Fun Fact: While the name of this dinosaur is well known, many are surprised to learn that it was quite small and covered in feathers!

the sign says it's a diplodocus but i think that's definitely a landscape.

I've not forgiven him yet for pointing at a purple diplodocus and calling it mama.

they have split spines on the cervical vertebrae! you can have two tension lines running down the neck if you do that. they are some distance apart on this diplodocus. i saw some modeling recently which suggested they could reclaim a lot of energy during grazing using this setup- swing in broad arcs

The bulk of Snowball's work debuted in Alan Charig's 1979 book "A New Look at the Dinosaurs" which offers an of-the-time overview of dinosaur science from a traditionalist perspective that isn't too fond of the newly burgeoning Dinosaur Renaissance. It's an interesting read and a great time capsule.

A portrait sketch a portrait of Diplodocus hallorum based on the skeletal mount at the NMNH. As pointed out by Tess Gallagher, studies like this are a good reminder of how bizarre sauropods probably looked at certain angles.

Original artwork available via everydayoriginal.com.

An older drawing from 2018 of Diplodocus.

I would do things differently now, both in terms of reconstruction and the way I draw, but I'm still fond of this one.

Brown and graphite pencils on Moleskine sketchbook paper, 207 x 127 mm.

The diplodocus was widely regarded as the most arrogant of all the dinosaurs, & was often advised to “wind its neck in”

Sauropods are in fact lower density than alligators or elephants.

But if water was up to their chests, they would have had no problem moving through it.

Up to the shoulder & they could have floated at one end, with only front legs touching, thanks to their center of buoyancy being behind the CM.

Happy National Fossil Day! Here is the Phi-Geo Research Group (bokulich.org/%cf%86-geo-g...) in front of the infamous Kronosaurus at HMNH, visiting ichnofossils at Nahant, fossil hunting on the beach in Rhode Island, & with Dippy the dinosaur (Diplodocus carnegii) in Pittsburgh ⚒️
