For #drawdinovember #watercolor sketches on index cards this year. Here’s #Torosaurus, #Qianzhousaurus,#Hatzegopteryx, and #Mahajangasuchus. I’m happy to sell these pretty cheap if anyone wants a small original painting. DM if interested. #Archovember
i coloured (and shaded badly) a sketch by @bird_attitude to turn myself into a hatzegopteryx, my 16th form
various prehistoric fellas from an aggie I did just a bit ago :]
featuring: hatzegopteryx, coelophysis, psittacosaurus, and herrerasaurus✨
Time for an appreciation post on Hatzegopteryx, my favorite pterosaur (not a dino!) and currently the only one we know to have ever held the title of "apex predator" in its ecosystem.
So, the animal discussed above is Hatzegopteryx, a huge pterosaur from the late Cretaceous belonging to the Azdarchid family. The most modern image of this animal is of an enormous, relatively short-necked beast with an exceedingly long skull. Is this just conjecture?
The Transylvanian giant pterosaur, Hatzegopteryx, also went through a revamp!
Guys you'll never guess what. I drew more pterosaurs. The big three of course, Hatzegopteryx, Arambourgania and Quetzalcoatlus.
While I work on my piece for #IslandFaunaWeek, here's a few past drawings of island fauna, extinct and extant. From top left, Hatzegopteryx, Magyarosaurus, Compsognathus, Eryon, Pterodactylus, Dinornis (giant moa) and Strigops (kakapo)
@Lord_Kristine Leaf slugs, Omnidens, Hatzegopteryx, and Epidexipteryx all look straight out of a fantasy/sci-fi novel.

I wanted to share all my #sixdinoarts in one spot, so here are the first four! Clockwise from the top left, the species are Hatzegopteryx, Stegosaurus, Inostrancevia, and Barbourofelis!
Back with another #sixdinoarts! Slowly making my way through the topics, but heres #hatzegopteryx, suggested by @mPSyN6lyJIsatYq! I had fun figuring out a more elaborate scene, and one that showed them as opportunistic feeders in addition to the classic "eats small dino" pose.
#TetZoo Accomplishments of 2017 4: technical papers - produced with, and led by, co-authors - were published or submitted on facial anatomy of the theropod Neovenator, plesiosaur swimming mechanics, the palaeobiology of the giant pterosaur Hatzegopteryx, and more.
Factoid 2 - One large pterosaur, Hatzegopteryx, was prob a big predator, spending a lot of time grounded eating small dinos. Img @MarkWitton
