Proud to have contributed to Evolving Planet's evolution! In 2019 I created #paleoart of Helicoprion, Teleocrater, Parringtonia, Desmatosuchus, Asilisaurus, Deinonychus, Buitreraptor, Citipati, Archaeopteryx & Anchiornis. Still a major highlight of my career and an honor

After about a month of functioning, my laptop's replacement battery has failed completely. I have to wait a month for another one to arrive and hope the problem was with the battery and not the laptop itself.
I can't apologise enough to everyone waiting on commissions or articles from me.

News update. It's as bad. If not worse. We're in ahistorically bad situation.

Here I am in Starkville, Mississippi trekking into Late Cretaceous Prairie Bluff Chalk. Another bygone world left behind by an ancient sea ~67 million years ago. It rained a day before. Big mistake π¬. It was EXTREMELY muddy! Still found a few internal molds ammonites and small oyster shells.

Eliza waits and waits for the return of her father, or at least his body. But as the years go by and no sign of the infamous and recognizable Cochran turns up, the hope turns to obsession, and eventually... to action.
But as the number of casualties from the maintenance and infiltration of the Sleeping Wizards' Shrine build in number, can she find the truth on her own, let alone just get inside?
Sleeping Wizards is heading toward 50% with over 400 backers! We'd love to have you add to this army! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ironspike/sleeping-wizards?ref=1sztuj
After her father disappeared in the line of duty clearing the Sleeping Wizards' shrine of monsters, Eliza has waited,
and waited,
and waited for her turn.
But with the dangers within, one must be chosen in order to enter.
Or just be good at breaking inπ¦πͺ

Vector illustration of Pakicetus attocki, a bizarre early whale relative, laying on its stomach looking at the viewer. This strange animal has long legs with hooved feet, a thick hairless tail, small ears and a long, narrow skull lined with sharp teeth for catching fish and other small animals. Its eyes are positioned up at the top of the skull as in hippos to see over the water line. The artiodactyl is reddish brown with a lighter underside

the sabre-toothed cat yoshi chases a gazelle through scrubland
happy mario day! this is yoshi, though he might look a little different from how you remember him π± yoshi was a metailurin sabre-toothed cat that lived in late miocene eurasia, and its cursorial adaptations were well-suited to open habitats

Drawing in black ink. A red-crowned crane (a kind of self portrait), stands with one leg raised and its head tucked in its wing. A huge, swirling mass of storm clouds rises above it like an oppressive, malignant thought bubble.

I just know that if Hesperornis were alive today, we'd get the occasional case report published about someone getting bitten or pecked, how much they bled/got infected, all antibiotics used over a numerical period, and of course, a picture(s) of the wound.
