In the wake of the asteroid, eggs hatch. The Edmontosaurus are altricial, and they call for a parent who will never come. The young tyrannosaurs, however, can move on their own. Newborn eats newborn, but neither will live. #paleoart #SciArt #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

BEHOLD the argent bird! A vagrant Argentavis blown off-course has made her way to North America. The family of Barbourofelis have no idea how to deal with a beast smaller than them suddenly sextupling in size. #paleoart #SciArt #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

I might be away for a week. As a (temporary) parting gift take these Ancylotherium allogrooming each other. It was one of those absurd gorilla-y chalicotheres, but I wanted to try doing a chali head that wasn't *too* horsy #paleoart #SciArt #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

"I AM BIG AND VERY ANGRY, GIVE ME YOUR CARRION"

there's a weird cat* outside *not a cat

A fan monster hunter design for Bonboro's #FakesterHunter2026. An ice-spewing bird wyvern that lives in a forest with poisonous water; it uses its abilities to build reservoirs for it to drink. #monsterhunter #originalart #artistonbluesky #fanart #mhwilds #art #creaturedesign #dragon #dragons

First of all, this was the episode I was most excited for. One of the first pieces of art I saw for Surviving Earth was this: Panic, drama, and uncertain futures as a herd of Triceratops, likely rough swimmers, desperately attempts to escape the air itself becoming a death trap, flesh becoming fire.

A pair of Xenosmilus get ragebaited by a gang of Florida scrub jays. This post was available early on patreon.com/yee-qi for supporters $2 and above. #paleoart #SciArt #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

Pleistocene animals coexisting with modern ones my beloved

Shhhhhh, the cookie-cutter cat is sleeping. This is a preview of a piece that is finished and viewable on www.patreon.com/c/yee_qi! Check it out for $2 a month. With this you'll get access to most of my other posts early as well, as well as WIPs!

except crocodylomorphs are in fact doing just as well as dinosaurs after the CPE. Dicynodonts survive but are hit hard, I think Ischigualastia's ultimate victimization is justified in the narrative.

The real reason pseudosuchians weren't in the Triassic segment of #SurvivingEarth: They were, in truth, the filming crew, and obviously you can't be in the same shot as the scene you're filming! #art #paleoart Review of episode 2 below:

grey seals preying on grey seals is kinda wild too. neither are things i typically think about...

#pokemon bringing back a question i posed on discord several months ago...Toucannon does it with Bounsweet, but would any other mon...

What a rude thumbnail to represent the finding of this guy in the wild! It really just has a goofy long snout, the jaws only come out when feeding and especially this picture is just kind of sickly and dessicated because...it's not alive. This is a very reasonable-looking shark in most contexts...

Thank you!!! it was surprisingly hard in this case. I wanted the ground level to have shrubby plants, knee-waist height on a human? But the thing is Amphicyon ingens is as tall as a man and weighs potentially one ton. And this is a plant w/big leaves+fruit so i had to really rethink my scale here

In eastern Nebraska, an Aenocyon ingens plays around with some pawpaw fruits at the woodland edge. Prosynthetoceras walk by, hoping to avoid notice. This post was available early on patreon.com/c/yee_qi for $2 and up. #paleoart #SciArt #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

what the dog doing preview of the full piece on Patreon www.patreon.com/cw/yee_qi, will be publically released rather soon! You can see this guy and all my other guys early for any paid tier starting at $2.

To address the Inostrancevia in the room, I get the impression that the fauna depicted in the episode is probably incorrect. Our protagonist gorgon hails from the Sokolki assemblage, which actually comes *before* the latest Permian with Vyazniki. Megawhaitsia/Archosaurus would be better standins.

A Rex for today #paleoart #SciArt #art #artist #paleontology #artistonbluesky #originalart

Really interesting. It's oddly cute with those stubby little forelimbs pressed against the ground, I wonder why they'd evolve to be so short if it was using them to bear its weight...

for those of you who don't want to click on the full image, here are some Choice Shots. Pic is long and the creature is long and has a wide wingspan, and is unfortunately not very conducive to an eyecatching cropped thumbnail lol. #specbio #art #artist #creaturedesign #artistonbluesky #originalart

A concept for a creature that lives its life in the air and soars on expansible wing membranes called Heaven's Archer. I wanted to make the "ultimate vertebrate flier" w/ bird,bat,ptero traits. Drawn for a creature design contest. #specbio #art #artist #creaturedesign #artistonbluesky #originalart

I'm not lying when I say I have a lot of new posts in the pipeline. The Patreon will be kicking into gear once again rather soon...here's a preview of my next piece in a series called Perspectives that I've been doing! Featuring everyone's favorite cat-gap carnivoran.
