A gathering of 8 feathered dragons.

The ancestors of birds are bipedal, carnivorous dinosaurs from the group of theropods, which lived around 220 million years ago. Over the course of evolution, these predatory dinosaurs continuously shrank in size and developed features such as feathers and hollow bones, enabling the transition to birds.
Theropods and Maniraptora: The direct ancestors belonged to agile, small predatory dinosaurs; genetic analyses suggest some of these early ancestors were even herbivores.
Archaeopteryx: This "primeval bird," living about 150 million years ago, is considered a key fossil linking dinosaurs and birds, as it combined reptilian traits (teeth, long tail) with avian ones (feathers, wings).
Microraptor: This tree-dwelling, feathered dinosaur from the early Cretaceous period supports the hypothesis that flight evolution may have begun with climbing and gliding from trees.
Today, birds are systematically classified as dinosaurs in modern cladistics, as they represent the only surviving lineage of this group. Their closest living relatives are crocodiles; both groups descend from the archosaurs.

The scene is created from 8 single images generated with slAIdshow as wrapper tool for text and/or speech-to-image generation in this case using a Flux diffusion model on Pollinations to create the individual dragons. The splat then shows a low-end option to create a small scene in 2026, using ComfyUI with the Triposplat workflow on a RTX3060 with 6GB VRAM.
