Oh my god 🤯
Still trotting out this old favourite every #VelociraptorAwarenessDay.
'Princess Joveta sends her grateful thanks to her friend the great Khan for his kind gift of her new pet Velociraptor, with whom she is delighted. Isambart now responds to his name, is taking well to training, and bids fair to becoming a very fine hunter.'

Flocking in traditional media is so amazing to me

Check out the thought process that went into developing our distinctive art style for #benthosgame, starting with the Stoplight Parrotfish. This mischievous guy would become our unofficial mascot and star on the box art! #reefscience 🪸 🧪

Just a #paleostream half-flock today, with #duonychus and #brachycrus :)

Sadly didn’t get to flock today but—it’s still a #fossilfriday 🦕 as I took a visit to the @burkemuseum.bsky.social and did some gestures of the paleontology exhibit. (Ink added later as pens are not allowed)

!!! Spooky guy
Got lucky enough to join another #paleostream. Odobenocetops, Saurosuchus, Pterygotus & Argentinodraco.

Would pterygotus taste the best steamed, fried or cooked in a hotpot?

This weeks #paleostream
flocking features #odobenocetops, #saurosuchus, #pterygotus, and #argentinadraco. That first guy… is really something

Super excited to finally begin revealing parts of this project that I’ve been working on for several years! #benthosgame continues to be an amazing opportunity sitting at the crux of my interests in #scienceillustration and #marinebiology and I can’t wait for people to enjoy it. 🐠
Hi, we’re making a game about coral reefs 🪸 - coming 2025! Follow for #illustration, card previews, playtest opportunities & discussion about translating #coralreef science 🧪 to game mechanics!
