #dinosaur #velociraptor

Hello new followers! If you're bored and like free webcomics, here's mine! It's a complete short story about a ruined world full of alternative energy...and magic doom eels. (Includes detailed transcripts on every page) amphiox.hmcgill.art/comic/amphio... #webcomics #amphiox #comics #indie

Why would a fish god be in a volcano? This Dunkleosteus was consumed by an abyssal vent over 350 million years ago...Before the volcanic island breached the ocean's surface! It is the oldest god in the volcanic pantheon from my game about extinction. #gamedev #art #sciart #paleoart #madewithspine

Artists & Art lovers! Time to get geared up for the biggest art event of the year on Bluesky! Last year we had close to 1500 artists from 25 countries posting original work daily from December 1-24

It’s a ‘purchase 74 gelly rolls for bulk pricing’ kind of day

So far my 2D rigging workflow is like: 1. Attach physics constraints ASAP 2. Wiggle the bone chains around!!! WHEEE ... ... 3. ...Deep regrets 4. Remove physics constraints ASAP

Do any other game artists prefer designing backgrounds and settings to characters? I'm really happy with how my game's tropical islands turned out. (If only all my characters were islands, too!) #gamedev #indie #art #digitalart #nature

Watch out! Dodo attack (Animation from my in-progress game about animals fighting on a volcano) #gamedev #digitalart #animation #dodo #madewithspine

Playing card designs for my roulette game about recently-extinct animals on a volcano! Numbers indicate how far you can move 1 - Wiggle like Hallucigenia 2 - Crawl like Tiktaalik 3 - Leap like Archeopteryx M - Enlist the "help" of monkeys #gamedev #indie #digitalart #design #paleoart #sciart #art

Behold! One of the four ancient gods residing in the volcano-themed game I am making: Quetzalcoatlus northropi This god is the most aggressive member of the volcanic pantheon, so watch out :) #gamedev #art #paleoart #pterosaur #dinosaur #digitalart #spine2D #sciart

My first attempt at a ambiently-animated illustration! With a few more tweaks, this is going to be my volcano game's title screen background. #gamedev #art #animation #illustration #thylacine #mammoth #dodo #tortoise #dinosaur #spine2D #madewithspine

Spent an evening working through a new Amphiox script, titled 'Idolon' for now because that's the second of like three very weird concepts that the reader needs to understand in order for the plot to work The first concept was 'what is an amphiox' so that story was called... amphiox

Sure. You can have a little boiling lava dropped from the sky, as a treat #Gamedev #digitalart #art #animation

I adore how sprite texture packaging looks and this one's giving me so much Halloween energy #gamedev #digitalart

Today I've completed a major game board glow-up! First picture is the very first artwork I developed for my game. Second is the refined, polished new version. Come play on my volcano! #gamedev #art #digitalart #indie #illustration

You can probably guess what happens when you throw a playing card into a volcano If you can't guess...this is what happens #gamedev #animation #digitalart #indie #art

RE: figure drawing discourse, if your style is does not need to depict 3D characters believably inhabiting 3D spaces, focus on silhouette definitions and clarity of story/character The anatomy drills are for people who enjoy doing them, and want to portray the illusion of 3D people on a 2D surface

I'm a 2D gamedev artist working with my spouse to make little games. Our latest one will feature cute animals and the opportunity to murder your friends on top of a volcano! I primarily create layouts and illustrations. I am learning 2D rigging and 2D animation. #portfolioday #illustration #art

Watch out! Dodo attack (Animation from my in-progress game about animals fighting on a volcano) #gamedev #digitalart #animation #dodo #madewithspine

Which animal would you be? Pinta Island Tortoise, Dodo Bird, Woolly Mammoth, or Thylacine? (These are all the player characters in my game about playing roulette on a volcano!) #gamedev #art

I wish I had an original blorbo character that I didn't mind drawing and posting publicly hundreds of times, who was just a big cutie with no other work associated with them

Sky T. rex says 'hi' Sky T. rex is a god who can appear in my roulette-based board game... #gamedev #art #dinosaur

On one hand I would like to apply for this. On the other hand, I maybe just want to see what someone else does with this! It seems fantastic #comics #medieval

It looks like Dodo is very popular! Tortoise is lagging behind even though it has a few takers...so I'll just put this out there: The tortoise has secret rocket launchers ... ...Does that change your vote?

Dodo Meta... what a wonderful phrase... Dodo meta... Ain't no passing craze... It means Game Over, but win anyways It's our place-holding Victory screen Dodo Meta!

The Japanese concept of a 'ghost train' seems to first appear in 1921's 'Night on the Galactic Railroad' by Kenji Miyazawa (hour-long essay goes here) And that's why now in 2025 we have a Magic: The Gathering card depicting a fantasy wrestler about to suplex a train in the middle of a forest
