Description In the Latest Cretaceous of North America, the largest flying animal, largest walking animal, and largest...squamate lived alongside one another.  Quetzalcoatlus northropi, the giant azdarchid pterosaur, had an 11m (36ft) wingspan and could weigh up to 250kg (550lbs).  Mosasaurus hoffmanni, the mosasaur, was 17m (56ft) and I'm having a hard time finding an official weight estimate, but based on similarly-sized aquatic reptiles, probably weighed around 15 tonnes.  And Alamosaurus sanjuanensis, the giant titanosaur, was 30m (98ft) long and weighed 70-80 tonnes.  (Needless to say, this picture is not to scale!)

I couldn't help but be reminded of the legendary weather trio of Pokemon, since these real-life titans ruled the land, sea, and air of their environment.

I'm really happy with how Alamosaurus turned out.  I don't often draw sauropods, and their faces are hard for me to get right.
