Back to some fish along with some mammals!: Blickomylus, Prohesperocyon, Italopterus magnificus, and Leptolepis coryphaenoides #paleoart #sciart

News @ Urwelt-Museum Oberfranken (UMO) in Bayreuth: new ichthyosaur, Eurhinosaurus mistelgauensis, named today after UMO's prime excavation site, the Jurassic clay pit Mistelgau. @olorotitan.bsky.social beautifully reconstructed the to-be fossil on a belemnite battleground typical for the locality.

Zavacephale, just a little domeheaded fellow

Nova pesquisa com tudo o que você queria saber sobre os dinocefálios, os "cabeças-terríveis" que viveram no Brasil muito antes dos dinossauros. Alguns deles eram carnívoros e tinham o tamanho de um urso. 1/2

This one is for me. I had AJ since 2009 (he was a dog the first time I drew him) and during my lowest lows he is always in the back of my head to remind me I have to keep going #art #oc #OCsky #punk #aj

Fishing day

This baby pterosaur is no bigger than my thumb

Natural bristles from a brush glued onto snout, trimmed and painted for a subtle fuzzy display…I think it’s done! I‘ll add some final thoughts on my new Cyonosaurus sculpture in a follow up thread next-

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

Timeline cleanse: do you want to see one of the best fossil animations I have EVER seen? @kiabugboy.bsky.social you are literally a master of the form. BBC or Discovery (whoever pays more) should hire you immediately 🧪🦑⚒️

Monstrocrinus incognatus, a Middle #Devonian #crinoid from #Brazil, Europe and (ambiguously) Algeria. Their characteristic spines are hypothesised to have server anti-predation, hydrodynamics and ✨Aesthetic✨purposes... ...I may or may not have made one of those up. #Sciart #Paleoart

As it's currently #invertefest I've unearthed some old art and I give you... the palaeozoic invertebrates of the revolution! Part of a sequence of historical/palaeofauna images I did a while back.

Annual self portrait finally dropped. Didn't quite come out how I wanted, but there's always next year!

Adjusted for inflation Spirited Away cost $22 million to make. The Triplets of Belleville cost $16.5 million, Cartoon Saloon's Wolfwalkers cost $14.28 million, and Oscar winner Flow cost only $4 million. These critically acclaimed, made by real people films, cost less than this pile of actual vomit.

Yeah! These are my guys~ That's awesome! My guys would like that as well! Aww,sounds like a fun dude! Nice, I will read more

Jack! Little gift for @kidwma.bsky.social Been meaning to draw him for so long #art #jackisreal

140 million year old baby, flattened and unflattering

Jormungandr walhallaensis

Nossas madeiras petrificadas têm uma beleza ímpar. Esta é de Duque Bacelar-MA, tem aprox. 280 milhões de anos e é de uma gimnosperma (parente das araucárias). O Brasil perdeu muitas pelo contrabando de fósseis, compradas por museus e colecionadores europeus. Mas não é o caso desta. #FossilFriday

Racing with the stars

Hello Bluesky science appreciators! I'm a geologist, paleontologist, & (most importantly) an ichnologist, which means I study modern traces (tracks, burrows, etc.) & trace fossils. I teach undergrad students in environmental sciences, write books about ichnology, & do lots of public outreach. 🧪🪨⚒️🐾🦕🦖

Here's the #InverteFest art book August 2025 cover posted in full - how many species can you identify in this piece? I'll post the answer later when I have the time to annotate the image.

If I were to go back in time to see one clam, it would be my dream to go back to the Cretaceous and see Titanosarcolites, a rudist bivalve that grew like giant 2 m wide croissants! (222)

LUPIIINNNN!

made a tutorial for u

The Snailcerers' Journey These are Cuban land snails (Blaesospira echinus infernalis), and they actually [mostly] look like that. *Please* go look them up. You will not regret it. #art #SciArt #invertebrates #snails

last progress shot, otherwise it will be too close to be done and we'll get the WIP curse the next time you see this it will be on the cover of the #InverteFest art book (stay tuned)

This website would be even richer if we had more time. From the recently prepared slides, we are considering a separate sketchbook section www.palaeonavix.org/index.php/pa...

An ephemeropteran, or mayfly. In Germany, we say ‘Eintagsfliege’ (one-day fly). May-be because it wasn't very careful with its wishes: "Just one day in the Permian, only one day!!"
