A while back, there was a hybrid design challenge in TheGamingBeaver's Discord server, so me and a buncha peeps got together to make this abomination: Thalazhdar kakoneiros (we didn't get top 3 sadly)
It'd take too long to tell you what it's made of.
Hey, why not! Let's promote our prehistoric work with #PrehistoricPlanet too!
I got you Tarbosaurus, some cool azhdarchids, and le gasp, *the* Opisthocoelicaudia!
@KingRexy328 Had an idea a while ago for some spec evo contest, basically if an azhdarchoid tried to be Tanystropheus
TITANUS AZHDARCHIDAE

Thanatosdrakon. The newly-described oldest giant azhdarchid from south america.

New azhdarchid alert!!! The "Padrillo pterosaur", previously known from just a big humerus, has a name now: Thanatosdrakon amaru. Here's the holotype specimen, from the upper Coniacian-lower Santonian Plottier Formation of western Argentina
@AndyRileyish Hatzegopteryx ("Hațeg basin wing") is a genus of azhdarchid pterosaur found in the late Maastrichtian deposits of the Densuş Ciula Formation, an outcropping in Transylvania, Romania.

@AndyRileyish Balance demands that we post the Hornby Island azhdarchoid. It's also cute

@QuirklessStoner This was a concept I made a few months back for an elder dragon that lives in the vale. Basically it uses bleed, is based off an azhdarchid, and it has general grievous type arms.
That’s another plane, right?
- Not exactly.
Quetzalcoatlus lawsoni
(Based on the skeletal by Brennon Valdez)

I'm glad that it looks like the Quetzalcoatlus in Jurassic World Dominion is being hyped as a massive threat because yea Azhdarchidae pterosaurs were the stuff of fucking nightmares
@MarkWitton and I examined the skeletal proportions, cranial anatomy and sedimentological setting of #Quetzalcoatlus and other #azhdarchids and concluded that they were strongly adapted for quadrupedal walking in terrestrial settings... 2/n
Our view of what #Quetzalcoatlus and other #azhdarchids were like mostly has its genesis in Witton & Naish (2008). Azhdarchids are the most distinctive and unusual of #pterosaurs, and views on how they might have lived have varied considerably (vintage images shown here!)... 1/n
Pterosaur bundle pack. Featuring Cryodrakon, Azhdarcho, Tropeognathus and Thalassodromeus.
