I feel like Trek may be less well known to younger generations due to it being in its heyday before many young folks were born or old enough to have it resonate with them. Whereas Star Wars has been dominating the cinemas and television without much of a gap for decades now.

Adam Bunch @adamisarting.bsky.social · Jul 25

Make no mistake, both are very culturally relevant, though in terms of reflecting society and being topical I feel Trek has had a much greater impact in terms of relevance, though I won’t discount Star Wars’s relevance either as both have their place in mirroring the times we live in.

Elder millennial here. I can say at least from my perspective and many folks I grew up around, Star Wars had a greater pop culture presence once it debuted (even though Trek came first), mostly bc movies often tended to have more recognition and obvious global impact at the time.

😂

Adam Bunch @adamisarting.bsky.social · Jul 15

Yes indeed!

I remember as a kid thinking Dimetrodon was a dinosaur, only later to learn it is NOT! Dimetrodons were a type of synapsid, not related to dinosaurs at all!

That’s a great way to practice! I love using fan art as a way to experiment with techniques and brushes!

One of my fave new beasties from the Jurassic franchise, featuring in the latest film “Rebirth” - the Mutadon!

Loved this fearsome dragon-like critter so much!

Aw thank you!

Do you believe in Bigfoot? I’m a skeptic myself, but I was obsessed with cryptids as a kid.

If this forest creature of legend is real, I can definitely see why they would want to avoid humans.

Thank you so much Mario!

Following my second viewing of “K-Pop Demon Hunters” on @netflix.com , I just had to do some fan art with a summer vibe.

I loved this movie! Hoping there’s a follow-up!

Of course he’s huggable! Lol

This little critter can be found in the deep and dark caverns, his bioluminescence lighting the way as he searches for food.

New character for tonight, from the same world as our friend the avian/marsupial cave creature. Swipe to see the difference in scale between them.

Fun creature design from last night. I envision them as a very large cave dwelling creature evolved from marsupials and avian species.

Probably name them Sergio.

One of my favorite dino puppets from the 1993 film “Super Mario Bros,” their take on Yoshi! It may not be faithful to the game, but that never bothered me as a kid.

Love or hate it, this film has some hilarious moments and is so watchable!

If you recognize this “rock legend,” your childhood was awesome.

One of my all-time favorite movies as a kid (as well as cartoon shows), “The Flintstones” ‘94. I was obsessed with Jim Henson’s Creature Shop, and Dino’s live action counterpart was so expertly designed I remember being in awe.

Throwback to my childhood, with Tasha from the “Land of the Lost” 1991 reboot tv series. Though it only lasted about 2 seasons, I loved it! Animatronic puppet/suits and stop-motion animation? Yes!
