And closeups don't work quite as well for this one because basically I didn't have that much time, so I used a larger brush and wasn't super careful so the shapes and edges are quite messy up close. But it was interesting to do a kind of different style.

Anyone know what's going on with this strange looking kangaroo...

So this was a redo of a drawing from 2023, here's a comparison of the two. Mostly I was focusing on fixing tone across the image as in the 2023 one it looks a bit incoherent when the image is small. But also wanted to redo particularly the clouds and some of the vegetation.

And as always some closeups because bluesky really compresses images...

Well this is as done as it's going to get. Tiliqua frangens, a megafauna skink from pleiocene and pleistocene australia with large pointy scales feeding on spring wildflowers. #palaeoart #palaeoart #reptile #lizard

Set of 3 bat drawings, from 2021 #bats #mammals. I lived really near a bat colony then and would see them all the time :)

Still having issues with the scales so going back to a rock formation drawing I intended to finish over one afternoon in march (definitely taking a lot longer than that)

Photograph is not coming out very well but I got business cards for a conference soon :)

this is basically done but for some reason I cannot get the scales to not look much too flat :|
