Noticed this in the Predator Badlands trailer:

"Hassouna was killed 24 hours after the documentary was announced as having been selected for parallel Cannes section ACID, running from May 14 to 23 alongside the main festival." deadline.com/2025/04/gaza...

Please don't forget that this man was deported to a concentration camp too. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

Been working on King Tyrant promotional stuff today - continuing that with a #FossilFriday #paleoart post. Here's two T. mcraeensis (because of geography) alongside a motherflippin' volcano, because the old artists were right: SOME TYRANNOSAURUS ACTUALLY LIVED NEXT TO BIG VOLCANOES. #KABOOM! #sciart

I am so done with the bullshit in politics here rn. These deaths were unnecessary.

Behold! With lots of dino 🦕love 💕 youtu.be/VAVp_1-Aqc8?...

Hello #PortfolioDay I’m Andy an artist who loves drawing big dead things (mostly dinosaurs). I’ve provided illustrations for museums, exhibitions and scientific papers and I’m looking for exciting projects for the second half of 2025. Find me at www.andyfrazer.com

So long, Val Kilmer.

A discussion on the illusion of "anatomical accuracy" in paleontology (in Italian, but with a [not always perfect] language translator button on top of page).

@markwitton.bsky.social I was wondering, did you know about the exoparia discovery in advance? Because it looks like you factored it in here. Or are you just that good? lol

1. I've been reading up on lizard facial anatomy since the discovery of the exoparia ligament/muscle in dinosaurs. Since the discovery, I've been wondering whether the way the rictus (rictal plate, mundplatte) is frequently portrayed, with an often mucosal appearance as in many lizards, is unlikely

For a while I had been working on and off on a head muscle study on my Gorgosaurus skull with the intent to make it into a reference guide for people. With the new dinosaur cheek paper that just came out I added the new ligament as well.
