of Plateosaurus for The hindlimb looks odd because it has a large Psittacosaurus-style membrane between the lower leg and body. This is speculative, but there's no reason to think Psittacosaurus had a monopoly on limb patagia among non-volant dinosaurs.

Look at these lovelies!

Newly described species of extinct giant pigeon, Tongoenas burleyi, lived on Pacific Islands for 60,000 yrs gulping fruit and dispersing large seeds, but was extinct within 200 yrs of human arrival, about 2,850 yrs ago

Fossil plants are an informative and super cool topic for artists, and it really helps when paleoartists put time in to communicate paleobotany so other artists can improve their work. Big thanks to for her informative 2014 blog on DPF fossil plants
