Tapejara has a skin crest stiffened on its leading edge (Unwin). I have given it additional stiffeners to make it look a little like a Cockatoo but that may be wrong. The shape is from Walking with Dinosaurs. At the moment I don’t usually put feathers on Theropods with solid bones but that may change with more evidence.
