i have had alot of people in the past either ask me how to draw raptors, or when will i make another tutorial. so here is a tutorial on raptors. grrrr. i hope its understandable and stuff.

This will prolly be edited a few times, i plan to add a new section every now and then. i am open for critique from those who perhaps have had even more experience with dromaeosaurids.

i am always available for redlining.

EDIT LIST:
6/24/10
-added in the halluxes to avoid confusion
-edited a minor wing feather error pointed out by ixerin

Very awesome, and very informative. I am guilty of the "Greyhound torso" syndrome. I will remedy that in all my future drawings.

Where's the sternum? (It seems to go strait from neck to body, and if my assumption is would need significant musculature to hold up the head as well as more musculature particularly around the humerus to hold the prey and/or themselves up when either latched on to prey if they did eat things much larger then themselves or climbing a tree based on the "trees down" theory of the evolution of avian flight.) And wouldn't all of that relative proportion depend on the species?

I agree with that last line. Another common misconception about these animals is that "raptor" is a species.
