Lately I have been obsessed with the challenge of making a dinosaur feel like a real animal. Dinosaurs have been so abstracted by pop culture that they have almost become dragons and for me at least it's very hard to see them as real living animals. I wanted to push that sense of "oh yeah thats just an animal alright" PS: There is an easter egg in there. #Art #illustration #drawing #digitalart #photoshop #painting #rjpalmer #artistsoninstagram #arvalis #paleoart #trex #tyrannosaurus #tyrannosaurusrex #dinosaur #acheroraptor #velociraptor #hellcreek https://www.instagram.com/p/CXj9OU6vlvc/?utm_medium=tumblr

A couple of divers come across a familiar face. I really needed to step up my game and try some backgrounds finally.

Oh, no! The Pokemon broke free! It was really intense to find that alpha Garchomp in Pokemon Legends Arceus and I wanted to get that vibe across. #Art #illustration #drawing #digitalart #photoshop #painting #rjpalmer #artistsoninstagram #arvalis #garchomp #pokemon #pokemonlegendsarceus #alphapokemon #dragontype https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ0RtokvuLS/?utm_medium=tumblr

Fatalis is a perfect design. I love him. Something I struggle with in my work is the need to go crazy rendered and tight everywhere(despite the fact that I hate rendering). Thats one thing I tried to focus on avoiding in this exercise, to try and carry more sketch energy to final. #Art #illustration #drawing #digitalart #photoshop #painting #rjpalmer #artistsoninstagram #arvalis #fatalis #monsterhunter #monsterhunterworld #iceborne https://www.instagram.com/p/CYnEhmhvX7K/?utm_medium=tumblr

This morning I did a quickie 2 hour creature design demo for an art school in Spain. I love combining weirdo animals. #Art #illustration #drawing #digitalart #photoshop #painting #rjpalmer #artistsoninstagram #arvalis #creaturedesign #sketch https://www.instagram.com/p/CXzYHUVPiMK/?utm_medium=tumblr

I'm really pleased with the sketch for my Fatalis Monster Hunter piece. I'd love to continue playing with this style. #Art #illustration #drawing #digitalart #photoshop #painting #rjpalmer #artistsoninstagram #arvalis #fatalis #monsterhunterrise #monsterhunter https://www.instagram.com/p/CYsDlSePjfK/?utm_medium=tumblr

I got asked to be part of a massive Smash Bros Ultimate collab where we all got to pick one character from the smash mural to redraw. I couldn't not choose bowser. I'm honestly surprised I never drew Bowser before. #Art #illustration #drawing #digitalart #photoshop #painting #rjpalmer #artistsoninstagram #arvalis #bowser #mario #koopa #smashbros #smashbrosultimate https://www.instagram.com/p/CXMjhqYv5Q5/?utm_medium=tumblr
