Pagurus Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Professional dinosaur artist! I'll bet there must be a couple of kids who would like to do that. Start the day with a smile and get it over with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snolly50 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Please post Elliot's Ichthyosaur drawing. I would like to see it and I am certain there are others as well. Thank you. Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, also are remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. - Douglas Adams, Last Chance to See Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DE&i Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Please post Elliot's Ichthyosaur drawing. I would like to see it and I am certain there are others as well. Thank you. Apparently due to the huge volume of drawings submitted they couldn't return them via post which i thought was a little harsh. Elliot said he was cool about and that he was more of a Dino kind of man artist..! The talk was a real eye opener giving a real insight into the world of paleoartists. With Robert Nicholls standing out from rest. He was quite a funny guy telling us about the long haul flight needed in this career to make a living. But very rewarding...it was a very pleasent evening on the whole. Regards, Darren.
