Description Here is another Troodon 'Ratite'. It is really fun to draw them this way! This time I took away the neck and tail stripes, made his neck and head feathers more fluffy, and did other little changes like that.

Again, since Troodon and many other Deinonychosaurs were flightless, they should look flightless, meaning they probably did not have a lot of super aerodynamic wings and feathers.

Hartman's skeletal and a pen were used to draw this.

Enjoy, and have a good day!

Nice! I think he seems happy, like "I may not fly but I sure can run like a cassowary!"

Well... Ratite are extant terrestrial theropods, maybe this is the best way to restore them.
