The council are deciding your fate... 👀🦖

More context on this #Artemis II image: * This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right * The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon: ☀️🌍🚀🌕

These are actually coming along quite nicely. Again Pokèmon starter colours because whoops, but they just work so well together!

Babe wake up, the first accurate skeletal reconstruction of the buffalo-iguana called Shringasaurus is out

If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!

Absolutely adorable stuff! Go back them! 💚

Here's Galahadosuchus, a new saltoposuchid from Gloucestershire that I was brought on to illustrate. Congrats to Ewan Bodenham, Stephan Spiekman (@stephanspiekman.bsky.social), Susie Maidment (@tweetisaurus.bsky.social), Paul Upchurch, and Phil Mannion (@pdmannion.bsky.social) on the publication!

It snowed enough to sculpt a fat little tyrannosaurus today!

These are big blanket fort hours I'm afraid

Busy busy busy compiling #DinoConUK 2026 schedule... another packed event with SO much great stuff! Tickets will be on sale THIS MONTH, watch our site for news and updates: www.dinocon.co.uk And follow us at @dinoconuk.bsky.social

A little Ceoptera investigates an odd sight - a Dearc either sunning itself or having an existential crisis. #sciart #paleoart

“Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?”

A shake-up of the dinosaur family tree! Rhabdodontids are not ornithopods. They are ceratopsians. There were horned dinosaurs in Europe! As shown by a new fossil of Ajkaceratops from Hungary! Check out our new study, led by @tweetisaurus.bsky.social ⤵️

Taking off! #paleoart #berensart2026

“Are you ready, kid?” I’ve always loved how Christmas and New Year feel like one continuous season, so I drew this piece to celebrate that. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! 🐴 2026 is the Year of the Horse.

Is anyone else very sad as Boxing Day comes to a close? Leaving family and returning home feels lonely.

Story of my life.

While the paper hasn't come out just yet, the news certainly has. Proud to announce our discovery of color patterning in a sauropod dinosaur. Will go in depth tomorrow.

Very tempting!! Torn between wanting to help out such a wonderful event and wanting to fully participate in said event. A dilemma indeed.

Darwinopterus modularis flaplings getting ready for the big leap 😬🤞 #pterosaur #paleoart #sciart #jurassic

The first episode of #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge was breathtaking, and everything I wanted from paleo docs (minus vague taxonomy?) Ie - is this stunning saber toothed cat Smilodon populator? 🐈🦷

Imagine going to watch the new series of Prehistoric Planet, you have snacks, a heart full of joy to see some of your favourite extinct creatures... and Apple TV is glitchy, and the screen is black... couldn't be me... -screams-

Happy Prehistoric Planet Day to everyone celebrating! 🦣❄️

You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice.

Hello? Who's this?

November 26th can't come soon enough! 💚

Palaeontology friends and community, are there sources to stay up to date on animals such as Pterosaurs? Researching them online is difficult with so many re-classifications and out of date sources.

Genuinely amazing news! I can't wait for it. 💚

Spinosaur Tales by @davehone.bsky.social and @markwitton.bsky.social. I got my hands on it early, and I can't recommend it enough for anybody interested in these enigmatic therapods!

Hey, guys, so it turns out the Spinosaurus holotype wasn’t blown into oblivion, the Germans just sent it to Japan under the shroud of night! #paleosky

Very exciting new study in PeerJ on #azhdarchids, with two new taxa (Gobiazhdarcho and Tsogtopteryx), multiple new clade names and new placements for key taxa... peerj.com/articles/197...

In support of Science, Art, Kindness to counter my sense of malaise over the state of the world these past years, Bluesky seemed a good change: here’s a timelapse of me basecoat painting my Tiktaalik sculpture recently for a new display in Singapore!

Basking spinosaurus🌞 #paleoart nature illustration for an awesome client! #TheDinosaurMann

I re-illustrated #Anchiornis again, and it looks quite a bit different from usual!!! This still matches the known data for this #dinosaur, but I really wanted to avoid it looking copy-pasted this time. I've given a full description of it on my Patreon. #FossilFriday #paleoart #paleontology #sciart

Appeasing cis people etc by pretending to be more like them is such a fruitless endeavor. it’s ok to bark or do whatever the fuck you feel like doing. Have fun

Big sad self doubting hours

So, we finally have more iridescent mammals!!! This is really useful for paleoart as it helps to show what #iridescence on monofilaments looks like, which is difficult to tell from just birds. Now I just need to try and access the paper. share.google/jWVQz8BtmVmY... #paleoart #mammals

I am SO excited about this. My eyes shall stay peeled for for events!

Check out this awesome video that Tom Fishenden captured for us of DinoCon 2025! It was an absolute blast and we will see you all again in 2026! (updates still to come!) To find more of Tom’s work, see the links in the comments.
