Listen.

I do not have the energy to maintain the menagerie of social media accounts expected these days and I simply do not care anymore. If I feel like drawing furry porn or something I'm gonna just post it, follow me here at your own risk

Hey gang! I'm open for just about any kind of critter or OC you'd like to throw my way! I've done a wide variety of different types over the years and love trying new things too. I'll cut you a deal if given artistic freedom, too! Here's just a small sampling of some of the different ones I've done

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

It's finally here! The next #Sketchasaur short starring the always-charismatic Spinosaurus, whose 'true colors' came out when we viewed it through the water. Let me know what you think!

There is a hotpot of contributing factors but 100% because of the total vacancy of class awareness, folks hold to the propaganda that all poor people are unskilled labourers & when they see a skilled artist there is this immediate perception they belong to a certain economic bracket

I am opposed to AI products and services because of the extra power they require... IN A CLIMATE CRISIS. I am opposed to AI results - texts and illustrations - because they've been created unethically, via theft and non-consensual use of the work of others. Share if you agree.

Well, in the end I decided to make my own reconstruction of Spicomellus, the trendiest dino right now because… well, because it’s just amazing. What an incredible animal. And what a challenge it was to model it

Just for fun, some #paleoart of Ichthyosaurus communis predating belemnites. I deliberately left the brushwork on this one a little looser than usual to give a sense of speed and movement. #sciart #ichthyosaur #fossil #paleontology

Behold! My most complex animated project to date! I learned a lot about Deinonychus and NPR rendering through this, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. What else can we do with this style? Stay tuned!
