decked out in her breeding plumage, arizona's most eligible dilophosaurus debutante takes a much-needed rest by a stream. who knew that competing for a mate could be such an exhausting endeavour? #paleoart comm by @literallymiguel.bsky.social

I've been spending a lot more time in Blender recently! Here's a Torosaurus - all movements somewhat exaggerated as I just wanted to play around with the rig and the damped motion of the tail

Art vs. artist 2025 Thanks for following along! Happy holidays! #artvsartist #dinosaur #paleoart

Excited to announce that my second manuscript, “Fossilised Melanosomes Reveal Colour Patterning in A Sauropod Dinosaur” has been published in @royalsociety.org !! Diplodocus scales are complex and diverse, and it turns out their color patterning was even more so. A 🧵🦕 1/26

Ol' Salty, Pirate Saltasaurus. A bit of silliness which became a personal favourite. Sepia ink over blue pencil on Strathmore grey toned paper, 110 × 143 mm, from 2013. #ArtAdventCalendar

'Everything has its proper name. I shall call it “Armadillo” till I found out the real one…’ Illustration for The Beginning of the Armadillos, from Rudyard Kipling’s Just So Stories, published by The Folio Society, 2012. Watercolour on Saunders Waterford hp, 140 x 240mm. #ArtAdventCalendar

Had some time off, so I made something fun and wildly out there just in time for Thanksgiving.

Sitting in the small hours in my pyjamas, wrapped in a shawl, freezing my toes off, and painting things in red and gold while listening to Bach's Jesu, meine Freude. Why, it feels like Christmas already. 😬

Anchiornis. Detail from a drawing from 2019. A new paper by Kiat et al indicates that Anchiornis probably couldn't fly. (But I still think it might have been capable of 'falling with style'.) www.nature.com/articles/s42...

Some Over the Garden Wall for this month’s riso print subscription, because I would love to have a frog sing to me

Sketching Triceratops for a commission I am currently working on These are sketches of Triceratops in various positions. It is always fun to go back to Triceratops #paleoart #dinosaur #art

A bit of silliness from 2021. Kong's first line is taken directly from the 2007 BBC adaptation of Elizabeth Gaskell's Cranford.

When reconstructing an critterthis poorly known, I tend to go for a more conservative appearance, taking into account relatives from similar times/places. Unfortunately, footprints are incredibly difficult to assign, and ornithopod footprints aren't dissimilar from theropod ones.

Please welcome Cariocecus bocagei! A new, basal hadrosauroid from the early Cret. of Portugal! This guy is known from a pretty nice skull, which makes it one of the best ornithopod fossils from Iberia so far! I loved during this little portrait for main author Filippo Bertozzo...

I’ve just backed @emilyhare.co.uk ‘s new book, and I have a feeling that a LOT of my followers will want to do the same! @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/art...

Stegosaurus #paleoart

Cover to my first art book collection Carbon Based. Hoping people will dig it & hoping it’ll allow me to catch up on some things & hopefully seek relief for my back problems I’m always whining about. Thanks guys! www.kickstarter.com/projects/oni...

I once posed the question on the other place, "What, for you, is a 'typical' bird?" The sparrow was the most common answer. It was mine, too. I see them less often these days in London, but they were in overwhelming abundance in my childhood in Chiang Mai.

Ok… so the cat is out of the bag and I can FINALLY start talking about this. I just confirmed with Tim I can say that I did a lot of concept art, like this baby Spinosaurus, for the new docuseries #SurvivingEarth coming out in 2026! So excited for you guys to see this!

Shri rapax is the second member of the genus Shri and it is characterized by a shorter skull and robust hands with very powerful claws, especially that of the pollex (much larger than those previously known from other dromaeosaurs) #paleoart #dinosaurs

Pied Peahen & Peonies Gouache & acrylic gouache on MDF coaster, 98 mm. This piece ended up taking a long time for what was supposed to be relatively ‘simple.’ 😅 The peahen’s neck is actually more teal-blue-green, but neither my phone camera nor my scanner were equal to capturing this. 1/4

The dapples were time consuming enough that I apparently decided to pursue the same approach for the grass. 🙃🤡

This is such a fun pose but WHERE does the other leg go

After the NZ piece we continued tonight with Megalosaurus on the Irish coast (a wish), Saurolophus with a nasty facial wound and a new Bear Gulch fish Apholidotus. #paleoart #sciart #paleostream
