And so I’m 37 now. Half dad’s age, halfway to eternity? How many half-marathons do I have left in me?

One thing I know is that there will be plenty of service.

This is personal, but it needs to be done by the 17th of May, so I made the effort to get flats on it now...

You can make a rideable #Gabumon toy, but the results are a very, very round thighbuster. The metaphorical “concept strength” seems high, as absurd as the beachball thiccness is…

Another week or two of feeding and neither of these sea monsters would be able to submerge. Who knew the seventh trophic level could get this soft?

One from the archives for #FossilFriday. A much younger me with the skull of the giant plesiosaur Rhomaleosaurus cramptoni, in a store room of the National Museum of Ireland, back in 2007.

The skull has been turned upside down here, a view not often seen, as I was inspecting the palate.

The #xenomorph is an intrinsically #nsfw kind of #inflatable. Even without the naked sea reptile doing his best to look lecherous (it's not his forte.)

I'm sticking with the marine reptile painting theme for Fossil Friday. Here's an old acrylic painting of #Liopleurodon and #Metriorhynchus, called "Killing Breach".

The first mural I ever painted (1997) was at the Dudley Museum & Art Gallery, for a temporary exhibition of marine Jurassic fossils. Part of the mural featured a pliosaur; I reworked the pliosaur pose in my 2009 "Leviathan" painting for The Etches Collection.

"I feel like an overfilled pooltoy. *urp* Another week of this and neither of us will be able to dive..."

It's #FossilFriday!

Here are some zooms into my "Deep Blue Buffet" painting (Part 1), for The Etches Collection. It features a bunch of species from the Late Jurassic Kimmeridge Clay: a dead sauropod, "The #SeaRex" (probably #Pliosaurus), #Hybodus, #Hypsocormus, #Metriorhynchus, #Aspidorhynchus, and lots of #Allothrissops.
