A Veritable Herd of Animated Dinosaurs!

As you may have guessed, I like dinosaurs a lot.  I like animation a lot.  And I love animated dinosaurs.  So the past couple of weeks have been awesome in that respect.  Firstly, the first episode of David James Armsby's "Dinosauria" is out and it is beautiful!

Armsby also posted this incredible making-of video and I don't know what impresses me more: the cancelled "All Days" series, the sculpture, or the "Dinosauria" series scrapbook.

And there's a teaser for the upcoming second episode.  Baby Troodons!  Fuzzy Pachyrhinosaurs!

And on top of all this, Dr. Mark Witton joined the "Fantasy/Animation Podcast" for an episode about "The Land Before Time", where they discuss the strangely intertwined history of dinosaurs and animation and the film's place in the Dinosaur Renaissance.

Art of the Day!

I can't believe it's already the penultimate day of Sci-Art September.  What a great time!  I shared a lot of mostly paleoart and hopped on the "Dinosauria" fanart train:

Thoughts - But Also Mostly Sketches - From TetZoom 2021

So TetZoom 2021, which occurred about a week ago and ran all day and into the night, was an absolute blast!  This was the second ever TetZoo Convention I've ever been able to attend and I really really hope they keep the online/livestream portion of the show.  Handy Sketchbook on my knee, I took a lot of notes on the presentations and here they are, though considerably cleaned up: 

One of the highlights of the show was getting to attend the Paleoart Workshop, which I wisely snapped up tickets for as soon as I could.  And so I drew this beautiful Kronosaurus along with our teacher Mark Witton.  What an awesome experience!
