  • answered by a-dinosaur-a-day

    Yep! I have three blogs I use a lot

    this one (dinosaurs dinosaurs and more dinosaurs)

    jewish-kulindadromeus (where I post about judaism and social justice and leftism)

    zygodactylus (where I reblog things and do shitposting, memes, fandoms, etc.)

    hope that helps!

  • Well Ellie is in charge of me, and I’m in charge of the blog, so I guess yes?

    Lemur chicken Sinosauropteryx prima, the first non-avian dinosaur whose approximate colouration we figured. Scientists do that by examining levels of melanosomes, organelles in which melanin is synthesized, in the fossilized feathers. Different levels of melanin determine black and brown-orange colours.


    What a cute couple! A lot of species have a wide range of colorations, so I thought it would be interesting if Sinosauropteryx had different patterns and hues too (inspired by The plausible colour morph in Sinosauropteryx chart by Mette Aumala). Also, I tried drawing with no lineart and I think it looks a lot better that way. And for the love of God, I cannot draw backgrounds.


    Also here's an old drawing of Sinosauropteryx I made and didn't post..

  • No - today is not going to be about any writing or fanart. Today is all about the birthday boy! Or, should that be hatchday... no! Not about my autistic brain either. For Nevis is now 2 years old!
