Warning for eyestrain!

But this was a Sona I made for this years Art fight. It was a lot of fun to give the Mesozoic Madness that grasps my brain a form. The Timelapse is available on my YouTube channel too!

I separated the frames of the end animation of the Sona I made to post a non eye strained version of it! The Alt Text has the paleoart insides originating sources incase anyone was also curious on that too.

A simple static filled illustration of the Sona. The first "flicker" replacing the static inside with Rudolph Zallingers “The Age of Reptiles” mural. The second "Flicker" filled this time with an image from the lovely @chasmosaurs.bsky.social. Its a Sibbick inspired allosaurus from the Day of Dinosaurs, 1991. https://chasmosaurs.blogspot.com/2014/05/vintage-dinosaur-art-day-of-dinosaurs.html The third "Flicker" this time having a piece by Maurice Wilson inside. This Brontosaurus originates from Richard Carrington’s 1956 book A Guide to Earth History.

Been extremely busy lately but have this little archosaurian sculpt that I made at work!

If you can guess the archosaur then I'll gift the first correct guess a doodle!!

I've been inspired on to what is going to be my next big video project as soon as I get everything else knocked out!! I can't give a lot of hits for the surprise is too large of an opportunity to possibly spoil, but it's got a lot to do with the picture down below! #rustleddoodles

Presenting Godzilla The King of The Monsters! This was a old commission for a friend! Hand sculpted, hand casted, and hand painted to be a figure of the King.

Heres to 70 years of being King of the Monsters!

More angles of the little clay #Stegosaurus! #rustleddoodles
A more frontal walking view A top looking down view! I my best assumption of how a stegosaurus would sit? My knee placement here might be a bit off One more view of the stegosaurs from the back looking back at us with its Thagomizers towards us. Best steer clear unless you wanna end up like The Late Thag Simmons.

A little Clay #Stegosaurus sculpted as promised!
Hope this helps for the reference and lemme know what angles you need! Better hurry, a megalosaurid is already eyeing down this stegosaur as a potential meal!

Blue Stegosaurus Neutral Pose Blue Stegosaurus Over it's back looking down at it pose A side three quarters pose with the stegosaurs neck raised and tail lowered A megalosaurid appeared, mouth agape and hungrily staring down the blue Stegosaurus who reacts by raising it's Thagomizers towards its foe! This may be a battle of survival for both of the quarries if they choose to proceed! 🐡

On the road, can't wait to get to the destination.
#rustleddoodles
Sometimes it's fun to have a little buddy while you're on the road. Picture is a sculpt I made of a crested early theropod looking out of the window. (Possibly a Megapnosaurid)

Oh this is gonna be so much fun! We are quickly wrapping things up! If you like #paleoart and you would like to wear your favorite critter as a Pin or have any particular prehistoric animal you would want as a pin, then stay tuned for something big coming! #rustleddoodles #sculpture #SciArt
Blue Plasticine critters lay on my desk next to an altoid can- a Dimetrodon, a Tully Monster, a Coelacanth, a basic form of an Eurypterid and a Diplocaulus. 🐡 The Tully Monster, Dimetrodon and Diplocaulus are ready for casting! 🐡 Various Cambrian Animals colored, painted and drying on a napkin. Sea Pens, Dickinsonia, Trilobites and Ammonites all lay drying. 🐡

Gonna be going back to post the behind the scenes of some of the art I made now that threads are a thing. But I feel like I've posted enough Illustrations for now atleast so it's time to orient to #sculptures and #StopMotion ! So see you guys soon!

A wip of a smaller claymation version of myself and a Suchomimus made from painted plasticine clay. A filming setup for an old work in progress stop motion mini infographic film about Colossal Squids. (Coming Soon) A work in progress Geological Timeline that's a Pin Wall for various Prehistoric critter pins such as Trilobites, Ammonites, Sea Pens and Dickinsomas. My latest work in progress claymation short for the little animated bumper you see when you visit my page here. It was my first mix of sculpted pieces and my 2d art at the same time. The pieces are 3 volcanos, one blue Ceratosaurus ,2 Jurassic conifer plants and a bush .

Little notecard paleoart illustrations I made for friends! Inspired by the little postcard art on the old Sinclair Oil stamps! Capitalasaurus, Mosasaurus and Elasmosaurus, Sharovipteryx and Giganotosaurus and a Titanosaur! Which ones your favorite?

#illustration #paleoart #rustleddoodles
Capitalsaurus, one of my friends favorite dinosaurs, even if it is just Acrocanthosaurus and a dubious genus. A shoal of fish chooses to form a bait ball to try to avoid the hungry jaws of plesiosaurs only to themselves be preyed upon by the apex predator of the cretaceous interior seaway, the gargantuan Mosasaurus! It was a friend's birthday so I drew their favorite prehistoric animal Sharovipteryx! A Pair of Giganotosauruses have a small picnic whilst in the middle of a fern field on a grey and foggy day. The sauropods in the background flee into the forest after watching a relative get both invited to lunch and then turned into lunch.

In the #Jurassic period, a mated pair of #Ceratosaurus were enjoying their feast of juvenile #sauropod. Only to now be denied by a lone #Allosaurus sub adult, hungry and desperate for prey. As the rains return and storm brews, the standoff over the carcass continues.

A small little #workinprogress #sketch of a project that I am currently busy working on to discuss a hypothetical.

The #devonian was an age I wish more folks knew of! There's so many interesting things to think about within the recess of that time period.
