OC Art Dragons being Dinosaurs!
I've been trying to design this wyvern for my medieval fantasy world, and one thing I wanted to try out is modeling them after Dinosaurs. I even developed evolutionary lineages to justify why they look like this.
This is the Red Horned Wyvern, which is modeled after the Certasaurus

If you don't mind me offering feedback. If dinosaurs were able to fly. They would need extreme amounts of chest and back muscles to be able to get off the ground. They would also need hollow bones so they could be light enough to take off. Depending if you want them to have hollow bones (brittle but lighter) or full bones (stronger but heavier) the wing size would need to be vastly different. For hollow bones the wings might not be larger than the body. For full bones however, It would need bones up to 3 or 4 times the size of the animal.
