As Jurassic World: Chaos Theory finally comes to a close, I would like to extend a hearthfelt THANK YOU to all the wonderfully talented voice actors who brought my favorite TV characters to life. I’ve followed the Nublar Six’s story since Camp Cretaceous and, as they’ve gotten older, it has felt more personal - with my long-term friends from summer camp growing up and parting off on their own ways..

So here I express my absolute love for the series, and at least share my fanart of my favorite voice actors.

Thank you, for such an amazing show.

On this day one year ago I watched Jurassic World Chaos Theory for the first time!

I had finished all of Camp Cretaceous when I started seeing rumors about Season 3 of Chaos Theory (released April 3rd) and hastily binge-watched the series to catch up. From the first episode, I was already hooked: a major shift in tone from a kids’ adventure to a serious, fast-paced crime drama (with dinosaurs).

Now there was a time jump from the end of Camp Cretaceous; the Nublar Six were now closer in age to myself and my own friends and it spoke to me more personally.

I was also unprepared for the incredibly sweet and heartwarming relationship between Ben and his girlfriend, Gia. I knew I just HAD to draw them (and it turned out to be one of my favorite pieces of art I’ve made). I’m so used to drawing field-guide style scenes of dinosaurs and prehistoric life, it is refreshing to have a human subject here and there, and one with a quiet, intimate moment to challenge my drawing abilities.

this fandom isn’t gonna die, right? This will all amount to something someday and we won’t just be a lost memory at the bottom of the black hole that is tumblr? We WILL keep it alive, right?

Come on guys, we need to Chanel our inner Ben pincus and become immortal

Ever since @yaelokre released this beautiful song, I’ve been wanting to draw a parody with some of my favorite characters, and the latest season of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory was an excuse!

So, for the past week I’ve been busy illustrating the Chaos Crew using graphite pencils, fine tip pens, brush pens, and just about every colored pencil I own. I put so much time into this (even changing up my art style dramatically), I hope it is a fitting tribute to the series, characters and voice actors/actresses who have brought me so much joy and happiness.

Credit to lydia_croft_art for providing inspiration with a Harpy Hare parody of The Fellowship from The Lord Of The Rings.

Head empty, only Ben & Gia.

(Recently started Season 3 of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, and needless to say I'm obsessed).

This was a really fun way to practice character expressions and I'm fond of the Chaos Theory/Camp Cretaceous art style (on paper it isn't too different from drawing characters from The War Of The Rohirrim!)

Drawn with #2 Dixon Ticonderoga pencils, tortillon (smudge sticks), and edited with Prequel App

The first scene of WOTR is on YouTube, I repeat the first scene of WOTR is on YouTube https://youtu.be/JC_DU8zZVhI (AND THEY INCLUDED HAMA AND HIS SONG)

Genuinely surprised that's there's literally…nothing of him yet, nothing on AO3, barely any art (I mean I made some of it) and I mean…let's be real, there's nothing R18 of him either yet. Are the viewing figures that low? Where's the fanboys and fangirls coming out to make the fix-it AUs, pretty art and reader inserts. Damn…do I have to do it myself again?

[aldarquen]

I don’t write fanfics BUT I DREW HIM! ❤️ Don’t you worry OP, I still love Háma

We are approaching the maximum of images you can post here so I thought it was time I make a little showcase of all the formation pieces we covered so far on the streams.

For people who don't know: for several months now I draw one formation or fossil locality every Saturday. The next place we visit is chosen by a wheel of names, which we also constantly fill up again when a new formation is picked.

I try to make it as interesting as possible in my composition and choice of animals and I can tell you this series has been a great training when it comes to constructing these, how I call them, Menageries.

I have to thank a team of friends and colleagues who help behind the scenes with research, creation of size charts and conversation partners when it comes to deciding on the compositions of these pieces. Their help has been invaluable!
