I have a new paper out today with Rene and Bruce Lauer with a description of some new and incredibly well-preserved pterosaur soft tissues, including scales from the hands! archosaurmusings.wordpress.com/2025/06/10/n...

I would work in Laras' kitchen and only daydream of Ajahs. Laras is an unsung hero though a bit unreasonable as a boss. #SaveWOT #TheWheelOfTime

Mood: re-listen reaches Knife of Dreams. Let's do this, Galad. #TheWheelOfTime #WotSkies

A thing that occurred to me. If these 3 seasons of The Wheel of Time are all we're ever going to get on TV... I'm so happy I got to see Valda burn. #WotSkies #SaveWoT #TheWheelOfTime

Re-Listening to Lord of Chaos in the hopes we reach Dumai's Wells next season of The Wheel of Time. #WotSkies So many epic moments that still give me chills. "We come!"

Yesterday SW fans got their may the fourth. Today we #WoTSkies get our fifth!

Happy Thanksgiving to those of us here in the US! So to celebrate I give you a very, very big, quadrupedal turkey (sort of). This is the package art I did of Stegosaurus for the new upcoming figure of that genus from the amazing Beast Of The Mesozoic line #paleoart #sciart #dinosaurs #thanksgiving

Please welcome the new pterosaur Skiphosoura bavarica from the Late Jurassic of Europe This amazing darwinopteran is known from an incredibly complete fossil, largely preserved in 3D! Needless to say I was SUPER excited when @davehone.bsky.social commissioned me to reconstruct this amazing animal!

Ooooh, can't wait for the next episode of Terrible Lizards. 🤤

This animal is really important for understanding pterosaur evolution, but let's start with the basics. It's a member of a group called the darwinopterans and at 2m wingspan it's the biggest known, but the skeleton is also superbly preserved and in 3D which is incredible.

Ok, so the news is still new. I have a new paper out today naming a cool new pterosaur: Skiphosoura bavarica (Bavarian sword-tail), from the Late Jurassic of Southern Germany. The full paper is here with all the info: www.cell.com/current-biol... Artwork by @serpenillus.bsky.social.

From season two of the Wheel of Time - Dónal Finn as Mat Cauthon (my favourite character). This image appealed to me because of the lighting, the mood and the challenge of trying to capture a likeness with only part of the face visible. #TheWheelOfTime

After 16 months and 103 layers it's finally finished... "A Portrait of Dilophosaurus" #Art #Palaeoart

The new Homotherium paper has me very excited and reminded me I made a whole life-size Smilodon sculpture out of paper mache for no reason. Here’s my boy

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... Let's start the day with Eilenodon (2018), a large rhynchocephalian reptile from the Late Jurassic Morrison Formation. The only extant rhynchocephalian is the tuatara, from New Zealand. #PaleoArt #SciArt #SciComm #Dinosaurs #Jurassic

This is not WoT related. I would like to get some thoughts down about the political situation in the USA and they are angry. So please feel free to skip if you are not in the headspace for that, or if you voted for fascism.
