Description "Because I Can"

Apatosaurus ajax, Allosaurus fragilis, rhamphorhynchid pterosaur. A pencil drawing of a thundering Apatosaurus making life difficult for a group of resting Allosaurs. 

Partially inspired by the huge six foot long Apatosaurus femur I got to witness being excavated in Colorado last year and the fact bull elephants sometimes randomly charge at predators because they feel like it. 

Completed in late August 2014.

Done using graphite pencils.

Awesome piece!  Nice to see some sauropods from you, and aggressive ones at that!

Nice drawing, I really like the details and shading!
Also it's an original idea, mostly you only see them just walking next to each other or the Allosaurusses attacking the sauropod.

Nice.

By the way, they didn't charge at predators "because they felt like it", they would only do it in self defense.

Elephants scare away lions for fun all the time, or just out of anger.

If some bull elephants are high on testosterone, they will charge whatever moves, from predators to rhinos

Forget the testosterone part, and think about in general

And maybe this particular apatosaur is high on testosterone.
