Here’s some ruff concept work for a new book project I’ve started. I guarantee, the story is totally different from my other book, and has nothing to do with dinosaurs or any other kind of extinct primordial beast. It just happens to have a small and very minor role featuring a prehistoric Pterodactyl. That I promise.

Whatever the story is, I'm buying it for that AWESOME pterodactyl alone. Love it, man!

I thank you for the comments.

Gabriel, those little designs are actually really large pieces of candy stuck to his wings. But any one could have made that mistake :)

Greg, I can’t help it, I’ve been watching too many Flintstones episodes on Boomerang.

Q/Minkyu and Lissa. You guys are really talented chaps, so I link you now!

Leo, I love the swamp creatures you have posted on your blog. Our monsters should do battle one day; it would be like the coolest Godzilla flick ever. You up for it?

Heck, he sure is made out of crackers and cheese! And his wings are made from pure candy—kind of crazy, don’t you think?
