Last art of the year! #SciArt
As a fun pastime on my Christmas break, I looked into basal ceratopsians a bit and doodled them. Turns out they vary from cuddly little guys to beasts that would have made a mighty (and very bitey) steed.
Close-ups of each one in thread 🧵:

Some new #paleoart to see out 2025: a Hybodus shark attacks a squadron of belemnites (Passaloteuthis), which respond by deploying ink decoys of themselves and jetting to safety. Cephalopod ink use is amazingly sophisticated; it's not just a smokescreen! #HappyNewYear, everybody! #sciart #fossil

Well, 2025 it's almost over, and its been a cool year, maybe not the most productive year in terms of paleoart, but such is life, lets hope for a happy and productive 2026:D

decked out in her breeding plumage, arizona's most eligible dilophosaurus debutante takes a much-needed rest by a stream. who knew that competing for a mate could be such an exhausting endeavour?

Manipuloyx, a new alvarezsaur with really fascinating hands!
The condition of the fingers isn't that unusual for the clade but the OSTEODERMS on the hand are new!

Some days ago I made a thread on Pleistocene crocs in honor of Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age, and now I'm bringing it here too.
Let me prefice this by saying that I of course understand their absence, obviously more unique fauna takes priority and I don't begrudge the team their choice
