Spinophorosaurus Middle Jurassic, 167 Ma, Africa
The discovery and study of this sauropod illustrate the scientific process; this dinosaur was first thought to have spikes on its tail, and the low posture often seen in traditional depictions of sauropods. After innovative research in 2020 involving 3D models of the skeleton, the new Spinophorosaurus reconstruction may have implications for understanding the life posture of other dinosaurs as well.

This year I was SO thrilled to win one of @seanchaidh7 's Fandom Trumps Hate auctions, and she was kind enough to agree to continue her amazing portrait series for The Old Guard!
The details here are so perfect: Andy's axe providing a glimpse into the Scythian-like steppe landscape, and Quỳnh's liquid hair and the bathymetric pattern on her clothes -- every time I look at them I find new things to love! I adore these characters, and Ash's thoughtful presentation of them is perfect!

WONKA (2023) dir. by Paul King
id : a digital painting in dark red overtones. Eddie is leaning back in his seat at a dnd game, dice and a screen in front of him. He is looking towards the viewer. A gold silhouette of an ornate chair is superimposed to the plain wooden chair he is sitting in./end id
Artwork for part 2 of What weather they shall have is not ours to rule by @misprinting as part of the @steddiebang
this was a surprisingly difficult drawing to paint and i cannot hope to do justice to the original scene so. do yourself a wonderful service and go read missprinting's fic.
