The jumble of bones looked like porridge. It turned out to be a new species of pterosaur preserved in prehistoric vomit, the latest fossil find extracted from dinosaur excretions. I’ll tell you more in my latest for NatGeo. 🧪
How dinosaur vomit has solved these prehistoric mysteries
A new pterosaur species was recently discovered in the vomit of a dino. But that's just the start of revelations from prehistoric excretions.

Having a lot of fun lately making/remaking some models to learn new techniques, and trying to put as much detail as I can into them.

Fun fact- through my teenage years, Carnotaurus was my favorite dinosaur. Yet it is severely underrepresented in my portfolio 🤷‍♂️

Sometimes you just wanna pose some dinosaurs in Blender, you know?

New #paleoart for #FossilFriday: the giant Meganeuropsis hawks Dunbaria in Early Permian Kansas, reaching to trap it with long, spiny legs. This image is set at the coast to reflect the marine occurrences of Meganeuropsis and Dunbaria fossils - not all Carbo-Permian insects lived in swamps! #sciart

Some of the diverse life that lives among the floating garden beds on a birrin bluestick farm; a cash crop of great value but challenging cultivation.

It’s a bear. Finding the right rendering style for the fur took me a while, but I‘m so happy how it turned out.

It’s one of the patreon stickers for this month and will also be a print later.

Celeste dos Cravos (2025), acrylic gouache (+ tiny bit of watercolour) on hot pressed paper (A3)

The traditional version of the illustration I painted digitally last year, now as I had first envisioned it :)

Yesterday we had a special #MonkeyCruise stream in honor of Jane Goodall! Her contributions to primatology and our understanding of animal intelligence changed the worldview of whole generations and her caring and critical voice will be missed.
