omg thanks for the shoutout! love to see everyone's pieces here, give them all a follow :)

I would like to thank in this post every artist who joins in nearly every Friday for Flocking Together, a weekly format we host on Twitch and Discord!

It's a stream in which we draw together 4 creatures from deep time. These have been voted on beforehand and each are done within 20 min. Before we draw it we discuss the animals in question, share references and talk about things to keep in mind about them. After the drawings are done people are free to post them and I review them and if you want to post them afterwards I am delighted to repost them, no matter how rough they might be. Here a few examples of the images that are created on stream by artists like @barghest-land, @bornulhuu, @petitepaleoartist, @cypressure, @impulseimpact, @aberrantologist, @katborg82, @the-dragon-girl-27, @veloci-raptor or myself If you wanna join in you can so on Twitch or Discord: https://www.twitch.tv/paleostream

Sorry to bother but what brushes do you use

i honestly use whatever random free procreate brushsets i come across, either on here or shared (totally legally and responsibly) btwn my friends on discord. my favorites i think are from the mr. marker brushset from RSCO, especially the brush tip marker because it emulates the markers i use to draw on paper. among the procreate defaults, i use the Inka, Thylacine, and Technical Pen brushes the most!

lets see if we can't make some headway on the flocking backlog... here's from a few weeks back with Triceratops, Helveticosaurus, Dickinsonia, and Melanorosaurus

Help me pick paleoartworks for my digital print store!

R-L: Aquilops, Kentrosaurus, Velociraptor ⇓

R-L: Sauropelta, Utahraptor, Tupuxuara ⇓

R-L: Barosaurus, Ceratosuchops, Yutyrannus ⇓

R-L: Tupandactylus, Elopteryx and Hatzegopteryx, Linheraptor ⇓

the top 6 prints chosen from this poll will be the first ones released to buy from my shop in a couple weeks! these will be roughly postcard-sized and $10-15 apiece depending on demand—this initial printing is going to be small in order to test if this will work out for my store. if this is successful i will be able to expand to offer more and larger prints, provide preorders, bulk orders, and so on...

I'm printing these at my community studio to keep costs down on both sides: you will be buying these directly from me with no Inprint fees. it's a great way to support me (an unemployed transgender paleoartist) on a low budget, so if you want to make sure these will be available + affordable, spread the word and hype me up to all your dinosaur-loving friends, and of course reblog this poll!

thank you for reading and voting :>

Maysozoic 2025 #1: Ceoptera evansae (Middle Jurassic darwinopterid pterosaur)

doing something a little different this year with a randomly generated list of taxa!

Sam's plain hobbit-face grew stern, almost grim, as the will hardened in him, and he felt through all his limbs a thrill, as if he was turning into some creature of stone and steel that neither despair nor weariness nor endless barren miles could subdue. (LoTR VI.3.913)

[cypressure]

reread LOTR recently, having feelings about it (from the top: Eowyn, Arwen, Faramir, Celebrimbor below (i also watched Rings of Power and also have feelings but they are very different feelings.))

Spinosaurus aegypticus
