I did a series on ancient animals in 2021 :D

There were many ancient creatures I wanted to draw after that, but I left them for the future π Among them, I had the idea of ββdrawing more pterosaur for quite a long time...
They are widely known as dinosaurs, but they are actually reptiles. Still many mysteries remain and new scientific facts continue to be discovered :D
Pteranodon
It's probably one of the most famous pterosaurs. I'm a big fan of the One Piece, and I like characters related to Pteranodon, so I've drawn them as fan art a few times π
It could fly, but its large crest and long forelimbs suggest it spent more time on the ground. Recent discoveries suggest it had feathers of more than two colors.
It is famously known as the largest pterosaur.
I somehow felt that the poses of the pterosaurs when they were on the ground were really cute. It would be cute if some of them were flying and some were resting on the clouds...
Thank you!

Oh! I'm drawing them right now... I hope you like my version π

pterosaurs!! quetzalcoatlus was always one of my favourites as a kid

I'm sure there have to be pictures like that! It will for sure be in my sketchbook this week, I'm going to doodle so much π I really need to study his work more. It's so cool that your art teacher recommended him and that you remember now, when you are a fan! π
pikaole
Maybe Oda drew similar illustrations. He is really good at drawing animals and also drew a lot of animals and characters together. There must be several picture books like that. He is really good at not only drawing cartoons but also composing, laying out, and directing illustrations. I remember my teacher at ?academy recommending me to study his illustrations when I was a student. (Unfortunately, I wasn't a One Piece fan at the time, so I didn't study very hard.)
Avalon Bernd
Oh, I am so sorry for the late response! I'm a teacher and have been really busy. The mangaka really puts his whole heart into every page. I wish to one day be as awesome at drawing my own art as Oda, and as good at writing stories. π It would be so silly if one day, when you draw animals like you normally do, Zoro is there because he got lost again. Maybe if you ever draw sloths or manatees or box turtles? Because all of them also have moss heads πππ I just love how easily he gets lost, every time π

The most recent Egghead have a great animation, but before that, the ?comicbook might be more fun. I think it only takes about 20 minutes to read each volume, up to the first 50 volumes. (But as you go further, the dialogue gets longer and more complex, so it may take more time.) I like Zoro the best on strawhat crew π₯Ή I have a Marimo doll and a small figure of him on my desk.
pikaole
I'm glad you liked the drawing. I personally like it too π It's been a while since I drew it, so it's really fun!

YEES the prehistoric babies are coming back!! I loved the collection you did in 2021, I'm so happy to see them returning!
Avalon Bernd
I started watching it on Netflix, and then my husband showed me One Pace, which has better pacing. I think that the live action version was very cool, too! Zoro is really awesome in both versions. I love his friendship with Chopper, he's such a big brother to him. π‘οΈποΈββοΈπ¦πΈ I'm trying to read through the manga when I have the time, but it's huge!!! Being a teacher, it can be hard to find time to finish reading it.
pikaole
Oh, did you watch it on Netflix? I can't wait for season 2. (I've been a comic book fan for a long time.) I don't know why I find big-headed animals so adorable.
pikaole

pd

Yeees how small they are compared to other giant pterosaurs. They are a comfortable size to hug. (As long as they don't get bitten!)
