Calling all Paleoartists! I am assembling a team to reignite a paleoart collab I started years ago. Allow me to reintroduce the Prehistoric Journey Art Collab! A collaborative mural featuring over 100 unique prehistoric animals to choose from. More details below! (1/4)

Liopleurodon ferox, pliosaur that swam in European seas during the Middle and Late Jurassic. Cold porcelain, 1:35 scale. More photos: vitor_silva.artstation.com/projects/4NO... #SciArt #Paleoart

Whoops, all neck!

Hadn't intended to post this but was pretty happy with the colours. A young Galeorhinus cuvieri picks an escort of the batfish, Eoplatax. Beneath are two moonfish, Mene, and the early marine snake Archaeophis. Bottom left is the weird tailless stingray Lessiniabatis. Eocene Bolca Formation, Italy

Spinophorosaurus Middle Jurassic, 167 Ma, Africa I made this using #Blender, my own photos, and digital painting. #Paleoart #SciArt #illustration #3D #dinosaur #sauropod

I'm taking commissions for paleoart in the style of my recent Walking With What If series. If you have a particular animal you'd like to see me draw, whether as a serious attempt at reconstruction or inspired by a particular artist or work of media, now is your chance! Five slots are available!

20-minute #paleostream sketches! Tullimonstrum, Ornithosuchus, and Glaucopsyche xerces (a butterfly extinct in 1940.... yeah that counts for paleostream lol)

corythosaurus

Put some initial colors on it

if we want kids to love reading, we need to return to the ancient texts

lol welp, Three Gorgonopsid Moon everyone! (mostly gorgonops torvus :) ) #sciart #coprolitepost #meme shirt available here jbh.threadless.com/designs/thre... Been a minute since I've painted digitally! Krita isnt half bad :) Fun detour :) #permian #digitalart #krita

Spinosaurus aegyptiacus An animal difficult to do justice with an illustration.

If you see this, post a skeleton

For #FossilFriday here’s part of the type specimen of the Zimbabwean dinosaur Syntarsus, housed in the NHMZ, one of the most abundantly and well preserved early theropods known currently 🦖🇿🇼

The San Diego Natural History Museum has a Pteranodon sundial out front

This should be fun...

Finally fully ditched Twitter, couldn't find any way to deactivate my art RT account but oh well. I guess if folks are wondering where I am, they'll be led over here.

Skeletal reconstruction of UALVP 2, the most complete specimen of Stegoceras validum, after Gilmore (1924).

Forever mad that I lost my keychain of a faience hippo that my grandparents bought in Paris when I was 8 or so...

Multitalented: the NMNH’s mounted Fénykövi elephant and the inhabitants of the now-retired Mesozoic dioramas were created by the same artist: Norman Deaton.

Dinocember Day 4: Asiatyrannus

Normalize shaming auction houses and specimen sellers for NOT explicitly showing their buyers what is real in their mounted specimens, and what is fake-ity fake fake. (They wouldn't get away with this with restored ancient pottery, sculpture, or paintings.)

Results from the Flocking #paleostream Dromaeosaurus, Ceratosuchops, Cetiosaurus and Renenutet

here's today's #Paleostream sketches!!! today we drew Dromaeosaurus, Ceratosuchops, Cetiosaurus, and Renenutet enmerwer (i drew mine being eaten by a Tutcetus)

#Hadvent Day 5: The Death of Bactrosaurus. #SciArt #Paleoart

Wild and weird variety of artiodactyls

Hello! A Pinned post to introduce myself! I am Vitor Silva, a paleoartist from Brazil. I work mainly with digital paintings and traditional sculptures, and will focus mostly on paleoart in this profile (with something different once in a while 😄) My ArtStation gallery: vitor_silva.artstation.com

It's the first time posting something here and I think it's nice to start with this scene from Walking with Dinosaurs I recreated with my 3D model of the Tyrannosaurus rex. Since it’s now been 25 years since the release of the documentary, I took the opportunity to finish the animation 🦖

Throwback to Last American Dinosaurs, which opened 10 years ago this week! This interim exhibit filled the void at the Smithsonian NMNH while the main fossil hall was being renovated. It focused on the Hell Creek ecosystem, with sections on collecting fossils, paleoart, and modern-day extinction.

Drawing the rhinos and associated fauna of the ashfall beds. I would love to recreate this in 3d but I think to do it justice I would need more info and data than currently is available to me

Since I've not done one of these in a while... try to draw Giraffatitan without references.
