Bog-walk

And here it is, our second Cambrian formation piece! This time we visited the even older Surius Passet from Greenland, our first real deep sea deposit.

As most animals down here have no or only small eyes the color palette was rather limited and most practical. A bigger challenge was however the largest animal here, Pambdelurion, an over 50 cm long panathropod. Making room for it proofed to be exceptionally tricky.

Only a day before the stream discord member Levi finally had a silly yet genius idea: we would use the opening battle from Revenge of the Sith as our our basic inspiration. It's not the first time I turned Cambrian critters into spaceships so that fit incredibly well!

In combination with this fantastic size chart by Prehistorica ( https://x.com/Prehistorica_CM ) I went to work and I think I'm quite happy with the result.

happy neil banging out the tunes day!

saw a tiktok of a mother taking her very tiny daughter to an art museum and she’s just walking around going “whoooa” “woooaah” to everything but then they got to a marble statue of a nude woman lying on her back and the girl points and goes “mommy🫵” and i just immediately welled up with tears and all the comments are just laughing about it and of course it’s funny but how are you not insanely moved by the way art connects everyone on earth from a centuries-old sculptor to a toddler in 2023

They are all white, and some of them hold stars in their mouth. The biggest Ichthyosaur has a star in its eye, and they are swimming against a blue background. End ID.]

You probably get asked this a lot, but how do you draw hands? Even when I'm tracing, they look so weird 🙃

I could probably go on and on and on about hands, but here are some key points I compiled! I LOVE drawing hands, and I never hesitate to use my own as a reference

getting inspired to create stuff is honestly the meaning of life. like i found a great story and now i wanna make a cool story too. literally could there be any better feeling
