A ★★★★★ review of Mars Express (2023)
Head over heels. Walks an excessively travelled trail in terms of themes and all but it's execution has me completely enraptured. Some real movie nerds made this, man. There's a split diopter shot! In...

Anzu running wild for #maysozoic (as late as I am I could call it Junerassic :D )

my Postosuchus for #maysozoic gets supervised by my helper.

Does Singam enjoys #paleoart ? I can't tell, but surely he likes the sketchbook, as a mat to rest onto.

after the lambeosaurus I went down a rabbit hole of more hadrosaurs in my sketchbook. Here I colored one. With the color scheme I wanted to redo that of one of my favourite toys as a kid (that's why it's a little lame 😅)

May is no more... but my delayed Maysozoic will go on!

Here a thagomizing Chungkingosaurus, a spiny chung and a spiky king for sure

Xiphactinus, a huge and voracious fish from Cretaceous.

Mapusaurus, a knife-toothed bane of sauropods. 5 tons of ferocity, I think that dinosaurs can't get much intimidating than guys like these.

Edmontosaurus for #Maysozoic, I'm starting to mess up the correct order of these animals, it's because I'm late on many of them but I promise, they won't stop coming!

Kronosaurus rules the waves!

#Maysozoic goes on with Stegouros, a little armored fellow.

#Maysozoic day 9: Archaeopteryx, my beloved! they're so hard to draw well x_x
with the colors I wanted to reference the Maurice Wilson illustration but I don't think they fit my design too well :/

I've got some late #Maysozoic entries, together: Rugops and Lokiceratops! Camouflaging mammals for the carnivore's palette and ... Parrot fishes for the ceratopsyd's one (pretty randomly, maybe just for the parrot-resembling beak and my love for bright colors). Bonus sketches included!

Drawing it took 1 and a half listens of dark side of the moon
Colors loosely inspired by some blue-crested lizard

Who said only carnivores and predators can be terrifying? Lisowicia is pretty scary if you are a vegetable! Look at its bark-crushing jaws o.o

entry #2: Guan Long, the crowned dragon is here!

Basically a tyrannosaurid version of a Dilophosaurus (somewhere probably a paleontologist had a stroke when I wrote that phrase down)
