Balaur's Dinosaur Art

[Balaur]

I have been doing my pterosaur evolution series, due to be published on Deviantart soon. So, here is what I have so far for it.

HyPtA A (Scleromochlus) - Theropod-esque
HyPtA B - Theroposquirrel-esque
HyPtA C - Cute
HyPtA D - Too Freaken Cute
HyPtA E (Preondactylus) - Ugly Furball!



To be honest, even though I drew it, I am dying looking at HyPtA D right now.

I want to invent names for each of them (except HyPtA A and HyPtA E), so any help in appreciated. Thanks in advance!

[Yutyrannus]

Cool! Can't help with names though, I am bad at coming up with names.

[Balaur]

I forgot I posted HyPtA B, but I need to redo HyPtA A. It's too shrink wrapped. Anyways, here's HyPtA C and HyPtA D.

HyPtA D

Okay well, the HyPtA D one is not as cute as is originally was. Heres the original.

These guys are really cute. The most adorable pterosaur ancestors I've ever seen !

Thanks!

I mean, how can you go wrong with little legs, big eyes, and a dense layer of pycnofibers?



Also I have HyPtA A, B, C, and D in order taped to my closet door, so when I wake up like today
i can see how pterosaur evolution occured.

I am working on another detailed picture, not for Thanksgiving, but nonetheless for your enjoinment.

I've been on a "pterosaur high" lately, drawing nothing but pterosaurs the past few days. I have managed to make my first successful sort of 3D looking Istiodactyliid last night, and am working on one of my favourite pterosaurs right now: Sos 2428. It is the only known possibly flightless pterosaur, from the Late Jurassic of North America. It had small wings, a large torso, and the larges pelvis-to-body-ratio of any known pterosaur, all of these impairing its flight capabilities a lot. It is thought to be herbivorous as well.

I am doing a series of drawings, like a storyboard, on Sos 2428, but just now I realized the skeletal I had of the pterosaur was from David Peters. 

I need help finding better references for this very obscure pterosaur. Even if this skeletal by David Peters is accurate, I don't know, as he has some crazy and inaccurate theories and I can't trust a single thing he says right now (only pterosaurs, I haven't seen his other stuff of other prehistoric animals). Any other sources on Sos 2428?

Thank you for anyone who looks!

Sos 2428, playing with a carrot like plant. I'm not colouring this picture.

[Yutyrannus]

Cool! Also, more of Smaug is up in my art thread.

[Balaur]

I have a Sharovipteryx for you.

[Concavenator]

So cute! 

[Balaur]

Don't as why, but I've started a blog. And I get to cover what ever I want!

Nice!

[Balaur]

Thank you!

[Balaur]

I am jumping onto the 'New Deinocheirus' Bandwagon, so here is my interpretation. TO be coloured soon.

[Concavenator]

Looks fantastic!

[Yutyrannus]

Awesome!

[Zhuchengotyrant]

Nice! Deinocherius is one of my favourites!

[Balaur]

Thanks for the kind words guys!

I am working on a book for my cousin on lesser known Mesozoic mammals. This picture is for the book. It is a Repenomamus, not eating a baby dinosaur. I realized after I drew this that their legs actually sprawled. Oops.

[Yutyrannus]

That one is really awesome! Love the colors!
