Do you have any tips for prehistoric animal coloration? I’ve been struggling with coming up with new, plausible, and eye-catching colorations for my reconstructions for the past month, and would love to know how you come up with your colorations.
Ahhhh, yes.
It is an endless struggle. Best advice I can give is: have lots of exposure to animal coloration and pattern. The more you know the ABC of nature the easier it gets to recombine the pieces.

Colors are a very complex issue though. So keep in mind the environment of the animal, it's ecology, size, diet etc. Many animals for example need to get their pigments from their environment or diet. Certain patters appear again and again in nature because they are good for camouflage. Some animals have pigmentation that follows fur direction etc.
But at the end of the day, when it comes to extinct creatures, it's best to experiment a lot and consume and learn as much about animal coloration as you can so you can weaponize your mind to quickly puzzle together a new color scheme from an arsenal of snippets you have picked up over the years.

"They Dye By Night"
Tumblr media
How much do you want to bet that the title came first, and the story was engineered backward from that as the writer Frank Doyle (or possibly the editor) giggled at the pun?
Anyway, the stakes of this harrowing story:

Surely a classic of modern horror.

The purple-and-red sheen, the narrowed eyes and brows, the downward outburst of his back hair—it’s all so exquisite, to say the least 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥳

Top Five Insects I’ve Seen - #4 – The Rose Chafer (Cetonia aurata)
The #4 #Insect I've seen - The #rose #chafer #beetle (Cetonia aurata). One of the most #brilliant, #beautiful #insects you can see in the #UK. #InsectWeek #InsectWeek22 #Entomology #Nature #Wildlife #Britain #coleoptera
Surely one of the most stunning insect species we have in the UK – the rose chafer beetle (Cetonia aurata) (Credit: Me) I was initially going to write a list of top five most striking UK insects but alas when I actually put grey matter to the task I realised the list would be mostly, if not exclusively, beetles. Beetles, the order coleoptera, are a huge group. Of all the species described in…

Some cross sections of plant's stem 🌱
The transparent cells in the middle are parenchymatic cells ; green-coloured tissue in the corners is xylem ; in the borders, between two green lines, you also could distinguish a pink tissue : phloem ; finally, there is a thin layer of parenchyma, covered by epidermis.
Xylem transports raw sap (essentially minerals and water) from roots to leafs, while phloem carries elaborated sap (rich in carbohydrates, like sucrose), produced in leafs and distributed in all the plant's cells. Parenchyma is mostly here to maintain the structure and to make the plant grow.
