Allow me to introduce you to Sonselasuchus cedrus, a new bipedal, beaked and herbivorous crocodile-relative that lived during the Late Triassic in North America

Cretaceous illustration for James Stryker's paleoart project featuring Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops along with cameos from Ankylosaurus and Borealosuchus.

A small rocky stream flowing down from the mountains at sunset and bordered by forest with various animals staring one another down. On the left is an Ankylosaurus noticing and being noticed by a Borealosuchus half submerged in the water below a small cascade. On the right is a herd of Triceratops of mixed ages approaching the stream noticing and being noticed by a Tyrannosaurus family on the other bank. Each group has two adults and a juvenile. The juvenile Tyrannosaurus is based primarily on the proportions of juvenile Tarbosaurus to avoid confusion with Nanotyrannus. There are various birds in the sky flying off both sides of the frame symbolizing that they will make it out of the Cretaceous as the last surviving lineage of dinosaurs.

Watched the final episode of The Dinosaurs tonight. The extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs is always bittersweet. They handled it quite poetically, and of course I'm crying. It helps to be reminded that we live alongside dinosaurs to this day: avian dinosaurs. I love birds.

A bit of fun dinosaur art.

A beachcombing Allosaurus scores big finding the corpse of an Opthalmosaurus on the edge of the Sundance Sea (which puts me in mind of one of favourite Cure songs).

Amidst the chaos of a dying world, Nektann was promised a battle against the most legendary hero.

To win or to die by his blade, the warlord knew no better glory to his name.

The new Tyranid Prime is striding onto battlefields from today and since Games Workshop sent one my way, I went back to 2nd edition Warhammer 40,000 with a bright red and bone scheme and green Lash Whips.

That makes 40 different Tyranid colour schemes what I’ve done.
Quite happy with that.

I think it'd be really cool to make prints of my art and sell them at LEGO conventions. Would y'all purchase prints of these if you saw them at a con?
