Some pages from my book ABYSM OF AGES, a foray into recapturing the distant pasts’s view of the distant past, here in grayscale, sepia, and color “plates”
ABYSM Is sort of formed as a nightmare, that of a turn of the century English scientist’s, as they reconcile their belief in their antiquated faiths with their sudden discovery that antiquity and evolution have lurched from the past to devour all they thought they knew
Really all this was just an excuse to draw Victorian-style prehistoric monsters devouring each other.
In the bustling suburbs of a dinosaur city, an Ankylosaurus is approached and applauded by a Gallimimus I made a while ago for his spray paint art, which he is appreciative of.
Whilst I don't have names for them yet, I hope to do more anthro dinosaurs later on, but I think that the city environment is a good start, but can be better. Along with drawing more anthrosaurs, I hope to get better at drawing cities.
a thank you at this point would be unexpected and startling! according to my research, you guys domesticated the horse and invented the plough. nice! we still use those!

[T-Rex with outstretched arms.]
T-Rex: The population of the world in 4000 BC is estimated to be 7 million people! 7 million dudes!
[Close-up on T-Rex exclaiming.]
T-Rex: Dudes! That's not many dudes!
[T-Rex about to step on a log cabin while Dromiceiomimus watches.]
T-Rex: For comparison, New York City is the entire population of 4000 BC all hanging out together. Last year, Apple talked everyone from 4000 BC into buying AT LEAST one iPad each. Twenty-four 4000 BC Earths log onto Facebook EACH DAY, and that's just a website for when you want to share your personal information with a monolithic corporation that never forgets!!
[T-Rex about to step on a woman, with Utahraptor behind.]
T-Rex: When you measure things in 4000 BC earths, things get kinda crazy!
Utahraptor: I demand further examples!
T-Rex: DONE.
[T-Rex turns to Utahraptor.]
T-Rex: I did a search for "Lady Gaga" and it turns out we maintain a Lady Gaga webpage in memoriam of every single person from 4000BC Earth. Sorry, no, that's not right. We maintain SEVENTEEN OF THEM.
Utahraptor: Welcoem to the world of tomorrow?
T-Rex: Yes, welcome folks from 4000 BC! Thanks for being our ancestors!
[Just T-Rex again, looking outwards.]
T-Rex: As a token of our appreciation, we've typed out the word "boner" onto the internet one time for each and every one of you. No need to thank us!
T-Rex: You've been dead six thousand years!
