Imagine a sort of road trip-style paleo documentary with this style and range of fauna, flora and fungi. Not necessarily something made to be especially grand or action filled, although some parts could be, but just someone traveling throughout prehistory and talking about cool prehistoric animals.
@@cactusgamingyt9960 I guess. The music definitely. But it doesn't exactly feel as full as I was thinking. Like a prehistoric road trip not confined by having to show the most iconic or evolutionarily important species.
Yes, I truly believe that in just doing a little exploring of new things and concepts you’ll find interests you never knew you had! Paleoart is indeed the perfect tool for that.
Animalia is one of the most diverse and interesting things this planet has ever hosted, filled to the brim shapes and colors and sizes of all sorts with heavily varied behavior. Paleoart gives the person a glimpse into these worlds, exploring the variety of life itself. It is certainly a tool to teach, yes. But it truly shines in being able to share history itself, in the form of a scene that can be almost anything and people can gain new interests from it and feel inspired. Which I find to be a beautiful thing really.
Really great little video Josch. You explained everything nice and simply and also showed alot of the strange and wanderful creatures of the past many do not know about as well as more familer ones and even intresting behaviours and moments in what these creatures lives might have been.
I wanted to make a very speculative prehistoric documentary, this paleoart just inspires me more than ever to do that. There is so much that can be done with just what we have as fossils and a bit of thinking. I have many creature designs for that doc that are just so utterly wild, with muscles and tissues that we do not know, behaviors that we will probably never witness and stuff. This vid just motivated me to do so more, and yes you can all attack me all you want for using faaaaar more speculation than even Prehistoric Planet did.
Honestly, you have completely redesigned paleoart. It’s not just some art where we can depict the best and coolest prehistoric animals, but it’s also going back and re-defining lost animals that have never been depicted in media. Paleoart is now a chance to show the world our past, and to show them that their world is not so different from ours in a lot of ways. This video made me cry, because I see these animals living and breathing in my mind. Going through their daily life until the day of their death. This motivates me to do some thing with my life as well. I’ve never really gotten into making paleoart, but I have an awesome love for these animals of the past, But I should give it a chance. Keep up the beautiful, breathtaking work that you have put hours and hours into. You have completely changed the mindset of many people, including myself. Pleasant journeys.
Everything you said about paleoart is, without a doubt, true. Paleoart is such a powerful tool in shaping people's perception of these animals and I don't think enough people realise that
Joschua you are one of my favorite paleoartists, your sketches are so cool: the details, the colors, the shades and the context make them so cool to admire. The enormous amount of underrated and obscure species you draw is amazing, thank you for keep making me discover new species. Love your book too 😉
Man,your art really does make these extinct animals feel alive and like they’re real animals.Great work on the art.Also I hope to be as good as you are at art like this.

Wonderful video, nice background music. Nowadays I roll my eyes when I see another photobashed image of T. Rex That is screaming at it’s victim. There are so many more, more interesting animals in history. Keep up the good work, cheers Josh!
I've searched all the creatures in this video so that people can know better which are the majority of them, not all of them are correct, specifically the ones with question marks are the species which I wasn't sure what they were, anyone who knows the name of the erroneus creatures feel free to correct me and I'll edit the comment in the future, thanks for your attention Aquilolamna 0:00 Qarmotus 0:04 Abyssosaurus 0:08 Amplectobelua 0:11 Parahelicoprion 0:14 Arctocyon 0:18 Beelzebufo 0:21 Bulbasaurus 0:25 Bungartius 0:28 Aegiroscassis 0:32 Estemmenosuchus 0:36 ¿Trinacromerum? 0:39 Ammonite 0:42 Diplognathus 0:46 Dendrorhynchoides 0:49 Tapinocaephalus 0:53 Leptoptilus 0:56 Kelenken 1:00 Megalochelys 1:04 Lestodon 1:07 Saurodon 1:11 Henodus 1:14 Megacerops 1:17 Metridiochoerus 1:21 Maraldichthys 1:24 Makaracetus 1:28 ¿Ayshealia? 1:31 Nipponites 1:35 Mylodon 1:39 ¿Purussaurus? 1:42 Megalampris 1:45 ¿Elasmotherium? 1:49 Pachystruthio 1:52 Ordosipterus 1:55 Opabinia 2:00 Protoicthyosaurus 2:03 Polymerichthys 2:06 Trematosauria 2:09 Pinacoceras 2:13 Sandownia 2:16 Sahonachelys 2:20 Amphicion 2:23 Rotaryus 2:27 Soliclymenia 2:30 ¿Waluchelys? 2:34 Iniopteryx 2:38 Shringasaurus 2:41 Bungartius 2:45 Stegotetrabelodon 2:48 Squaloraja 2:51 Spathicephalus 2:55 ¿Cephalaspis? 2:58 Suzhousaurus 3:01 Styracocephalus 3:05 Struthiocephalus 3:09 Tsaidamotherium 3:12 Tropites 3:15 Thalassocnus 3:19 Telephina 3:22 Wulong 3:26 Tupuxuara 3:29 Glossotherium 3:33 Epidexipteryx 3:36 ¿Portunatasaurus? 3:40 Tylacosmilus 3:43 Iniopterygiformes 3:47
And that's why this is one of the most famous paleoartist Even if most of this is not on his deviantart apparently (also where's the rest of the dragon speculative biology)
Well, you're successful as they look really alive and believable! I'm also trying to make my arts as good as yours but i need some improvement Keep the good work !
Wirklich insperiende Arbeiten! Ich habe gewaltigen Respekt vor Malern die sich darin üben ausgestorbenes mit Vorsichtiger Mischung von Wissenschaft und Iganimation zum Leben erweckt! Chapeau! Weiter so! Ps: es sind viele Digitalarbeiten richtig?
I had to click this really quickly also what was the catfish that was eating the monkey? Also what is the turtle who got stuck on a log because of its spikes.
