Hi hello, you all need to see Ray Troll’s kitsch masterpieces:

It’s just too good. this is the pinnacle of cool dad art. I’m getting a t-shirt. Oh yes, i’m getting one. You bet your ass. you bet your bass! Ha! It’s spreading!

Throwback to that one time I painted an entire crayfish and it may have been the drawing I ever took the most time on. And then I never posted it.

So here you go, crayfish study painting + the ref pic I used.

I traced the picture and then freehand painted it by color picking from the ref pic. I mostly wanted to try and reproduce the textures, and also just have fun! It didn't need to be a 1:1 realistic reproduction, and in fact I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, I think it's really satisfying to look at.

I’m drawing fish for Lent and sharing daily on my patreon discord server! 

Here are fish 1-5 :D

Did you guys know that the most recent version of sharks have fins that are kinda leg like and they like to walk up onto land?

Hey yall, welcome to my Tumblr gallery! Here are some of my most well known/favourite pieces of work I've made (alt text will tell you what's happening).

If you couldn't tell I have a focus on the reptilian side of palaeontology and especially subjects that have strong ties to aquatic environments.
