Description
These are caenegnathids, the same group of Oviraptorosaurs that includes the famous Anzu. in the story they are mainly victims of nest.raiders, and don't serve much else of a purpose. The species depicted here is Ojoraptorsaurus boerei, a mid-sized caenegnathid from the south of Laramidia. I have given it some speculative features, the ballon-like air-sacs connected to its crests. It does make some sense, an oviraptorosaurs crest is hollow and porous, and would probably have supported it's sinuses rather than a casque. at least, that's how I remember it.There are a LOT more drawing mistakes with this one however, due to me being unfamiliar with drawing oviraptorosaurs, and the circumstances of me drawing this one were... hectic, to say the least.
