Hello! I hope you had a great Christmas and are all set to have a good New Year... well, as good as can be expected, anyway. If you've been following recent posts here, or been following me on social media, you'll know that I've been working hard on a new, popular book about dinosaurs, to be published by Princeton University Press. The text is now FINISHED, which is good... but I still have to finish all the illustrations. There are about 50 to do, and I'll be sharing them here as I finish them (my deadline is the end of December, so I'm working hard). I hope you like them. I've decided to do something new: to create illustrations that are composites of pencil lines with digital shading and details. Here's what I've done so far. The only fully finished pieces are the Carnotaurus and dinosauroid, but here you can see a few others that are semi-complete...

Wow, that´s awesome to read! Can we get signed copys from you? And I would love to read your articles about T-rex, Ceratopsians and the Dinosauroid. I like the new drawings, too. Looks like the Triceratops head is covered in keratin..?

Thanks for comments. Once it's published and I have copies -- yes, you'll be able to buy the book from me. Requests noted on text, I'll share some later. Thanks for thoughts on the drawings - the final Triceratops is scaly, not wholly horn-covered (I don't follow that idea).

I'm so incredibly excited for this book to come out!
