Four pages of dragon sketches.

Continuing my recent trend of #Yanliao beasties, here's an updated, more serious attempt at #Jeholopterus for #FossilFriday!!! The camouflaged colouration is based in #Ginkgo bark, which would have grown in contemporary forests. #paleoart #paleontology #sciart #pterosaur #Jurassic #paleobotany

A fantastic artist and great human being. Follow Luke; commission Luke; be like Luke. 👇

I drawed a dinosaur. #SciArt

were gorgonopsians fluffy? while i'm inclined to say no, a lack of concrete evidence leaves room for interpretation, such as this wonderful model by fabrizio lavezzi

Modern euphractine armadillos sometimes hunt vertebrates as big or even bigger than them, this is taken to an extreme in Macroeuphractus (TW: Paleoart gore)

First quick paleoart sketch for #Paleoctober2025 with the Cretaceous insect Libanoculex. #Paleoart #Paleoctober #Libanoculex

A Brown House Snake (Boaedon fuliginosus). I had a lot of fun working with this species when I was a young warthog back in the 80's, so it was awesome to see one in the wild. Harmless consumers of small vertebrates. KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. #herps #snakes #NaturePhotography 🌿

Good morning! 🪶

Finally got the Welsh Red Dragon finished

I’ve posted a new update for backers of my last Kickstarter. I know a lot of them are on Bluesky, so I’m putting it here as well m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQzB...

Say hello to Zavacephale, a new early Cretaceous pachycephalosaur Congrats to all the authors! #dinosaur #paleontology

What if Oviraptor really was the bad guy after all..? More seriously, being a protective parent and an ovivore are not mutually exclusive, so Oviraptor’s controversial name might be appropriate after all. Anyway, a new illustration from me. #SciArt

Very happy that I decided to try a Huion tablet and Clip Studio Paint.

Bloody, broken but not defeated, Proceratosaurus was a tyrannosauroid dinosaur from the middle Jurassic, living in what is now the UK. Like all carnivores, it probably led a very tough life, something that I’ve tried to reflect in this new illustration.

Dragons: the smaller they are, the stranger they become. These dragons are especially fond of the damp, quiet corners of the forest where people seldom tread. So next time you’re off the beaten trail, look more closely at the leaves around you. Who knows what you might find…

Drawing dragons, day after day. A few more of the approximately six hundred drawings for my new book. Am I seeing dragons in my sleep at this point? Yes. Yes I am. 😵‍💫

As we're all taught, you can (usually) only directly date the age of a rock if it cooled from lava. But here, scientists have dated dinosaur eggs, using uranium-lead ratios in the calcite. Hugely exciting, maybe groundbreaking. My take @science.org www.science.org/content/arti...

NEW VIDEO! Graham Linehan was arrested last week for comments openly inciting both physical and sexual violence against trans women for using the women’s bathroom, leading us to wonder whether J.K. Rowling could face similar consequences for her own hate speech or if Linehan is just a distraction.

Kostensuchus atrox, one of the coolest discoveries from this year, and the best peirosaurid crocodyliform yet found in my opinion very innocently running up to play with an Isasicursor! how wholesome! #paleoart

Velociraptor portrait. #SciArt

The Telegraph alone has published FIVE articles about obsessive ‘gender critical’ transphobe, Graham Linehan, in the last 24 hours!!! All of which are glossing over his abuse and painting him as some sort of poor put-upon ‘free speech’ martyr! 😣 He’s a dysfunctional BULLY! 😖

A dinosaur AND a dragon. Pendraig milnerae (Pendraig = “chief dragon” in Welsh) was discovered in 1952, not far from where I live, but only named in 2021 after being found in storage by Angela Milner and Susannah Maidment. Anyway, here’s my new depiction of a true Welsh dragon.

Aegyptopithecus zeuxis #sciart

Result of the Jialingjiang Formation #paleostream! This might be one of my favorite Triassic formations, although I might be biased because I love hupehsuchians and this formation just manages to hold all fot them.

Microraptorians were among the most interesting dromeosaurs. Most were small, but some like Changyuraptor got to roughly turkey sized, which is not small at all for an animal that was likely gliding/flying #paleoart #dinosaurs #sciart
