Envisioning a turn-based, small squad tactical sort of game for 2 to 4 players involving packs of predatory dinosaurs and an open tabletop full of herbivores and environmental hazards. Lots of details and rule systems to work out still, but it's progressing!
Thank you!

A colorful watercolor and ink image of a Tupuxuara pterosaur with wings tucked for a dive.
Tupuxuara
Early Cretaceous
A quick and fun piece made with watercolor, ink, and colored pencil. The head should probably be bigger.

Two small 3D printed gnome wizards face each other, wearing pointy hats and each holding a staff topped with some kind of orb. Hand-sculpted in Blender, starting from a lump of digital clay.

A 3d print of "Yik Balabian," a character created in collaboration with a young relative. Yik is the proprietor of the "Sand Cafe" on a desert world and has a giraffe-like head, four tentacles, and a somewhat human-like body.

Two dinosaur-themed 6-sided dice and a miniature figurine of Citipati, an oviraptorosaur theropod dinosaur from the Cretaceous Period. The figurine is roughly 1:60 scale on a 30mm base.

I got a #3Dprinter! I have an idea for a #tabletop #Dinosaur survival game - would anyone be interested in such a thing?
Dice are my own sculpt, and the #figurine is a Citipati oviraptorosaur model I made, printed at roughly 1:60 scale on a 30mm base. More to come.

Minnesota End of the Ice Age Sometime around 10,000 years ago An ancestor of the loons we see today paddles through a newly-formed lake as the glacial ice sheet retreats, and the moldering remains of a grand old pachyderm, a Woolly Mammoth, sink into the earth. I made this digital painting with Krita and a Wacom tablet, running on Linux.

A lone sauropod dinosaur strides along a rocky cliff edge while warm summer clouds stack in the distance and three rhamphorhynchoid pterosaurs fly high above.
I need to work on improving technique, but watercolor is really fun!

Just ordered one a while ago but it hasn't arrived yet - glad to be reading this!
The words "Liberty, Equality, Community, Ecology" in white bold text over a sunset-colored gradient with an eight-point star icon in the upper right.
What kind of society do we want to build, if we manage to emerge from the dark current moment with possibility and hope?
A loon paddles over serene mirrored waters in the colors of the Minnesota flag, with an 8-pointed star illuminated in the sky.
May the arc of the moral universe bend swiftly towards justice for all of the good people of Minnesota and around the world who have been and are being harmed by the forces of tyranny and hate.

I'm saddened and horrified by what's occurring in my home state. It doesn't have to be this way. This seems like a worthy cause.
It’s been a long time coming but the new Pteros website is finally here! Over the next few weeks, we will be adding new pterosaurs, new exhibits and eventually 3D paleoglobes showing fossil localities. We will also be making a major book announcement in the coming months. Hope you enjoy!

My wonderful sister is a brilliant writer, and recently had a thought-provoking essay published at the Pittsburgh Review of Books, which examines how we think about the emerald ash borer, invasive species concepts, and belonging:
