$50.1 million could fund over 400 doctorates; 933 years worth of annual curator salaries (UK), or running cost for a millennium-worth of free events like the Lyme Regis Fossil Festival. It is inane that people can accumulate such wealth, and use it explicitly to cause public harm.
Steve Brusatte@stevebrusatte.bsky.social · 3w agoGus the T. rex fetched $50.1 million at auction, a new record price for a dinosaur If this is how much dinosaurs cost now, how can museums afford them? Where does that leave science & education? Will the public still have opportunities to be inspired? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
More Ornitholestes progress!🪶 #dinosaur #paleoart #sciart #artprocess
I'm re-working my #Ornitholestes. I tried, but I the design I was working on didn't resonate with me and the general composition of the scene felt too stiff. I am feeling this one though. 🦖 #dinosaur #paleoart #sciart #sketch #paleontology #science
More progress on Ornitholestes. #dinosaur #paleoart #sciart #science #paleontology #walkingwithdinosaurs #wwd
Shantungasaurus was the Late Cretaceous version of the Giant Eland, basically a member of a group of animals that has no business being as big as they are.

I watched the first episode of #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge, I loved it. It's amazing to see these animals portrayed in such a realistic fashion. 🦏
If you haven't seen the latest episode of Animalogic they discuss the history of debate and the evidence for something the size of #Quetzalcoatlus being able to fly. Check it out here: youtu.be/xQ3qQ2XjX8s?si… I was happy to provide some of my art to this one.
Here's a closer look at the art work that I did for The Gaming Beaver's RIVER RUMBLE! Tournament video. Velociraptor RAPRU and Triceratops TORI. Check out the video here👇 youtu.be/bzu3ZF2lmMs?si… It's a fun video and was a fun project to work on🦖
