I just realized that apparently I never shared this series here on Tumblr??  

I call it Living Paintings, as they are recreations of extinct animals that some artists actually saw and painted from memory, a long time ago.

Made a new guy

[dislocated-thumbs]

guy obsessed with bovids rambles about the Pathologic bulls for literally No reason

i don’t really have anything actually deep to say about them . i just like them a lot and wanted to talk LOL

Plus I think the Patho1/Classic soundtrack and sfx is cool in relation to the bulls . the horns in Boiny Main and Boiny Aggression are probably alluding to how bulls call . the latter’s rhythm also reminds me of a hoofed animal cantering, the closest actual visual match to it I have is this bison lol

When you are near the cattle pens or the abattoir you’ll also hear very deep, distant mooing sounds as if the aurochs are calling out which I think is sick too

[ID: Two framed relief sculptures based on the film The Last Unicorn. One shows the Unicorn and the Red Bull fighting on the edge of the sea. The other shows the Unicorn on her own. Each photo shows a different angle. End ID.]

The Last Unicorn pieces together, made as part of a commission for @sidetrek.

Ancient Auroch Skull, Bos primigenius, Perth Museum, Scotland

Aurochs are the wild ancestor of domestic cattle. Destruction of forests and hunting over thousands of years led to their extinction. The species survived in Britain until the Bronze Age.

This skull was found at Chapleton Moss, east of Forfar, Angus in 1790.
