Pterosauria

Caviramus was another crested Late Triassic pterosaur. Raeticodactylus likely also belongs to this genus.

I have a laptop that I can do art on so hopefully Caviramus will come out within the next few weeks. I gotta do some practice drawings but I’m finally starting to get used to drawing on a smooth screen. 

Me too man but all the dsungaripterids are last :C

And thank you!

It’s ways away though seeing as its a pterodactyloid and I’m still working on Eopterosauria.

This one was tricky as I couldn’t find any pictures off the fossils, just numeric proportions and a skeletal. The pose it meant to be for display by holding the wings up to flash the red and white markings.

Raeticodactylus had a wingspan of about 1.35m (~4.5 ft) and likely ate fish. It is known from a disarticulated skeleton that includes an almost complete skull. Unusually for such an early pterosaur, Raeticodactylus had a crest. It’s possible that it is synonymous with Caviramus, or they are sister taxa.  

Unfortunately, due to a lot of Real Life business including Doing Research and Being in a Sorority I haven’t much more than sketch things but I shall resume as soon as I am able! It is just difficult for me to sit down at a computer for hours for anything anymore.

This one is another little guy with short wings and big feet. Articodactylus had a wingspan of about 2 ft and was unearthed in Greenland, hence its name.

Also, I’ve been moving and generally pretty busy but hopefully I can get settled and start drawing more again.

This guy is a little bit controversial, it was initially thought that it was in the same genus as Eudimorphodon, and then sister to Caviramus or Peteinosaurus, but I chose to draw it as its own. Basically its a little bitty guy with multi-cusped teeth, long wings, and big feet.

I forgot how much fun it is to work with white with blue shading.
