Millions of years ago, digital art by @xpilar "Big drawing and writing competition, the prize pool is 50 Steem and 50 TRX" - Darwin!

There was a time when humans and dinosaurs lived on our planet.
People did not know that dinosaurs existed, and dinosaurs, living in their lost world, did not know that people existed in the world.

Everything is clear with people, people are like people, and dinosaurs lived a strange, special life, in a world where the strong chased the weak, and the weak tried to escape from the strong.

Dinosaurs were not distinguished by good manners and they constantly mocked and mocked each other.

Their lexicon was not very extensive and for all the bullying and ridicule, such as fool, weakling, dupe, idiot, half-wit, they had only one word - darwin!

So they lived, until, one day, all of a sudden, a disaster happened, the heavens opened up and streams of water fell on the earth, which did not subside for a long time.

But, one day, the clouds disappeared and those small ones who could save from the deadly waves saw that they were on a small island in the middle of the ocean.

There were not many of them, a few noisy pterodactels and a very large and very sad giant diplodocus.

Pterodactyls decided to spread their wings and fly around the island when they saw a diplodocus standing at the water's edge and looking off into the distance.

Hehe, Darwin, look at that Darwin! - one pterodactel turned to another.

This Darwin was left all alone, a real Darwin, my stomach bursts with laughter when I watch the tears flow down the cheeks of this Darwin.

Yes, Darwin, this Darwin seems to be up to something, Darwin.

Ha, ha, ha, he thinks that Darwin can turn into a fish and swim away from the island, or he will grow wings with feathers to lift this carcass into the air, darwin.

No, Darwin, look, we have wings, Darwin, and they can grow feathers, Darwin.

At that moment, the diplodocus was looking at the horizon, where a small, black dot appeared on the edge between the sky and the ocean.

This point was rapidly approaching and increasing in size.

Noah did not eat meat for a long time, he could not afford to eat an animal that he had to save for the further development of the world, as God commanded him.

Sadly, he took a pigeon out of its cage, which he was supposed to let loose, to search for land, and opened a hatch in the ceiling of the hold of the ark.

A bright light entered the ark, blinding the eyes.

Noah closed his eyes and climbed onto the deck of the ark and ... he saw the ground!

Yes, it was a small but inhabited island.

Noah saw a huge diplodocus and a flock of pterodactels circling over the island.

Noah's mind raced with thoughts of a juicy diplodocus kebab and a pot roast made from pterodactel wings.

At that moment, a lump of thoughts and gastric juices hit the void below the stomach with a loud sound - darwin!

This drawing and story is based on a digital image provided by @xpilar for this competition.

I drew with a graphite pencil on a sheet of A5 paper.

At first, I decided on the arrangement of characters on the sheet.

I had to figure out what pterodactels and the surrounding landscape would look like.

Gradually, everything began to take shape and volume.
