Something is coming to the channel, a very cool and exciting new video that ties in with "Cruel River". For my new viewers who may have not seen it, it was one of my earliest project and a homage to the infamous opening scene of Walking with Dinosaurs Episode 3 "Cruel Sea". Check it out here in preparation for the follow up!

I'm sure most of my viewers have seen the amazing work of ‪@ali-awada‬ already, but if you haven't, one of the recently featured dinosaur is my model. This is an Ankylosaurus I made couple years ago, prior to my channel, that Ali repurposed into a Euoplocephalus. Check out this video if you want to see it alive and well in Jurassic Park!

And let me know if you'd like to see this model making an appearance in Pre-History as well.

"In the year 2165, Time Traveling is finally made possible. A series of Trail Cameras were sent back and installed in the ancient forests of Hell Creek, to observe and study the amazing prehistoric wildlife. Now, for the first time, the footage capturing the great T.rex is being released, although things didn't go completely as planned."

This was a little idea I had for a Pre-History entry, while touching up on my T.rex model. Focused on improving the rendering quality of the model and the environment. It's definitely experimental, and I would love to hear what you guys think about this format!

Sorry for the lack of videos last few weeks guys. Things are happening behind the scenes, but I've also been very busy with work, also got a little sick, and some personal matter happened in my family that made me feel a little down. But we are powering through.

To pick myself back up, I spent several hours touching up on my T.rex model. Despite going through many iterations already, there are still things I feel the model can improve on. And it is THE T.rex after all so it's worth the effort. I think I am quite happy with how it looks now and is prepping it for an upcoming project.

If you have any NAME suggestions for our Male and Female T.rex pair, leave a Comment down below!

To all my fellow paleo fans, this is a really good video explaining the many reasons why the Spinosaurus is such a fascinating animal to study and try to uncover. The creator ‪@enchirid1on‬ is also a very nice guy, he didn't have to but he personally reached out to me to ask for my permission first before using my animation for visual aid in the video. Check it out!

In light of recent events at Dinocon, the subject of AI generated content used in paleo art has once again resurface. I don't think there's anything I despise more in the current state of the internet than those AI slop plaguing every platform and every media. But it's especially disheartening when it touches my sacred ground that is paleo art. One of the reason I started making my own 3D dinosaur animations last year, was because I was so sick of seeing AI dinosaurs on my timeline, and I wanted to do a small part in combating it.

To be honest with you guys, because I am an adult who have been working in the art and graphic design industry for over 10 years, I already fear for the future that AI content is going to take over from many years ago, and there is nothing to stop it. Because the world is ran by greed, that's just the way it is, and AI generated images is just way too cheap and efficient that it ultimately won't matter what the artists who still have the respect for art say, the corporation pays the artist, and we need to eat too, but if they see that using AI is far more profitable than hiring artists, eventually they WILL. So artists either will have to learn how to adapt and use AI in their work, or find another profession, that most likely utilize AI in some way too.

As bleak as that may sound, I do think that there's hope for the Paleo art sphere, so long as people like me and you guys who appreciate TRUE human-made art still exist, and let our voices be heard. So long as we refuse to let corporate greed and soulless algorithm ruin the sanctity of prehistoric life, and the wonders of the natural world that is so much grander than our collective human existence in the first place.

This Sunday, July 26th, is the One Year anniversary of when I came back to this channel and started making paleo animations. What started as a passion project ended up becoming so much more, and it's all thanks to you guys who watched and enjoyed my artistic creations, and I am forever grateful. 365 days later, we have now reached 10.000 subscribers, and Pre-History is going stronger than ever!

To celebrate, I have collaborated with ‪@PaleoEdits‬ to make what is quite possibly the best video to feature on the channel yet, all thanks to Carl's amazing editing skills. I am so excited for you guys to see it and celebrate this channel's milestone with me. Be there on Sunday!

To my viewers who enjoy the Timelapse videos, do you guys like it's duration to be about 1 hour long like it is now, or do you prefer the footage to be slower, easier to follow, but the video to go on for 2-3 hours?

Well it's definitely not an easy one to call, borderline impossible, but the first Sauropod to join the roster is the Andesaurus from Cretaceous Argentina! My depiction of this medium-size Titanosaur is also quite speculative, since the genus is only known by very few fragmentary fossils. But it doesn't take away from the beauty of this animal, a reminder that what we know of the prehistoric world today is still only the tip of the iceberg.

Catch the premiere of the animation in a few hours! It will also be my personal tribute to the late Sam Neill, and his iconic line, "They're moving in herds. They do move in herds."
