I might do a non-pterodactyloid-pterosaur-a-week drawing challenge. So I can create a big composite stack. Which one should I draw next? (also, do feel free to bash on my work - technique, style and accuracy)(I need some constructive criticism to take in with every drawing)

This is a big deal because, in > 200 years of research, we've never had any hints about how non-pterodactyloids walked. All trackways known to date belong to pterodactyloids: short-tailed, long-armed pterosaurs of Late Jurassic and Cretaceous age. (Walking azhdarchids pictured)

New 'holy-grail' pterosaur paper by Jean-Michel Mazin and Joane Pouech announcing a new ichnotaxon, Rhamphichnus. That's right: we finally have non-pterodactyloid pterosaur tracks, and textbooks need rewriting. Yes. (My of it below). https://t.co/wSLSwvdfHV

Probably my best non-pterodactyloids in flight to date, if it helps. Shows what we've been discussing here as goes flight leg and toe posing.
