Meet my prehistoric flying creature persona from the Mesozoic era! Done 100% using only MSPaint. He's a hatzegoptryx, a huge pterosaur as tall as a giraffe. (Google it for information and images, and watch the video on YouTube.) After a very long time of brain-busting to choose my prehictoric persona from either brachiosaurus, baryonyx or hatzegopteryx, I've finally chosen the hatzegopterx because it more closely resembles my personality and physique. Brachiosaurus is more like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Baryonyx is more like Wolverine from X-men. Hatzegopteryx is more like me flying a P-38 Lightning. Also, because it's so much more adorable!
Pterosaurs are NOT dinosaurs, but prehistoric flying reptiles which lived during the time of the dinosaurs. Paleontologists (scientists who study fossils and primitive life) and biologists are still arguing about the true nature of pterosaurs until today. Some found evidence that they had hair. Others announced that they were warm-blooded. So what really were they?

Thank you. While pycnofibres and such were discovered long ago, only just a few years back were they finally accepted by the scientific community. Lots of stuff were discovered centuries if not thousands of years ago but were only recently accepted. Fur, feathers, the lack of horn on the tsintaosaurus, the giant squid, etc. all took a very, very long time before they were finally accepted. Hatzegopteryx here was discovered back in 2002 but only in 2011 was its existence finally proven and stole the throne for "largest flying animal on Earth" from queatzalcoatlus.
I'm well aware of all that :P
As for hatzegopteryx being a larger flier, there isn't really enough known about either one to know what the smaller and upper limits of either genus are.
Here is a forum full of information on integument and even papers on archosaurs, it's where I get most've my info anyways, the community is almost too smart for it's own good.
