Reminds me of one of my favorite shirts.
Edit: fixed link, @noahdjango
However, still sort of a dead link since it leads to the old woot offering - it might still be in the top 20 offeringā¦
Edit I see that they are selling it againā¦
Which is it: Is he an atheist or an artist? Fine, I guess he can be bothā¦
Are you sure heās an atheist? Because a lot of the crazier Creationist types are entirely cool with the idea of humans riding dinosaurs:
Dogmatic religious education? In Norway? This is a side of Norway I have never heard about.
that
is
awesome
[@anon29631895 ā āshirtsā dead link? just me?]
cataclysmic climate change killed the dinosaur shirt page.
(not working for me either - nor is the link the the artistās page from it)
hmm it is working now - http://shirt.woot.com/offers/villainous-victorian-velociraptor
I wonder if this thread revived it?
also found the artistās deviant art page:
http://polysoup.deviantart.com/art/Villainous-Victorian-Raptor-155676580
Am I the only one disappointed that the artist didnāt hook the legs up to the wheels so it would look like the 'raptor was running?
I lived for a while in Oslo. I donāt recall ever seeing a church. However, there is this in front of the universityās mathematics building:
Oslo is fairly light on churches luckily. Well, there are plenty of churches but they arenāt much usedā¦ (http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_over_kirker_i_Oslo). About 72% of the population in Norway (http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ateisme) answered they donāt believe in a personal godā¦
But the west-coast, where the artist lives, is basically the Bible-belt of Norway. Some people even queued up overnight for a new translation of the bible a few years agoā¦
Totally worth it. The translator managed to both stay true to the original and breathe new life into the characters. Take Lotās conversation with Eve at the Last Supper, for instance. Such emotion!
Where are the feathers?
[I see Iām not the only one with that issue. But the earliest known Dromeosaurs had *flight* feathers, and itās a good bet that the later ones retained feathers. I canāt see how featherless reconstructions persist. Itās like people like Velociraptor as an icon, but donāt check up on the research on Dromeosaurs as actual animals.]
āSo, Eveā¦ how about we put a little salt on that apple?ā
Thatās just morbid. Even for someone who grew up reading Grimmās
It just got it. Itās a VELOCIRAPTOR VELOCIPEDE. Dāoh!
I know, I knowā¦
This design has been around since 2006ā¦ at least.
