Fantastic reconstruction of an Archaeopteryx I saw at Southampton Fossil and mineral show. It was part of an exhibition of fossil replicas exhibited by Southampton University.

Today's not-so-random portfolio artwork (sticking with the Urvogel) is my life-size model of Archaeopteryx (50cm long), which I built for the Cole Museum (Reading University), in 2021. [The mould was built by my friend Jade Hughes.]

Archaeopteryx, a new beginning.

One of my favorite dinosaurs and fossils, Archaeopteryx lithographica. I hope I get to see it in person someday <3

The missing link between dinosaurs and birds, an extinct animal shedding light on such a modern matter. It has always fascinated me. The evolutionary success of so many animals, still present and alive today, coming from millions of years ago.

Even before it was found, scientists expected some animal like Archaeopteryx to have existed, so here archaeopteryx stands in the middle, glowing, as if saying "I'm here! I existed! We are still around, in stone, and in the sky!"

I am submitting this drawing to the art contest Paleoartapalooza, held by the Museum of the Rockies. Wish me luck 🤞

I hope you like it!

I have another paleontology joke for y’all!

Why did Archaeopteryx catch the worm?

Because it was an early bird!

The world ended. 75% of plant and animal life was gone forever. Then tomorrow came. So it goes; happy new year.

A young female archaeopteryx named Tippett has lost her way while traversing the forest floor.

I watched a wee kids' cartoon called Vegesaurs which is about... dinosaur/vegetable (and fruit) hybrids, and I made up my own species called a Berryopteryx! A blueberry/archaeopteryx.

Then I made a tiny little plushie of it. I only had scraps of blue left so I just made it super tiny.

I found some left over stock from the Kickstarters I ran in 2014 and 2017! Velociraptor and Archaeopteryx! My opinions on creating mass-produced plush toys has changed since I designed these, so I doubt I will ever run another kickstarter, so this is your last chance to grab either of these designs!
