About a month ago I did a talk on my dinosaur illustration process, and the video of my talk is now online. The talk centers around the reconstruction of the new species of dinosaur Aquilops americanus that I was hired to do by Andy Farke and Matt Wedel for the Raymond Alf Museum of Paleontology.

Aquilops americanus, a new species of basal ceratopsian dinosaur.

If you want to see many of the images in my talk more clearly and read more about reconstructing Aquilops, be sure to check out my blog post Introducing Aquilops americanus.

Oh, and here’s that ceratopsian family tree video from the end of my talk in full HD glory:

I recorded this track quite a while ago, and now it’s done.

Lone Ninja is the guy rapping about “Trapdoors & Secret Passageways”, which also happens to be the name of one of his recent albums, which you should search out and buy so dude can keep rapping about fighting and other secret Ninja stuff. BLAQ MASQ made the beat. And by that I mean he hollowed out the skull of an elder monk, implanted it with the eggs of Kre’eltrothian carrion-eaters and recorded their hatching process. He then sampled those recordings into his MPC2000XL drum machine and mashed pads in order to tear a rift into deep spirit-time that Lone Ninja & I somersaulted through in order to battle various monsters and wraiths, summon ghouls, and cast mad spells, all of which you can hear in the above track. Hopefully they work (the spells) because then you will sprout roots and strange umbrella-like leaves from your skin and start crawling across the land bashing through thatched-roofed villages and growing/climbing up all the castle parapets, devouring the inhabitants and crumbling them to their foundations with your engrapplizing poisonous vines.
