"There is a meat shortage" sounds like a Gwar song title.

I like biomimetic, I like 3D printing, and I like seaurchins, so 3D printable stractures derived from reproducing seaurchin spines is very much up my alley. (Also, this study shows that seaurchins might have an electric sense). 🧪🌊 Link: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Sureshot having a bit of a sprint. #transformers #macadam

Little drawings of sea creatures 🦑 I wanted to explore watercolor + colored pencils technique, but after the 1st one (the turtle) I switched to watercolor pencils instead of watercolor for the base layer and I like it more.

I have actually fixed the shop now, so it shouldn't all say Sold Out now.

Fantastic illustration of the two best waves known to science.

Very cool. Looks like a seismic survey in a basin with neat stratigraphy.

I've switched to Davinci Resolve to replace adobe Premiere. It's really good and does everything I need. Pretty amazing that it's free. Also, I'm really enjoying Clip Studio Paint. I've only had it a few days and I can't envision going back to adobe now. Wish I had switched sooner.

Does anyone know where I can source some free crowd noise? Like people talking in a small venue before a band starts playing? Maybe some cheering and booing too? #Audio #Recording

Not cool of geo curiosity

Silent Hill: Spring Lamb.

I managed to get another alt mode out of Legacy #Skullgrin I call this one... CHIKIN CARNAGE. Considering he's supposed to be a Z-list character and toy, I've had more fun with him than any other recent figure. #Transformers #Decepticon #ToyPhotography

This is one of a series of prints of Opabinia, 🧪🐡 an extinct prehistoric creatures which lived during the Cambrian geological time period, carved by hand in linoleum, printed onto lovely white paper with bark inclusions and collaged with Japanese papers in different colours and patterns, 🧵

Ancient worlds carved and shaped by a long lost civilization.

Some new TRIBAL work. Vehicle shenanigans.

Coming Tuesday at #PalaeoPERCS we will be joined by Holly-Anne Turner from University College Cork, Ireland. Sign up here: paleopercs.com/participate/

Here's a fun question for paleo folks here: what do *you* think is one of paleontology's biggest U-turns?

Hi, I’m Emma, an illustrator, comic artist, and sculptor with a propensity for drawing dinosaurs, monsters, aliens, and spaceships, but especially dinosaurs. I'm working on a sci-fi story with all of the above. Except dinosaurs, oddly no dinosaurs.

The beautiful preservstion of trilobite compound eyes will never cease to amaze me. On this little 400ish million year old Phacops you can see all the little lenses - each one a rigid calcite mineral crystal! Together they had excellent 360° vision, perfect for finding lunch on the seafloor.

Fossil flower from the Parachute Creek member of the Green River formation. About 40-50 million years old. #fossilfriday

LET'S GOOO!!! Scientists just announced that they brought Trilobites back! After aeons of slumber, it's time to give them back the world they rightfully deserve :) That's why they're releasing a few million out into the wild!

Trying out Clip Studio Paint for the first time to wean myself off adobe products. I'm enjoying CSP a lot after just a few hours. Some interesting tools that will be a help. This generic #Ichthyosaur is another future sticker design #Paleoart #SciArt

It's been one of them days/ weeks/ months/ years... #transformers #ToyPhotography

Lots and lots of Trieres mobiliensis/regia in my plankton sample last week. I love it when they form chains. #marineplankton 🦑

Does any one else remember #Multimac toys? Super cheap modular sci fi friction powered space vehicles. I used to build all kinds of things with them. They were so cheap, you could even get them from the scoop-a-market.

Very interesting and relevant to our recent conversation @russellgarwood.co.uk

Artists, quote with something silly!

Sometimes these are funny and relatable. But other times, it's just my life.

I'm #dyslexic too. I can't read or write cursive. I remember those horrible lessons trying to force myself to write in a way that was totally alien to how my brain works. Then not being able to re-read what I had written. I can type pretty quickly though. My handwriting is a "print" style and this..
